Fishing in Pai. It's the perfect pastime for a little town like Pai. It doesn't require much effort, you just sit back and enjoy your surroundings, and if you happen to have a little snooze, no-one is too bothered. So that's how Tom and I spent the day.
I wasn't too good at the fishing part, but I was really talentedat enjoying my surroundings. I was particularly taken by the amount of beautiful dragonflies and butterflies going about their day around the pond. Tom was a bit better at the fishing portion of the day, and caught two catfish. Both of which we threw back but not before we took a sexy photo!
The fishing ended perfectly at sunset with a massive buffet, including spaghetti bolognese, pad thai, fried rice, chicken curry, prawn crackers, potato chips and barbeque kebabs. This, of course, was also accompanied by a couple of large Changs to wash it all down.
Once we'd had enough fun pondside, we decided to venture into town for cocktails. Jikko was the place of choice, firstly because the cocktails are two-for-one, and secondly, because they are amazing. After sipping on Mojitos, Tom Collins and Long Island Ice Teas, it was back to the house in the pouring rain. What we realised once we left, is that we never paid for our cocktails! Once again I had walked out on my bill. I better not keep making a habit of this... It could be dangerous :P
