Karon Beach Sunset

I saw a lot of beautiful things on this trip but I am pretty sure that nothing compares to the sunset on Karon Beach. Our flights out of Phuket were red eyes so on the last evening I went back down to the beach about 20 minutes before the sun was supposed to set for some quiet time and picture taking. If you know me, you know that I am a mountain girl through and through, but seriously, this beach sunset was breathtaking.

While I was relaxing on the sand for a bit, a young woman around my age came up to me with a DSLR camera of her own and asked if I would take a few pictures of her. She didn’t speak very good English, but I learned that she was visiting Thailand from Indonesia. Once I took her picture, she immediately reached for my camera and insisted on doing the same because I had “sunset colored hair.” She also insisted that I would look like I was having more fun if I threw up a peace sign 🙂
