paradise in Karon Beach

My new digs in Karon Beach.  After visiting this area 7 different times, I finally found my seclusion up on the hilltops about 1/4 mile from the beach.  I shouldn't tell you this, but this particular resort took me for $29.00 per night.  I know, gouged me right?  ha

As you can see, we had the pool all to ourselves!  If the clouds were not in this picture, way off in the distance on top of a mountain, a Buddha statue can be seen from any vantage point on the island.  It is 200 feet tall and looks to be made of marble, though most likely limestone.  I haven't visited there yet, but you can run your motorbikes up to that spot.  I hear it is spectacular.
