I knew it but just today some friend gave me some shot.

Early in the FMP morning, suddenly a team of what I guess a kind of thai Navy Seals landed opposite Palita Lodge, in the middle of the disconcerted ravers (<deleted> I've smoked last night??).

Big waves and the officer hit with an oar the sailors, throwing sand in their faces and shouting something.

Somebody almost drowned.

Here some pics:

how much they had to pay entrance fee?

Looks like war!

An anti terrorist drill no doubt.

I mean, If I had a problem with Israelies, where better to strike than the full moon?

Wow, They really have have a entertainment show for the entrance fee.

next month they drop down from choppers

With some flash bombs at night it would be a gr8 draw!

next month they drop down from choppers

they did in 96. most disconcerting.

the thing is that this is obviously done to send a message.

there are other days to run drills and other beaches they could be run on. the combination of place and time cannot be coincidental.

Yeah. There is some conspiracy for sure!

Maybe it was a trial for a new kind of visa run... probably safer than the minibus version.

No better place to have as an audience. I can dig it!

I know that a bar that is normally always left alone got raided. One of the same ones raided in 96 I think....the boss of the bar got taken up in one of the choppers for a 'chat' and ever since then they have left him alone...except for this month.

I expect it's the same old thing of the mainland police and armed forces getting annoyed at how rich the Phangan police are!! or maybe the new police chief is actually doing his job....

They do it not for the tourists but rather for the SEALS, nothing makes you feel more like shit while running around in the surf with sand in your crotch and up your hole while a bunch of rich foreigners drinking coconut cocktails and bathing in the sun on their lounge chairs watch on.

Alpinist - trust me Had Rin beach the morning after full moon is not what you are envisaging!

Lounge chairs and coconut cocktails on Hadrin the morning after full moon?

More like passed out on the sand, or dancing to a trance beat while slurping on buckets

Voila': the rich foreigners drinking coconut cocktails and bathing in the sun on their lounge chairs....
