Meanwhile, in Songkhla, where there are about 99% fewer tourists:  (BTW, it was the day after a storm so the water wasn't as green as usual there at Samila Beach)

 

Sorry, can never resist the shameless plug for Songkhla.  I love the place.  And anyone worried about the insurgency, that's not in Songkhla Town itself.  I posted up a photo of some of the scary local Muslims on the volleyball court...

 

 

 

 

 

 

"in Songkhla, where there are about 99% fewer tourists" - and about 99% less corruption, compared to Phuket.
