Some friends planned to join later so I decided to go to cambodia to visit the temples of Angkor Wat before returning to Bangkok to meet them. But first, I wanted to chill on a beach and go diving &#8211; so I went straight to the eastern thai island of Koh Chang. I went diving, scootered around the island and enjoyed delicious food on the beach with new friends. The island also has a few waterfalls and is famous for elephant &#8220;sanctuaries&#8221; (which I didn&#8217;t visit). Long story short, here are some pictures from Koh Chang, above and below the surface.<br \/>\n<div id=\"amw_galleria_slideshow_1\" class=\"amw-galleria-slideshow\"><\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(\"#amw_galleria_slideshow_1\").galleria({\"dataSource\":[{\"image\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-09-957x960.jpg\",\"big\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-09-2153x2160.jpg\",\"medium\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-09-957x960.jpg\",\"thumb\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-09-80x80.jpg\",\"title\":\"Probably the most photogenic rock \\\/ minature reef ever\",\"description\":\" Camera ILCE-6000|\"},{\"image\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-03-1280x853.jpg\",\"big\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-03-3240x2160.jpg\",\"medium\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-03-1280x853.jpg\",\"thumb\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-03-80x80.jpg\",\"title\":\"A sea-flap-flap during liftoff\",\"description\":\" Camera ILCE-6000|\"},{\"image\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-04-1280x853.jpg\",\"big\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-04-3240x2160.jpg\",\"medium\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-04-1280x853.jpg\",\"thumb\":\"https:\\\/\\\/martinries.de\\\/wp2\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2019\\\/12\\\/2019-11_KohChang-04-80x80.jpg\",\"title\":\"Sooo many fish =).
