Thanks for posting. Great TR, and seemed like an awesome trip! Glad you got to switch to JL on the return. Conrad Samui also looked great.
Like I said, we may be doing a very similar itinerary soon.
How was flying in and out of BKK so many times in that short span, would you do that a little differently on a vacation like that or was it not a problem?

Thank you. The only time I could have avoided a visit to BKK was the nonstop from Chiang Mai to Samui. I chose to save some money with the indirect flight. I only lost a little over an hour because of it. The other times was unavoidable.

Great Report! Glad you got to Amphawa which is a bit off the beaten track. I've also been there a couple of times; one trip it was a Wednesday and it was basically shut. If you want a throw back check out the pictures on my blog.
