I am a firm believer in newtons law of every action as an equal and opposite reaction you cant reasonably deny humans are having some kind of impact on climate. I know a big opposing argument is that climate change is a natural occurrence, happening every now and again And there is proof of this happening in soil testing. Im just saying that we as humans are denying the fact we could possibly make any kind of difference in climate, but with the population just passing 7 billion . I dont know . Thats an awful lot of CO2

\nI personally do not think so. Many of these climate scientists are very intelligent and great at numbers...but that's all they are looking at. They are missing the big picture. And again let's not down play the fact that they've changed the accepted name from "global warming" to "climate change". Duh!!

\nAccording to the UN. Approximately 30k people die everyday in Africa. Half of those (15k) from hunger related illness.
\nIt might sound warped or cruel...but without a large human "die off" or some other catastrophic event to kill massive human populations....we will overpopulate the host (earth) before "climate change" does a dam thing!

i agree about the fraud associated with it. i hate al gore. i know a good amount of surfers are into the environmental movement. i'm not, but if they are that's cool with me. i love the ocean, and that's about it. do i believe in climate change? maybe to a point i might believe in it. a friend was showing me a report he did on it in high school, and how factory farming causes more damage to the environment than all the cars, planes, trains, and ships combined, and that a bicycle riding meat eater is doing more harm than a vegan who drives a hummer. he was a car enthusiasts as am i, so he actually was doing the report to see if his driving was affecting it, and to prove people wrong it wasn't. he's by no means an environmentalist or a vegan. al gore loves to eat meat too. i saw that old man ed begley jr do some thing about how his water use is killing the environment, and how he regulates his wife's showers to 5 minutes, and his are only 2. i loved that what a dumbo.
\ni can't stand the epa. they do more harm than good. with all the pollutants in the air it makes sense that it can hurt the planet. the report i read was talking about methane from cow farts is really causing it, and when they're raised for beef, and filled with food to be large when they are killed. this is no joke. i like that approach more than my car or shower killing it.
\nguess what though? i'm not gonna stop eating meat, i'm not gonna go around with nasty smelling balls, i'm not gonna drive any less, i'm not gonna put the emissions back on my cars either. the epa sucks, all these regulations especially from president odumbo are useless. i saw something late night on the whether channel a few weeks ago. actually a few months ago. had a panel of people. they had to be plants. there were three questions. they were
\nwould you be willing to pay more for electric bills if it was made with clean energy?
\nwould you mind if a windmill was built in your neighborhood?
\nwould you be willing to pay a dollar more per gallon of gas if you knew it was made with clean energy?
\nalmost everyone said they're be willing to pay more for energy, and the same for not minding a windmill in their neighborhood. i think still just over 50 percent said they'd be willing to pay a dollar more a gallon if made with clean energy. i say screw that.
\nregardless of what i think, and if the argument holds water i can't stand all this regulation against it. i'll probably be in the minority though.

The ocean levels have been all over the place for millions of years. California was once under water, along with the rest of the SW. Due to earthquakes, techtonic shifting and a million other factors, crevices in the ocean floor and other things have shifted the amount of water and levels around the world. Think of the impact of the giant tsunami triggering earthquakes etc....
\nLong, long before man burned fuel, the climate has change. The ice-caps were once all water... They froze over, now they melt slowly... seems pretty darn natural in the grand scheme of things...
\nThe earth has been scorched. Life has been destroyed on land, all due to natural causes.... The earth was also a giant block of ice... then it warmed back up.... There are internal issues within the earth that we have no clue about.... When things go from one extreme to the other, nature takes its course and reactions happen... slowly.... very slowly.....
\nSh**, didnt they just show a study that we havent even discovered like 750,000 ocean animal species....
\nWe think we know everything... we do not... I try not to be a skeptic, but the climate has changed back and forth long before we populated it... There was no "man or animal" related influence... it was the earth and the atmosphere doing its thing... It will always do its thing.... we cant slow it, stop it or anything....
\nSure, our pollution and discharge of fossil fuels is TERRIBLE.... but blaming climate change on a whole just require more proof and more science than people have been able to provide.... Its just peoples ideas... NO PROOF....

\nThe models of course are not perfect, but one method that can be used to identify model biases is modeling the past. If you run a model study starting in 1950 with 1950 initial data and not change CO2 input, and then run another study starting with all the same data, but change CO2 input through the years, you can compare the studies to what is seen actually say 30 years later in 1980.
\nBut, model studies alone of course are not telling enough, so observational studies and statistical approaches are done as well.

according to what i was taught in school, we have gone through two ice ages of which we know. that means that the earth had to have cooled off, warmed up, cooled off and warmed up again since we are not currently in an ice age right now. this was before we had hummers and mcdonalds and huge beef ranches. so if the earth warmed and cooled on its own back then, whats to say it wont do the same again in the future? what makes us think we can stop it from happening?
\nyeah ive seen those videos of polar bears standing on islands of ice and polar caps melting yeah boo hoo. just because its melting who's to say they might not freeze again later?
\nsomeone mentioned something about more and more species becoming extinct. i think in recorded history there are so many examples of species that went extinct for different reasons, but there are no examples of new species that surged as a result of evolving or adapting. also, francis crick, the guy who got a nobel prize for mapping out dna, after being dumbfounded by the complexity of life, suggested that perhaps dna was sent to earth from outer space on rocket ships by a distant intelligenct life elsewhere. its in his book, "life itself"

it don't have anything to do with surfing. it has to do with weather, and that's the forum it's in. aside from that you bring up some good points though. who is to say there will not be another ice age? the earth goes through temperature, and weather cycles? i think it does. if anything the age we live in now just might be more into the fact it won't get cold again, because of things like factory farming, and pollution, and automobiles which none of those were around yet during the ice ages or other warm periods during the earth's existence. i think it's possible.

If you can read this, you may learn something
Excess warmth in certain places affects the way heat is distributed in the atmosphere. \\'Weather\\' is the observation of the process of heat distribution. Abnormal warmth alters the way heat is distributed, which alters the observable form of this process, the weather.\\r\\n\\r\\nThe recent Northeast snow storm was an example of this. On the same date the most unusual snowstorm was affecting the Northeast, temperatures over a good portion of Saskatchewan Canada were record warm, which finished off an incredibly warm month in Canada from Saskatoon, to Yellowknife, to Baker Lake.\\r\\n\\r\\nWhen Canada can\\'t have normal Canada weather because it\\'s too warm, it says, \\"Here you take it\\" to the Eastern United States, \\"You want to warm me up? Well you\\'re getting my weather now . . .\\" And while Canada is baking, the Northeast gets snow and chilly temperatures.\\r\\n\\r\\nRecord warmth in Canada was also behind the incredibly snowy winters in our region the past two winters. Remember, excess warmth alters the atmosphere\\'s heat distribution process, which alters the weather. The 2009-2010 winter was Canada\\'s warmest winter on record- meanwhile Baltimore and Philadelphia had record seasonal snow. Remember the Boxing Day Storm last December?

Just take the assumption that climate change is a bad thing. Then the opposite (or good thing if you will) would be a static climate, but a static climate is an impossibility (evidenced by changes in seasons). So the idea that climate change is unprecedented and new, and something to get worked up over seems silly to me. Does one just assume that climate was static prior to rises in anthropogenic pollution sources? Doubtful. I think the fact that climate was changing long before we were contributing anthropogenic sources is ignored. Do I believe that humans have contributed to the rise in CO2 levels? Sure, the data doesn't lie (although it can be manipulated to serve different purposes, as every good modeler/statistician knows). It has been proven that anthropogenic sources have elevated carbon levels in the atmosphere and can contribute to radiative forcing (i.e. warming). That said, I do not believe that anthropogenic sources are the primary driver of climate change. And I don't think the meteorological climate record goes back far enough to say otherwise. 150 years is a drop in the bucket when considering the age of the Earth. I think Milankovitch cycles can account for the periods of glaciation and hot-house climates that are evidenced in ice-core and deep-ocean core records. Milankovitch cycles can explain climate changes in Earth's history (primary driver being changes in the Earth's orbit) and there are core records to back it up. Is it a perfect fit, no? But it makes a lot of sense when considering changes in Earth's climate throughout Earth's history versus the last 50-75 years.

"A common skeptic argument is that climate has changed naturally in the past, long before SUVs and coal-fired power plants, so therefore humans cannot be causing global warming now. Interestingly, the peer-reviewed research into past climate change comes to the opposite conclusion. To understand this, first you have to ask why climate has changed in the past. It doesn't happen by magic. Climate changes when it's forced to change. When our planet suffers an energy imbalance and gains or loses heat, global temperature changes.
\nThere are a number of different forces which can influence the Earth's climate. When the sun gets brighter, the planet receives more energy and warms. When volcanoes erupt, they emit particles into the atmosphere which reflect sunlight, and the planet cools. When there are more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the planet warms. These effects are referred to as external forcings because by changing the planet's energy balance, they force climate to change.
\nIt is obviously true that past climate change was caused by natural forcings. However, to argue that this means we can't cause climate change is like arguing that humans can't start bushfires because in the past they've happened naturally. Greenhouse gas increases have caused climate change many times in Earth's history, and we are now adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere at a increasingly rapid rate.
\nLooking at the past gives us insight into how our climate responds to external forcings. Using ice cores, for instance, we can work out the degree of past temperature change, the level of solar activity, and the amount of greenhouse gases and volcanic dust in the atmosphere. From this, we can determine how temperature has changed due to past energy imbalances. What we have found, looking at many different periods and timescales in Earth's history, is that when the Earth gains heat, positive feedbacks amplify the warming. This is why we've experienced such dramatic changes in temperature in the past. Our climate is highly sensitive to changes in heat. We can even quantify this: when you include positive feedbacks, a doubling of CO2 causes a warming of around 3°C.
\nWhat does that mean for today? Rising greenhouse gas levels are an external forcing, which has caused climate changes many times in Earth's history. They're causing an energy imbalance and the planet is building up heat. From Earth's history, we know that positive feedbacks will amplify the greenhouse warming. So past climate change doesn't tell us that humans can't influence climate; on the contrary, it tells us that climate is highly sensitive to the greenhouse warming we're now causing."

I agree ^
\nEquilibrium seems to be natures goal.
\nIf you take any fluid medium, and create imbalance by heating or cooling part of the fluid medium, the medium will change in order to return to an equilibrium state. Meaning if you heat part of the fluid, it will eventually disperse throughout the entire fluid medium.
\nOur atmosphere and oceans are no different. Our dynamic weather here on earth, is driven by the differential heating from the sun on the planet. Since the earth rotates around its titled axis every day, and rotates around the sun every year, different parts of the planet are warmed and cooled both diurnally and seasonally. Warm air rises, cool air sinks, and high and low pressure systems are created because of this to disperse the solar energy around the globe.

Clearly you both have good climate knowledge, so I can respect where you're both coming from. But I think my point has been misinterpreted. Since you have climate knowledge you know that past climate changes have occurred due to natural forcings. However, I think a lot of people are uninformed when it comes to the issue and they just presume that the climate change observed in recent times is something that has never occurred before and climate change can only occur because of anthropogenic sources. I think this is played upon in the politicization of the issue where the narrative becomes skewed and the science is ignored. And I don't disagree that anthropogenic sources have contributed to the rise atmospheric of CO2 concentrations, which I stated previously. Greenhouse gases are obviously a driver of radiative forcing, a positive feedback loop as you said. Can we influence climate, sure. But are we gonna send the earth into uncontrollable positive feedback loop where Earth is a permanent hot-house, ala Venus? Possibly, but the Earth is very dynamic. My main point was that climate is driven by many factors and even if anthropogenic sources are currently influencing the positive feedback loop, they are human-induced and they can be quickly trumped by mother nature. Just as the current rise in anthropogenic sources influence the positive feedback loop, a large-scale volcanic eruption could influence a negative feedback loop (think Little Ice Age from 1600s). Changes in the obliquity, eccentricity, and axial tilt of the Earth's orbit could influence a negative feedback loop. The growth of ice at one of the poles could enhance ablation and influence a negative feedback loop. The ice core records have shown many major shifts in climate over the last 500,000 years, which are shifts on a much grander scale than what we are currently observing.
Again, I'm not saying we should be naive and hope for a negative feedback to just magically kick in one day, nor am I saying we should disregard our anthropogenic sources. I just disagree with the drive to paint the current situation as a doomsday scenario that plays on people's emotion. I'm saying that climate is driven by a lot of things beyond our control, irregardless of how anthropogenic sources are handled in the future. But that said, I'm sure having our own emissions "house" in order wouldn't hurt either

The skeptics often point to the "oh, this has happened before argument". In terms of the quantity of heating, they are correct. Obviously the pre- and post- ice age periods saw profound mean temperature changes. The important difference between those events and our current situation is RATE. Anyone who studies science, from ocean currents to geophysics, knows that the earth normally changes slowly. In the case of the ice ages, we look at glacial advance and retreat occurring over periods between 40,000-100,000 years. Compare that to more recent warming trends, and we see it's a lot different. Also, people hear about a 1 degree mean temperature rise in the ocean and shake their head. Anyone who took chemistry in high school would have learned the simple yet telling specific heat equation: Q=mc(delta T). That is, to raise the temperature of a given mass of some material requires a certain amount of energy. For water, this energy is pretty friggen huge. To raise the mean ocean temperature by one degree is a big deal.
\nThe reason we switched the terminology from "global warming" to "climate change" is not a retreat at all. It's a more practical term to describe the SYMPTOMS of global warming. When it snows, the pseudo-science GOP likes to go on Fox News and joke about "hahaha global warming, what a joke". The truth is, they hold a large stake in coal and petrol and will do anything, no matter how unethical, to keep burning the dinosaur guts. The term "climate change" is meant to more accurately portray our problems to the short attention span of most folks. I do not mean to say that people are stupid, but that they are easily manipulated. Why else would anyone vote for Rick Perry? If the scientific community leaves any room for biased parties to skew the results in a dishonest manner, the interested parties will seize the carpe and deceive the electorate. Hence, "climate change".
\nAnother note: it goes way beyond climate change. Things like 'fracking' (for natural gas) destroy the water supplies of nearby communities. Gas station spills do the same. Did you know that hundreds of gas station spills occur every year? Did you know that just a few years back this happened to communities north of Baltimore City that rely on well water for their homes? Hundreds of these people now need to purchase bottled water to drink because even a proper filter cannot remove the additive chemicals used in petrol. They can't even shower in their homes because the chemicals are most potent when inhaled as part of the hot water shower steam. This stuff has already destroyed dozens of communities in our country, and there is no reason to believe that will change. Green energy is needed not only to limit greenhouse gas emissions, but because the extraction and distribution of fossil fuels create their own set of problems. If we continue to swim against the current instead of going "all in" to find a better way, than we doom ourselves. Just look at the people on both sides of the debate: one on side, you have scientists whose motive is to look at the world around them and objectively describe what's occurring and why, and on the other side you have people funded by the fossil fuel industries. It's not THAT difficult to see why the latter just might have a motive to 'make their own science'.
\nI'm not going to post anymore about this, but I will say thank you to Andrew for injecting some actual real research into the discussion. Please forgive me if I come off as harsh and/or dismissive. It just bugs me to hear people so fatalistic. There are MANY ways we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, and our long-term success as an economy and a community depends heavily on our ability to implement a more sustainable approach.

Yea... Earth's climate has cycled through warming and cooling for eons... Yes, the proof is in the rock record, ice cores, etc. and it's undeniable. Yes, Earth's climate is changing today, as we speak - again, undeniable proof (for anyone with an unbiased agenda). These are the facts, and "global warming" and "global cooling" are nothing new to Earth.
\nThe difference is that WE are here now, and we weren't before. Seven billion of us! We've established ourselves on the face of the Earth because of where it rains, where it doesn't, where, when and how rivers flood and meander, where arable is, etc. Certain places on Earth are not hospitable. Others are. Combine that with the fact that we have an exponentially growing human population, and an exponentially shrinking resource base to support them. If climate change continues at it's current rate, it means BIG changes in both where and how humans live. This is also undeniable. It's certainly not the end of the world, but it's impact will be far greater and effect us much more quickly than we would like to think.

This reply is just to bring a little science to potential causes of climate shifts.
\nThe movie, "The Day After Tomorrow", is a super dramatization that the climate is all of a sudden going to shift, because the Thermohaline circulation in the North Atlantic Ocean all of a sudden breaks down and essentially brings a major shift to the world wide weather patterns...
\nThat was Hollywood of course, and nothing is going to happen overnight. But, it was based on the idea that the oceans play a huge role in our weather and regional climates. Unlike the atmosphere, water stores energy for a much longer time, as we surfers can see in the fall when it takes water temps off the East Coast longer much longer to cool. And, this is the just the surface temperatures... As a whole the ocean, which makes up some 70+% of the earth's surface is a huge storage of energy.
\nWater temps have large impacts on the regional climate of areas (west coasts see this more easily since weather moves from west to east). Take a look at Europe - England is further north in latitude then Newfoundland, but has a much more moderate climate. This is because the warm gulf stream provides relatively warm water off the west coast of Europe.
\nThe gulf stream is more of a surface current, but the thermohaline is driven by ocean density differences by changes in thermo-temperature and haline-salt the create a huge conveyor belt of ocean circulation from the ocean surface to the ocean floors that are interconnected throughout all of our oceans.
\nChanges in the thermohaline circulation in the North Atlantic has been claimed as reasons for previous past climate shifts. In the present day "climate change", in the North Atlantic we look at ice melting (less saline = less density) and water temps rising (less density), which can change the sinking motion of the all important North Atlantic Thermohaline circulation.
\nSo, I'm not replying to anyone in particular, I just wanted to offer a science example to how and why climate shifts can occur.

I wish global warming were legit. I mean real numbers, not inaccurate readings that have only risen 1 degree in how ever many years. As a scientist in the field (not in a lecture hall), the margin of error in these temperature readings from around the globe using various instruments are astronomical. So anyway, this sucks. I'm sick of the cold. I vote for a 30 degree above avg winter!!! And a bunch of Nor'Easters.

\nIn our lifetime, we've already seen sea level rise. It's being measured by satellite as we speak... about 2 or 3mm/year, on average. That translates into the landward migration of the shoreline over time. I've seen the effects of it myself... in Cape May County, wooded areas adjacent to salt marsh that were once high and dry are now swamps where trees are rotting and falling into the back bays. That in itself is not such a tragedy, but you can assume that this is happening in many coastal plains around the world, where salt water is intruding into fresh water wells... where habitats are changing and endangering species... where agricultural land used to raise food or feed for animals is becoming less productive... where people are being forced to move from their dwellings...
\nAnd my guess is... to bring it all back into focus... shoreline ocean currents are changing, and changing the way sand moves and how the waves break. That's not such a big stretch of logic...

If I may add my 2 cents to this discussion I'll just suggest this: Someone who's spent years studying for their PhD and then publishing peer-reviewed research is a bit like someone who's put in the time at a competitive break to get it dialed and earn their spot in the lineup.

NADW and the conveyor belt
You hit the nail on the head, its all about the thermohaline circulation which at the surface is largesly a response to the overlying atmospheric circulation. However, the circulation of deeper waters is a conseqence of density variations which result from differences in temperature and salinty. In areas where surface waters become denser due to cooling/evaporation (increasing salinity) waters will sink to a level where they equilibriate with surrounding water masses. Additionally areas of sea ice formation produce brine which increase water density casuing water to sink and form dense cold water masses. These dense water masses flow away from their source areas. Much of the world's oceans are filled with Antarctic Bottom Water. In the Atlantic, the deepest waters are characterized by North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) that form primarliy in the Norweigan and Greenland Seas.
The NADW forms north of 60N and the NADW water mass moves south at depth bringing cooler, saline water to the South Atlantic and other basins (at depth). This "loss" of cooler water in the northern lats is compensated by the poleward movement of warm saline surface waters to the North Atlantic (via Gulf Stream and/or North Atlantic Drift). These waters are responsible for the mild temperatures Western Europe experiences even in winter. The combination of NADW formation in the north and the movement of warm salty water to higher latitudes is considered a linked system, sometimes referred to as the NADW conveyor belt. Disturbances to this system can cause a change in its speed or even shut it down. In particular, the system can be quite sensitive to distrubances from freshwater inflows. Currently the North Atlantic Basin loses slightly more freshwater via evaporation than it gains frome either precipitation or river runoff. This combined with the flux of saline Gulf Stream water and strong cooling (as in winter) leads to NADW formation. However, were the freshwater flux to increase (as it has in the past when ice sheets melted), an upper, lower salinity layer would be created where this NADW formation would be altered, or shut-down. This would in a sense turn the conveyor belt "off" and a reduction in the flux of Gulf Stream water to the northern latitudes. This in turn means less heat transported to the North Atlantic and generally colder climates. Cold climates would continue until eventually salinity would gradually increase to some critical density whereby the conveyor would switch back on.
It has been postulated that this is what brought the last interglacial to a close (Cortijo et al., 1994; Shaffer and Bendstren, 1994). In addition to orbital forcing (reduction in summer insolation and and increase in winter insolation), a higher interglacial sea level would have led to an increased flux of water through the Arctic from the North Pacific bringing more low salinity water to the North Atlantic. Higher temperatures may have increased in evaporation and precipitation rates adding additional freshwater to the North Atlantic. It is thought that these factors would have been enough to lower surface water density and reduce or even eliminate deepwater production, setting the stage for renewed continental glaciation. Once temperatures fall, the evaporation rates would also have decreased allowing salinity levels to remain low. The only caveat to the above scenario is that all these factors are related in a positive feedback loop which makes distinguishing causes and effects, difficult.
So the take home reader's digest version is that the thermohaline circulation is a critical driver of climate but is also very susceptible to changes in freshwater/salinity fluxes. Were the climate to increase in temperatures to unprecedented levels, there would be an increase in freshwater influx to the system (due to higher temps). Over time were the flux of freshwater to become large enough it would trigger the slowdown or cessation of NADW production. The effects of this would reduce ocean circulation of warmer waters to higher latitudes. And turning off the conveyor belt could trigger a return to cooler climates (in the North Atlantic anyway). So in a way mother nature has a solution to changes in climate whether temperatures increase or decrease.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Sarojin for the first half of our Khao Lak trip in March. In one word: phenomenal! Impeccable grounds, amazing food, comfortable rooms, indoor/outdoor feel bathroom, enormous hotel pool, and the best service I've experienced anywhere. And the BEACH!!!! I was surprised that they don't show how gorgeous the beach is in many pictures. We were honestly shocked when we saw it. If you're looking for a luxurious hotel that stays true to the Thai aesthetic where you will be treated like royalty- you cannot go wrong with the Sarojin.
the rooms: if you can afford it definitely get a pool residence. We had the one closest to the beach and were in love! The staff takes great care of cleaning your room (I swear that the restaurant communicates with them when you arrive at breakfast because every time we returned to the room right afterwards it was always clean!) and of cleaning the pool. We spent many nights sitting on the lanai drinking wine and taking a dip. And it's enormous! [The 2nd hotel we stayed at we also booked a pool room and we were underwhelmed: cold, shallow, and no privacy.] The wine that is offered for purchase in the room is the same price as in the restaurant- but it is pricey. Side note- if you buy a bottle in the restaurant and don't finish it you are allowed to take it with you (so don't leave any to waste!) You might want to stop at the liquor store in Khao Lak town (about 10 minutes away) on the way in and pick up a few of your own. This saved us quite a bit of money. The bed is very comfortable, there's plenty of storage, and the bathroom is to die for! A huge limestone soaking tub with two separate showers (one rain shower) in an enormous room. It was awesome! [If you are someone who likes a lot of tv I'd suggest you bring an ipad or something with movies on it. I'm a reader so I was content with my books, but I do recall the channel selection being limited. Might have been an issue if it rained and we were trapped indoors, but that never happened!]
the food: Their staff is probably the best of anywhere I've ever traveled. They greet you with a smile every day, remember where you like to sit, and within 1 minute of being seated you are greeted with a tray of every fresh fruit juice you can think of (pineapple! guava! papapya!) and sparkling wine. A minute later someone else arrives with fresh croissants and pastries. A minute later someone arrives to take your order. Every meal we had at the Sarojin has flawless service. Not to mention- the breakfast is included in the price (we took full advantage of this because the food/drinks can be pricey)! And they cater to every nationality: there were grits, hardboiled eggs, pastries, multiple fresh fruit options, yogurt, breakfast meats, baked beans, even thai breakfasts. And all of it is made to order. We had dinner at the Ficus and the Beach Bar. Loved both!
The beach: paradise. The Sarojin has a long private beach with private chairs. There weren't more than 15 people on it the entire time we were there. They give you fresh towels, set up your chairs and umbrella wherever you like. Then they come around with aromatherapy cold face towels and watermelon. And you can order drinks from the beach bar/restaurant to be delivered. The water is calm and tropical (nice and lukewarm even in March). If you hit the beach later in the day like we did- make sure to stick around for the sunset. It was our favorite part of the day.
Wifi: free in the room and at the restaurants, and the lobby, and the pool. So we went social media crazy uploading pics and checking in with friends and family. Internet worked great too!
The spa: go. Just go. We had a couples Thai massage and were both very pleased. And it's also indoor/outdoor: nothing beats getting a massage while listening to the real sounds of the jungle!
Excursions: we booked all our excursions in advance through Khao Lak Vista (not the hotel, although it seems they do offer similar tours at higher prices). Khao Lak Vista is FANTASTIC! We did three excursions with them 1) Elephant Trek and Bathing (right around the corner from the hotel), 2) Similan Islands (do NOT miss the day long snorkeling trip- I've never seen such blue water in my life!) and 3) Ko PhiPhi/James Bond Island/long boat/canoeing. They were on time for pick up, the guide spoke English and was hilarious! And they're really flexible. They even threw in a few quick stops to show us a rubber farm to see how the sap is harvested to make rubber (a huge export item from Thailand) and at a local school where we got to help some young children practice speaking English. We cannot speak highly enough of this tour company!
If you are thinking about Thailand and you want the perfect balance of beach, jungle, tranquility, relaxation, spa, delicious food, and outstanding customer service, you really can't go wrong with the Sarojin. My boyfriend and I agreed- we will most definitely be back as soon as possible!

Daniel, the innkeeper, went out of his way to explain the history of the inn and town. He made me feel conformable from the minute i arrived and answered all of my questions. The entire staff was pleasant and helpful, getting with smiles and warmth. We were sad to leave and can't wait to return.

We had such a pleasant stay at McCall House Bed & Breakfast. Besides the charm and cleanliness, every detail for comfort seemed to have been thought through. They've obviously been doing this for a long time for everything, from check-in to the room to the delicious breakfast to run so smoothly.

The house is right next to the major street in town but traffic noise was not a problem. It was nice to be able to walk downtown and to the restaurant we had chosen since all was close by. The room we reserved was in the annex and very easy to enter from the parking lot. The room had all the amenities, including bathrobes and chocolate. The staff was extremely helpful.The menu for the morning breakfast was listed. We were given the choice of ordering oatmeal if we didn't care for the entree. I did that and the oatmeal was fine. My husband had the entree and liked it. The homemade muffins were great. The only down side is that it is an old house and noise carries. The man in the room above us snored loudly. Once he woke me up at 5 AM I couldn't get back to sleep until he finally got up at 6:30.

My wife and I just spent 4 wonderful nights and were immediately impressed with the beautiful condition in which this landmark was kept. We were even more impressed with Daniel Perry and all of the staff who took care of us. Daniel in particular made a point to make sure we were happy in every way, gave us great recommendations for food, activities, and sights around the area, and even gave us a historical tour of the inn. We feel like we made a great new friend and can't say enough about how wonderful we felt and how nice all of the rooms are (and we saw most of them on our tour). We highly recommend the McCall House.

McCall House is a true gem in so many ways...beautiful rooms, excellent location in downtown Ashland, friendly staff. We have stayed there 3 years and been very happy, but this year prices were raised so much we had to reconsider our choice.
Respuesta del propietario
Thanks so much for your kind review. I'm so glad you like our rooms, our location (just one block from downtown Ashland) and our friendly staff! I did want to address your concern about our rates. Although we did raise some prices, not all, the adjustment was slight for the every increasing costs of labor, food, utilities, and taxes. Some room rates were adjusted by $5-$15 dollars, per night, but many rooms reflect the same rates we've had for years. You might consider taking advantage of our promotions, throughout the year. Our current promotion is "Buy 2 Nights ~ Get 1 FREE". This value promotion continues through Februrary 13th. I hope that helps, and thanks again for your review!

TRING, England (Reuters) - Group of Seven ministers raised no problems with Japan's efforts to beat deflation with loose monetary and fiscal policies, Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said on Friday.
"We explained at the G7 that Japan took bold monetary and fiscal action to end prolonged deflation, with the government and the Bank of Japan working closely together," Aso told reporters after hours of talks with fellow Group of Seven finance ministers and central bankers.
"The G7 didn't have a particular problem ... I think Japan's stance is gaining broader understanding," he said.
One consequence of a massive stimulus plan by the Bank of Japan has been to weaken the yen dramatically, sparking talk of a currency war. The yen hit a four-year low against the dollar on Friday.
