Hey everyone,
Well we finished up a week of Beaching down on Ko Phi Phi. It took awhile but it grew on us. We found a nicer spot to stay and pretty much swam and snorkelled all day...I know tough life. The thing we found about Phi Phi was there was just too much boat traffic all the time. For those who havn't experienced it a long tail sounds a lot like a helicopter to you when you are trying to relax on the beach! It was still an unbelievably beautiful area, but as humans like to do we tend to wreck natural things with our unatural way.
I did a half day tour (which as 7 and a half hours long!) to some of the smaller islands and Ko Phi Phi Lei (the island from the movie "The Beach" with Leo Di Caprio). The water was so clear when you got away from the main area. The snorkelling was unbelievable! I felt like I was in a fish tank the whole time...more fish then I have ever seen at once, they just surrounded me...totally crazy! I also saw a sea snake...extremely venomous but totally relaxed and paid us no attention.
Overall it was a wonderful place and a great break. Now we are up in Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand and already experiencing a bit more of the Thai-ness we missed in Bangkok and down south. And it is SOOO much cheaper up here so that helps! We are planning on doing a cooking course on an organic farm while we are here and perhaps an elephant trek! It should be great. Not much else exciting to tell you...yet!
Miss you all,
Love,
