Its called a Longtail boat because..erm..its got a long tail!
Howdy folks,

Since our last update, we have headed to southern Thailand and began our much anticipated island hopping phase! Arrived at a small, sea-side, town called Ao Nang last weekend and used it as a base for island tours along the andaman coast. Visted pretty much every island worth seeing, Kayaking, snorkling and swimming along the way.

Then We took a boat to Phi Phi Island (so good they named it twice!!) and have been here ever since, soaking up the sun and generally perfecting our lazyness skills. We had some rain early in the week (not as much as back home!), but the weather has really picked up now - so much so that my face is back to its usual shade of red!! My legs are kinda Brown, my middle is still white and my face is bright red - I look a bit like a block of Neapolitan Ice-cream at the moment.

Just got back from a beautiful Sunset tour around the Phi Phi Island area. Other than that we've pretty much lazed around this week, so not many adventures to report. Instead, we'll leave you with a few pictures to mull over, and

There were lots of paintings in this cave that were apparently painted 2000 years ago. I say apparently because they looked suspiciously newer to us!!

You poor unfortunate souls
Hello both, you look like your having a great time, were so envious its untrue. Your missing a wonderfully typical English summer, were getting about a years rain on a daily basis (global warming? bring it on). those beaches you keep insisting on showing us....well we were on Minehead beach the other week so there, lovely "cool waters"as opposed to that horrible warm stuff your having to suffer. and sand should be sand colour not brilliant white. your not convinced are you? ah well. Liam and Matthew send there love. keep safe and god bless..
