Well I think I cursed myself in the last post saying that I would take pictures when the weather got better 😞 The next day the weather was amazing, not a cloud in the sky and we took so many nice pictures all day right through to the amazing sunset, that night we decided to go out for a mad one as we had seen what the beach was like the night before with the fire shows and the amazing beach bars and people going swimming etc... it was definitely the best night of our trip so far, had so much fun jumping in firey skipping ropes and doing the fire limbo to get free shots of who knows what, we got so many nice pictures and crazy videos of the night... and then in our drunken excitable state, we decided to join the other people in the sea! BAD MOVE. I left my bag on the sand, and the next thing I knew it was gone forever 😞 Luckily I had backed all of my pictures up the day before of the whole trip so nothing too valuable was lost. Felt pretty miserable though and did ruin the night a
bit which was a shame. The next day we hired a kayak and went on a 5 minute trip round to the bay next door called ... monkey beach :O ahhh!! I pretty much just stood in the water the whole time while everyone was standing about a foot away from them! The beach was realy pretty though and we got some nice pictures on Seans camera that day. Spent the rest of the day lounging on the beach and had a quiet one that night after the previous night.
The following day we had another quiet one just lazing on the beach saving a bit of money ... then that night all hell broke lose and we ended up going out again. We promised oursewlves we would be carfeul and not go in the sea incase we lost anymore things again. Then however many hours later, after doing more fire limbo and skipping and meeting a group of australians we somehow ended up back in the sea diving in and trusting seans bag with an absolute stranger on the beach. bad move again. The bag got stolen, along with his camera and ALL his pictures 😞 so bad.
So that night ended very abruptly and we both went home feeling angry and upset again which was rubbish after such a good night.
The next day we woke up with the worst hangovers feeling rather sorry for ourselves and went to have a look for his bag but it was nowhere to be seen 😞 Spoke to one of the guys who sell the sunbeds and he said sometimes even the police go around with torch lights at night to spot things that have been left on the sand and we woud have no chance of getting it back! Oh and in his bag were a pair of my new flip flops that i had literally bought that day after losing a previous pair I had bought two days before that! His flip flops were also in the bag so we are now walking around bare foot as I refuse to buy a third pair in one week and he has no money to! My feet are going to be as rough as rocks by the time I get home hahahaha!
Stephen kindly said he would lend me money so I can buy a new camera for
the rest of the trip and so I went and bought a waterproof one so since we both lost them I have been able to take some pretty cool pictures snorkelling and just in the sea.
We have basically been lazing around on the beautiful beach everyday and partying at night but it has been fun and today we went on a trip around thwe whole of Koh Phi Phi on a boat and stopped off at about 6 or 7 different places including the most amazing island you can imagine and Maya Bay (where the beach was filmed) and was so so pretty. My camera was about to die by the time we got there but I managed to get a few pictures 😊
Tomorrow we are leaving for Krabi so that Sean can get his climbing fix as there is a beach called Railay there that is supposed to be one of the best places in the world so we should have an exciting few days there!

MONKEY BEACH! That\'s where I went with Julia and got attacked - STAY AWAY! not only will they attack you, bite you and steal your food - they may steal your camera ;) It\'s actually sunny here, but cold, so I had a BBQ for lunch :) All going well here. Sure Sean is loving walking around bare foot, he is getting more like a Monkey every day! ha ha Sxx
