Pretty Phi PHi............................

---

So today we leave this little relaxing island Koh Lanta (I would say boring- but dont want to offend anyone- as very beautiful).

Louisa had decided to come with us and Timmy was going to stay for a bit..........................................................

It was an 8.00am crossing so we slept the whole way.................................................

Got ok accomodation, its quite expensive on Phi Phi and also difficult to get rooms for 3.......................... with last years tragedy it has left the island with a reduced amount of accomodation as things are obviously taking alot of time to rebuild and get it back to how it was- if thats ever possible.

We just chilled out on the beach for the rest of the day- its not how I imagined to look- I expected it to be alot bigger from any news press that i'd seen.......................................... It has obviously had huge devestating effects to the island but is suprisingly still beautiful to me.......................................................................

We also sorted out our Open Water Diving Award to start tomorrow (something I was very nervous about but knew I should do it) sarh had advised us on doing it at the school she had Princess Divers.... Their school was totally devastated along with the Thai girl who worked in the shop who was due to get married 2 days after and was 6 months pregnant!!!!!!!!!!

This island is full of Scandinavians- all beautiful both girls and boys with great bodies, gorgeous white blond hair and great tans!!!!!! Just what a very white English girl loves to see!!!!!!

That night we went out and had all you can eat Sushi- something i've never tried before- it was ok- not enough to fill me up though really- but glad I tried! Then we ended up in Hippies Bar drinking cocktails on the beach whilst watching a fire show, which was cool, a cute little English 10 yr old boy doing it who was great!!!!
