Frog Man Hey Guys,
We've been in Ko phi Phi for three days so far and we don't want to leave but its quite expensive so we will be moving on in the next two days! we are still treating this like a two week holiday but we will get out of that frame of mind when we run out of money ha ha! Phuket was pretty crap it was very package holidayish and also expensive, although it is high season so they can rack the prices right up! The main part of phuket is Patong which was like blackpool in the sun, we stayed further down the coast at a nicer beach and quiter area, got a room for 400 baht a night and hired a moped....don't worry maw it was fine!
We then took the ferry over to Ko phi phi, this place is paradise the pictures that we have taken won't even do it justice it is just a stunning part of the world and would highly recommend it, you can do the busy bar thing or just stay low key it is up to you. Yesterday we walked up to the view point where you can see right
Phuket
Kata Noi Beach over the island....amazing! Then we followed a sign to go down to another beach when I say it was trecherous I mean it was like a mix between I'm not a celebrity get me out of here and Indiana Jones! Gill was jumping about the jungle everytime anything moved I was grumpier than usual, at one point I couldn't see Gill for the mosquitoes that were covering her stumps...it was hilarious! When we finally got to the beach we got some refreshment and then made our way onto a long tail boat to take us back to the main beach. As we stepped onto the beach we were attacked by flesh eating monster ants, they weere trying to bury their heads under our skin it was LOVELY! Later that day we took a sunset boat trip to Phi Phi Lay which is where they filmed the beach, Gill snorkelled for the first time she finally conquered her fear of the water and she loved it, we went kayaking and visited monkey beach where there were monkeys, funny that! The sunset was unbelievable! We met a couple from Bedford and went out that night for some of those crazy whiskey buckets,
