Where we purchased our tasty treats
What do we do when we are sick of rice? Eat the next best thing. Well, maybe not the NEXT best thing, but you know. Sometimes it has to be done 😊

We decided that our last night in Pattaya had to be spent doing something we will never forget. I must say that we have accomplished this goal. I know I will never forget the fact that I ate 5 different bugs in Thailand. Mmmmm mmmmm!

Aside from that what have we been up to? We picked up Warren from the Bankok airport and headed down south for the Full Moon Party. The party was insane! Heaps of bars along the beach. All of them playing awesome music. The hardest decision of the night was what to dance to. Our little bungalow wasn't anything to write home about, well, unless you were writing about how crappy it was😊 But we paid for a great location at the Paradise bungalows where the full moon partys all started. It was ok untill we were hurting from the party craving a good night sleep, when the party and music kept going all night for the next 2 days. That sucked. For

Tenneal wasn't impressed with what Anthea and I were doing!
Warren too - he was still getting over jet lag. We are so kind to our friends that visit us 😊

We did manage to sneak in 2 more dives which were really good. There were so many fish and to date they have been the biggest ones I've seen. We were really hoping to see the whale sharks that frequent the area, but no such luck. We were diving with the Pattaya dive crew so it was super fun. Its funny when they(the boys) steal each others masks 20m down. It is also quite humerous to see them pants each other 20m down😉 Laughing under water is not a good idea.

We decided to go to Krabi and stay on the penninsula. After sleeping in such a craphole for the past 4 days we decided to splurge and stay at a resort with EXTREMELY nice rooms and a big pool. We had to take a boat from Krabi town to the end of the penninsula. We pulled up to the shore, but the tide was high and the water was too shallow for the boat to get any closer than it was (which was far away). We

She will still stick it on her face for a picture:)
were almost still waist deep in water and there was no way we could carry our luggage to the shore. So we stole a fishermans boat from the shore and piled everyones luggage in. Mine was the only one that fell out (surprise surprise). I didn't like that. The fisherman also didn't like us stealing his boat😊

So this is what we did for the next 5 days. We tanned, hung out at the beach/pool and even did an island hopping tour for one day (which included going to the spot where "The Beach" was filmed). On the island hopping trip there was really great snorkelling. If we weren't on such a time limit I could have floated there all day. We had good times trying to bean each other in the head with sea cucumbers. I had a heck of a time trying to catch a puffer fish to get it to blow up for Warren. It was just too fast but not to worry, Ill be back for it one day. He will just have to dream of what a puffer fish looks like blown up for now😉

Well I don't have my camera with me
MmmmmMmmmmMmmmm

tasty
but Ill put some Full Moon/Krabi pictures up soon! Check back in a few days!

later!!!!

I sure do miss you guys:( Not as much fun with out you here. Oh yeah, some bar hoe punched me in the face the night before last. I was getting body painted at the time and she just sucker punched me!!! I was so stunned (hey, what else is new though haha) but really, we have no idea why or what happened. two possible senarios: one dive guy had a previous relationship w/ her, or the body painter was her thai boyfriend. What a shocker though!!!!!!!! And how I brag about how great the thai girls are to farang girls. :( Anyhoo, my cousins coming soon...heh heh, cant wait to show her this crazy city. Although I do believe that Rob and I will be moving to Phi Phi soon...cant wait!!! Island life FOR SURE there hee hee...love ya, say hi to eveyrone for me!!
