Ok peeps South Thailand consisted of beach after beach after beach! It was bliss.
After leaving Bangkok for the second time we arrived at Koh Samui to get our boat to Koh Phangan ready for the Full Moon party. We had a wicked time drinking buckets on the beach until way after sunrise! We then headed on up to Koh Tao ready for Becs to do her diving course. Unfortunately it didnt happen as poor Bec managed to get a very bad stomach infection ruling her out of action for 2 weeks! So instead we lazed around the pool topping up our tan! Next stop for us was Krabi. We did a pretty cool island tour hitting white sandy beaches and crystal blue waters, snorkelling and sunbathing our way through the days. Heading over to the 'party island' of Phi Phi was like walking into Magaluf but hotter! This is where Bec had her monkey encounter, they were ever so friendly and decided to bite her, leading to 5 separate rabies shots to be had over 28days! We also went to the location that the film "The Beach" was shot, Maya Bay. Not as nice as we thought it would be but pretty cool none the less. And to top off the day, our boat broke down in the middle of the sea at sunset, and we had to get towed back to the island!! Pretty cool sunset thou. After the monkey trauma we thought we'd head to the quiet peaceful island of Koh Lanta. This place is beautiful, spent the days by the pool and on the beach rite infront of our beach resort. On this island Bec managed to add number 3 to her insurance claims when we took the mopeds out for the day and we fell off! After arguing with the bike owners about paying for the repairs, we headed on outta there off to the last island on our South Thailand trip, Koh Samui! We stayed in a pretty plush hotel, marble bathroom and all for just £8 each a night!
So the end of our Thailand experience, and we will definately be coming back again pretty soon as it has everything you need - sun, sand, crystal clear waters and most importantly its cheap!!
