Today we got back from our trip to bamboo island.
It was incredible! We got the longboat over about 3.30 yesterday afternoon landing on the island at 4. When we got there all the day trips were still around so it was packed! We put all our stuff in the tents and played frisbee on the beach and went for a bit of a swim.
We started to walk around the island, which is supposed to take 40 minute the whole way round, but we came across the place where the sun was setting so settled there to watch that. It was so beautiful, the best sunset since arriving on Thailand!
Once it had set we walked back round to the camp and the entire beach was empty! We were literally the only people around which was a little bit creepy as it got darker!
We had bought some crisps and drinks with us so we set up towels on the beach and sat chatting under the stars.
We had arranged to be picked up about 7am the next morning so we would skip most of the tourist crowds so we went to bed around 11ish so we would all wake up on time.
When we woke up the sun was just rising so once we had packed our stuff up we watched that before heading back to the boat.
We stopped at maya bay first which was beautiful. We were there for about an hour and just before we left the crowds of people started arriving! After this we stopped at a couple of other bays where the boys went swimming. Our last stop was monkey beach which was so cool as there were loads of wild monkeys just wondering around the beach!
We headed back to Phi Phi mainland after this and it was only half 12!
This worked out quite well as it is Shane's birthday today! So we have had the whole afternoon to chill out, eat some proper food and catch up on sleep before going our tonight!
