Up and at 'em. A 10.30am meet for breakfast turned into 12pm as the struggling gang pulled themselves together. We were surprisingly fresh faced and rallying the troops from the arranged time. The plan was to kayak to Phi Phi lay, the smaller island of the two and also the famous location of Maya Bay. This is where the Leonardo DiCaprio classic "The Beach" was filmed. We had read reviews saying that the trip wasn't for the faint hearted and verged on the wrong si...

As we had the bikes till midday we road around the island in our very own motorcycle gang to use up fuel. For some reason we get very annoyed about leaving 50 baht worth of fuel in the bike on return. It's only £1 but for some reason we would rather risk running out of fuel and being stranded as we try to use every last drop. Guess what else happened..... The flip flop thieves have acted again. This time on Matt's 4 day old pair. The culprits left behind only ...

Surprisingly we were up by midday and rented some scooters with Alex and Johnno so that we could explore the island.

No better way to spend a day than just cruising (safely) around. It was during this trip that we found out something hilarious about Johnno and Alex when they said "Don't you two take singlies inc...

It is beyond us how any people can stroke, hug and kiss the stray animals in Asia but they do. These dogs and cats scratch and bite themselves all day for a reason dudes. Tonight a UV half moon party at the mushroom bar. Sounds interesting. Once again we were the party an...

Unhappy Haloween You know you are staying at a good place when all the necessities you need are within 3m. Toilets, showers, bed and Mons restaurant. Hangover day We sat and listened to music in the Chill Out Pad with Alex and Johnno and ate our three meals of the day at the awesome 'Mons Diner' directly opposite the hostel gate. The food is amazing and we can't see any reason to eat anywhere else during our stay. At a point when we were wishing to be...
