Good Morning everyone
Well the weather is awful today, we have woken up and it looks like it could be a rainy day so we are going to have a day of shopping and catching up with emails etc. We have decided to stay on Koh Toa for the next few days as we both love it here so much!!! We are going to risk getting the boat aover to Koh Phangan tonight and juust hope that we dont get sea sick, well Em anyway. Its picking us up at 5pm this evening and then it brings us back to KOh Toa at 7am tomorrow morning, so basically its going to be an all nighter!! Eeek, Im not sure if I can handle that.
Yesterday we got the water taxi to this little island called Nangyuan, and it was gorgeous. I loved it so much that Ive decided to call it Lauras Island becuase I cant pronounce how to say it ;-). It was like something from Robinson Crusoe, with lots of wooden bridges connecting to the tiny islands and rope swings. It was really popular with the snorkellers but me and Em decided not to do that as we are both scared of fish, haha. But it so nice just to spend the day there. It is definately the best beach Ive seen so far, as soon sa I can I wuill put the pictures on here. We even did a bit of trekk8ing, (Dad you would have been so proud of us), and we climbed right to the top of this mountain as the view from the top is fantastic. Although everyone else had their walking boots on and sticks and me and Em went up in our bikinis!!!! heha, somethings just dont change. It was boiling hot though. The view was amazing!!! Its my new number 1 spot in the world and Im sure we still ahve so muxch to sea. The best thing abpout this place though, is that its not very well known and so its not busy at all, really quiet.
Oh yeah, also forgot to add that we went out on Tuesday night for a few drinks and ended up drinking Thai whisky ( which isnt like our whisky in the UK at all) its really nice and they drink it with red bull ( which isnt actually realy redbull) and coke. Its nice but lethal!!! N by 5am we decided that enough was enough and it was time for bed!!haha we were sat on ther beach with loads of Aussies, and a cool group of people from Manchester. We also randomly met a guy from England yesterday on the beach who's cousin plays football, or used to i think, hes a coach now, for IK Start and hes been to Kiristiansand loads. What a small world. Ben knows him too.
But we didnt waste the day yesterday with our hangovers and we up and about on this island by 11am, thats pretty good going for us!!! Em s feeling better although she has a bad cough now so we ve been to the pharmacy and got her lots of pills and medicine, it all came to about a pound! Its cheap as over here for anything.
We ate on the beach last night and had seafood again, was so nice. Cheapest meal yet, the whole thing came to under 2 pounds! Including drinks. The only thing I can say that I HATE about this country is the horrible little( or big as they must be) mosquitos!!! Seriously I have been muched by them sooooooo bad and I currently have 19 on my legs!!!! They are yucky and red and so sore. Ive managed to find this stuff called tiger balm though which is good and helps to heal them. They must love my skin. They dont seem to be biting Em as bad.
Im glad we are staying on Koh Toa as I have fallen head obver heels in love with it and dont ever want to leave. Although we are going over to the Phi Phi islands next week and when Em leaves I might come back here.
We are slowly getting used to the toilet situatiion, hehe, although Em says she uis not going until she gets back to England!!!! eeeeeeeek. Dont think that will happen. We have found an aussie bar though which has a loo with a flush, and are clean.
Well off to do some shopping now. lots of love. xxxxxxxxxx
p.s we were in this bar on the beach the other night and this HUGE ( no exageration) ghekko, i think thats how u spell it, landed on my back and just sat there! ahhhhhhh, I wasnt happy at all and freaked out. All the woldlife seems to love me over here.
Dad and Ang- have a good time in germany, love you both lots. xxxxx
Chanice- Happy 12th birthday, hope you had a great party! xxxxxxxx
