Spent a couple of days at Kata beach in Phuket. Lots of Russians in speedos is about all there was to see. Enjoyed spending time on the beach and in our £15 luxury room :)
Booked our boat and headed for Phi Phi. As the ferry pulls into the island it's like arriving in paradise.
We were planning on staying in the hostel but got distracted by the fact that we could stay in our own room for the same price so failed, again.
Had 5 days on the island and although we intended to shop around for our room we couldn't beat £5 each a night so stayed put.
Basically went to the beach, out for dinner and to the bars. Had a 'what am I doing?' moment dancing on the beach at 2 am in my new tie dye dress. Bloody hippies. Went to a restaurant called Papaya twice, pretty rough and ready but amazing food in huge portions for dirt cheap. Was always heaving and when I finally read the lonely planet Phi Phi section realised why!
The most effort we made the entire time was climbing up to the viewpoint on the island.... at midday. Let's just say we nearly died and I need to go back to the gym. Earned our Papaya and Sangsom that night.
Booked our overnight train on the 19th and headed back to Bangkok. I sat with my feet dangling of the side of the ferry to Krabi in the sunshine as the Thai islands drifted by, heaven.
