Wehay we made it to another island.... 10 hours late but never the less we made it...!
We left Phi Phi at 9 yesterday morning under the instruction that we would be in koh phan-gan at around 4 in the afternoon. It would take an hour and a half on a boat from phi phi to mainland Krabi, then 2 and a half hours to Surat Thani then another hour and a half on a boat from Surat Thani to Phan-gan..... boy was we mugged off....!
After the hour and a half trip from phi phi to krabi we boarded a bus.... after four hours we pull up at a little shop/shack and are told we need to give these poeple our original and they would give us new ones for the boat to Koh Phan-gan. That sounds easy enough....! Turns out we're not even in Surat Thani, and we've been taken to some where completley different...! we now dont have our original tickets either.... none of this had become apparant just yet as the whole coach was doing the same thing...! So after an hours wait at this shop/shack we board another bus which drives at no more than 10 mile an hour for another hour and a half to a Car Ferry dock.... now we're all beginning to think theres something not quite right here...!
Once we arrive at this dock we're unloaded and handed boat tickets with the price of 100 baht on them... im sure we paid 700 baht originally for our tickets.. its now well past the time that we should of actually been in Koh Phan-gan and we're stuck at some ferry port! Not only that the ferry isnt leaving until 8pm and its a 4 hour trip on the boat....!! Its now pretty obvious that the scheming little b*****s have had us all voer... on top of that a canadian girl and a swedish girl have had their back packs robbed whilst under the bus....! Its no wonder they were driving so slow... there dirty little pal was downstairs having a go through all our back packs...! Scott had a belt nicked out of his.... lucky they never took anything else...!
So we're on this poxy car ferry for 4 hours, and then we get off get loaded into the back of a pick up truck and taken to our bungalows... which if i'm honest... are really lovely... We arrived here at half past midnight last night 8 and a half hours late....! Oh the joys...!
We met up with lots of people though on the way, which is a good thing... we're heading out with them tonight and hitting the Full Moon Party with them tomorrow night too... its all fun and games....!!!!
Scott and drew have just gone up the shop so i thought i'd hop on here and do this because i know how much you all like laughing and how much fun i have writing it...!
Well take care guys.... my thai number is 006676904018.... or text our english phones its the same price as if we was there...!
Love u all 2 pieces as always......!
Jamie!
