Hello global people.
So after getting up ridicliously early yesterday, Sunday, morning we got shipped down to a port...
There's not much interesting to say aside from the fact that we left Koh Tao at about 8am and finally arrived in Krabi at 9pm... that's a long long day of travelling. Not helped by the countless times we had to get on/off different busses and ferries and luckily for Tom, the longest stretch of 4 hours, consisted of me having to sit perpendicular to a man who should probably have been in a hospital, coughing like a monkey after smoking a cigar. Whilst getting DVT in every part of my body the likes of my awesome iPod and the pretty cool parts of rural Thailand got me through the journey.
We were incredibly intrigued as to what our accomodation would be like as according to the brouchure/ bit of paper our 'Lakeside Bungalow' seemed to be infested with mossy's and god knows what else...
So we cautiously turned up to the lake (more of a big pond) and got greeted but one of the nicest people in the world! A dude called 'Me' took our bags, sat us on the side cart of his motorbike and bombed it over the fields and mud to a hut on the other side whilst complaining about UK football... haha.
And OH WOW the room was awesome! Aside from Bangkok, it was by far the nicest place we've stayed in!! Air conditioing, a POWER shower, with HOT water and a TV (novelty value) and a FRIDGE!!! Totally worth it...
Half an hour later we gunned it down into the city in a tuk-tuk and i stocked up on my hat and t-shirt collection as Ben bought a bag and we hit an awesome bar/cafe place. The joy of BUY ONE GET ONE FREE draught Chang lit up our eyes and we drank whilst listening to a reggae band live!
Got up early this morning, had a shower... then a frog jumped out at me. Shock over, i left the shower and we embarked the two hour ferry to Koh Phi Phi and arrived a couple of hours ago!!
Chilling here for today and tomorrow then back to KRabi for one night... then down to KL (Malaysia) for 4 nights.
Hope the world is smiling.
Peace love and shower frogs.

Bob Was the reggae band comprised of Thai dudes or were they on tour from the Caribbean? Wondering how Thai dudes look in a reggae band - then again there are clip on dreadlocks at Venice.
