Hello guys,

O.K will try to keep this a quickie!

Cant remember where I left off, but after Ko Samui which was great fun and sunny and perfect for a bit of beach time we headed off to the jungle. Which was crazy!!

It was raining when we were reaching the summit of Khao Sok National Park and it was so refreshing having been in such humidity for so long!

We stayed in cool tree houes built on stilts which were a bit icky with all of the creepy crawlies, our water from the tap and shower was brown and gritty too- so we just didnt shower for two days- nice!

However, we got to canoe through the jungle and saw elephants and two pythons and on our way back we saw a croc and a very naughty monkey!

We even had a canoe race with each other and ended up with the Brits winning and the Aussies losing (well they cant win everything!) and the Aussies canoe leader almost fell out of his canoe in the process of it- was really good fun!

We ate at the guesthouse in the jungle where we were staying and lets just say the next morning there were a few of us with a little bit of Delhi Belly ( or Thai Jungle belly??), poor Kes was suffering from consuming a fair amount of gin and the rest of us werent exactly 100%- as you can imagine a two hour coach ride and Songthaew ride to Krabi was not exaclty what any of us were in the mood for. But we made it and wow, what a place!

We are staying in Krabi, Rai Leh beach and it is so beautful, yesterday we had lunch and chilled on the beach whilst having Thai massages and watched the sun go down before heading to a very funky bar called Geckos.

Today (me still not feeling too good in the tummy area- thank god for imodium!) took a boat out to Ko Phi Phi and Buddah Island- stopping off to snorkel on an island near Phi Phi and then have lunch and then on to Buddah Island which is stunning- the bluest sea and the whitest sand and totally untouched. We also did some deep sea diving and have never experienced anything like it- the most colourful fish and so much amazing coral! I bought an underwater camera and have taken lots of pics so hopefully the pics will come out looking great!

This evening we've just chilled and went for a bite to eat- we were terrible and I had a burger and Kes had a pizza- we were so hungry though and have eaten curry and rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday so we were in desperate need of carbs!

And that brings you up to date,

We are off to a place called Ko Lawa which is a tiny secluded island with a beach about 30 feet long and we are taking it over to have a big bbq and do some beach camping- then we are off to Phuket in a few days!

Having a great time and even though I love you all (especially my lovely family!) I dont want to come home! haha!

Will try and update in Phuket,

Lots of love,

Tulsy
