Day 8 - "it's just like morecambe" Day 8 begins with somewhat of a lie in, only till 9, but that's late for us on this trip! So we decide to get some breakfast out in the town, this is the first breakfast we've had since Bangkok! Not the best but we didn't care because we had some bacon!! We then headed back to the bungalow to pack up and check out, we left our bags at reception and went down to the beach for a drink and a sunbathe, it's pretty hot today despite...

Day 7 - When a monkey nibbles on a penis, it's funny in any language. So, day seven begins with a hangover that would slay a walrus, no time to clear it up with a greasy breakfast though, as we had to be on our way down to the pier to head over to phi phi lay on a longtail boat for a spot of snorkelling and looking round the various coves and bays of the island!

Day 6- Its never too early for a Chang! Day six begins with another early start, but after a good nights sleep this wasn't an issue!

Hell was it hot sat on the deck of this ferry even that early in the morning! With this in mind I deci...

Day 5 - I don't care, just phuket!! This was supposed to be just a travelling day, not much happening between koh samui and phi phi so I wasn't really going to write anything, but since this journey is the first thing not to go perfectly for us I thought I'd better recant the entire thing! Yet another early start... 6am alarm set so we could get our taxi to the ferry back to the mainland! So off to phuket we go!! We get to the ferry port and wait around for a ...

Days 3 and 4 - Thai Hard So day 3 begins with a VERY early start because we had to get to the airport for our flight to koh samui! It was only a VERY early start because I, like an idiot had us getting up and leaving an hour before we needed to! Oh how we could have used that extra hour! Due to jet lag I couldn't get to sleep until about 4 in the morning, with our alarm set for half 6... Anyway, we got the flight from Bangkok to koh samui, now koh samui airport ...
