So a six hour boat journey should just about get us there. I'm really looking forward to getting to Koh lipe as it's the most undeveloped island. It's in a national park and this island is the only one they can build on. The surrounding islands have nothing on at all. I think you can camp on them but there's no guest houses, hotels, shops and very few people. During the boat journey i fell asleep on the top deck without sunscreen on. I have done this befor...

We got picked up at 6 am by a minibus to take us to a ferry port. We then boarded our coach and waited 40 minutes for it to drive us 200 meters to the ferry. I don't know why they just didn't point us in that direction in the first place. The ferry was to take 1 hour and 30 minutes to main land. During the crossing i decided to get a coffee. I was walking back up stairs with it, holding it by the lid as it was burning my hand. To my horror i dropped it all ...

On the way to the boat mark couldn't stop being sick. Me Nick and Neal was winding him up saying it's love sickness as him and Steph had just said goodbye and won't be meeting up for a while.

There was no where to sit so we had to sit in the engine room. The noise was deafening but there...

So we left Koh Tao as planned and caught the 3 pm ferry back over to Koh Phangan. Today being the 30th, so with a night to spare until the big party, being new year. We arrived and jumped straight in a taxi and headed straight back to our old Guess house. We had arranged with them before leaving to save a room for us as we will definitely be back on the 30th. Men of our word. We arrived in the pouring down rain, went to reception and to our horror they were ...

So we came back to Koh Tao. My reason being i wanted to do my advanced diving and the other lads just needed some time to chill after a manic time in Koh Phangan. Sounds like a good plan as i can do with some rest time too. We arrived back and tried to check in to our old room but unfortunately it was fully booked so we got one near by. There was four of us crammed in to 1 double bed and a single bed. The room was tiny, i doubt you could of even swung a cat ...
