We arrived in Kuala Lumpur after a quick flight from Krabi. Next we got the bus from the airport to the monorail station. We then took this to the nearest station for our hotel the Sky Express hotel. The monorail was very good but also very busy and not so easy to jump on an off when we have two big Rucksacks!! Once we settled into our room we went to explore the city. It's a weird place due to one minute we were walking through seedy massage places being a...

Our next stop after Phi Phi was Ao nang, Krabi. We arrived here after a boat trip back to the port in Krabi. Ao Nang was a nice quiet place with an alright beach and good restaurants to feed ourselves. Krabi was the first place in which we really tried street food. It was brilliant!

We arrived in Pa Tong after a full day of travelling. We left Koh Chang at 6am and after a minibus, taxi and plane we arrived in Pa Tong at 10 pm. It was a very tiring day so we literally went out for some food then went straight to bed. The next day we decided we would chill out at the beach because of the l ongs stressful day before. But firstly we had to find the beach. This took about an hour instead of what should of been a 10 minute walk. Along the wa...
