SAME, SAME BUT DIFFERENT DAY DAY 69: Koh Tao Didn't get to sleep until about 3.30am this morning for the noises being made by whatever was running around on the roof and the slightly loud and heavy rain throughout the night. Our room is really nice but you can hear a pin drop about three doors down, the walls are so thin. After breakfast I felt like wandering into the main village of Sairee, about 30 minutes away, and as the weather was cloudy I thought I'd ...

TOTALLY CHILLED NOW DAY 68: Koh Tao Today was, as I'm sure the rest of our days here in Koh Tao will be, very similar to what we've done already; sit on the beach reading, soaking up the sun and doing a bit of snorkelling. And maybe a snooze. I made a good dent in the last part of my second book today, which is gracefully titled 'No sh!tting in the toilet' - a humorous alternative travel guide based on the author, Peter Moore's being-stuck-in-absurd-situations...

THINGS THAT GO 'CRUNCH' IN THE NIGHT Day 67: Koh Tao Last night saw me get a much better night's sleep, even though the banging on the roof continued.

The only thing that really woke me up was at about 5am when Jen was trying to plug her iPhone in to charge it and all I could hear was her scratching round trying to find the adapter hole. It was only when I awoke at the second tim...

SUNSHINE AT LAST Day 66: Koh Tao I had a pretty restless night's sleep last night, probably due to the huge amount of sleep during the day, the loud music we could hear from the town below and the constant dropping of rather large things on to our roof from the trees above. Seriously, they sound like coconuts being thrown down, loud enough to wake me up every time. When we got up, we had a lovely four course breakfast (God, I love buffet breakfasts) overlook...

KOH-MA-TAO-SED Day 65: Koh Tao We arrived in the pitch black at Chumporn slightly after 5am to catch our catamaran to Koh Tao, but as it didn't leave until 7.30 we had a short lie down on the deck chairs and waited for the sun to rise. Onboard it was a bumpy hour and a half journey, more like a ride at Universal Studios, but we both still managed to fall asleep, we were that tired. We docked at Koh Tao shortly after 9am. We hadn't booked any accommodation, ...
