Diving time! With our open water skills still fresh in our minds, we opted for 4 dives for 2700 Baht, roughly £55 - bargain! Our diving instructor, F, was great fun and added to our experience diving with Phoenix divers. Dive One: My fifth dive (total) took place at Chumphon Pinnacle. Hailed as the best dive site the island has to offer, we were optimistic that we may see something to remember, unfortunately the only thing I'll remember is the chop. The boat...

We left Koh Samui just in time for the Black Moon Party and also just in time to escape the rain. Unfortunately, the latter followed us to Koh Phangan. We stayed at the A1 Koh Phangan and I'd highly recommend it to anyone visiting the island. I've heard the island has a lot to offer, it's beauty, it's peacefulness and so on, but for us, it was somewhere to dump the bags, party and move on. The Black Moon Party, unlike the Full Moon Party, is a pay to enter ...

Back in the same area and hotel again, there was only one thing that, in my opinion, is a must when visiting Koh Samui, that I still had to introduce to Vikki. A lady boy, a stage and some bad miming, it's cabaret show time! I didn't realise at the time I'd have a man...woman...no, a man trying to kiss and grope me but it's all in the spirit and much to the amusement of the rest of the audience. Our time back in Samui was short. Relaxing in the sun and watchi...

The journey to Krabi wasn't all that bad, a minibus, a ferry and two coaches. Back home I'd of thought that was long, boring and tedious. Now, half a day travelling is nothing. It's the 24 hour journeys and upwards that are the killers. So, we arrived in Krabi with the plan to dive, relax on the beach and generally continue the 'holiday mood' that had arose since reentering Thailand. However... Sigh... Moving onto Krabi wasn't a great choice. Slightly more ex...

Back in Samui, it was time to catch up with my Uncle and Baz who'd flown over from Dubai for a week for the Easter holidays. There isn't much to say, apart from we had a blast. We relaxed, we ate, we drunk and we partied. But, as it happens more than often during your travels, all good things must come to an end. Thankfully, for us, more times than not, it's replaced with equally as exciting and interesting new destinations. Krabi, we'll see you tomorrow.
