Spent 6 days on Koh Tao.....lush. Hired a moped and had a quick drive around the island....well, most of the roads are dirt tracks so we only saw a bit, our bunalow looks out over a nice bay but its very shallow and the water gets so hot. We discovered that we have a little friend staying with us in our room....a foot long lizard who sits above our bed, excellent! We did 2 dives one morning, it was cool. The visability was good and we saw some awsome fish....i sw...

We escaped leech infested Khao Sok and headed by minibus, coach, ferry, coach and tul tuk to Koh Samui. We stayed in a very cheap bungalow near the beach in the quiet area of the island....not on the main resorts with all the package tourists and drunken English people. Hired a moped and cruised around the island on our 1st day there, its got alot of western themed pubs and Tescos and burger king (I didnt let Layne eat there) The beaches are quite nice but I thin...

We left Phi Phi and on the ferry had the horror of watching Rambo 4...a very random choice considering it was 9am and there were lots of kids on board....i think it was one of the most violent, grusome films i have seen, it freaked me out, Lauren..dont watch it!

We decided to walk to a waterfall that was 7km away and started out through the rainforest on...

We arrived at Koh Phi- Phi Don after a short ferry trip from Krabi only to find that although it is an island off the coat of Thailand, the constant nagging of hotel touts had not eluded this island. We eventually settled for a basic but nice beach hut only 50m from the beach. It was basic but our most expensive room yet! It was very hot and humid, apparantaly it was 42 degrees during the day and not much cooler during the night. We spent the next 2 days just wal...

After a short flight from KL and a bus and boat journey we arrived in Riley Beach which is a penninsula near Krabi. Its very pretty with palm fringed sandy beaches and clear water. We sat and watched a beautiful sunset with a beer in our hand after swimming in the warm sea, nice. To my delight the hotel bar was showing the Wales v France 6 nations match and although I hate both of the teams it was great to watch some rugby as i've been getting serious withdrawl s...
