We booked the boat back to Kuriburi for today so we just had the morning to enjoy Surin for the last time.
As we ate breakfast a monkey strutted past us then casually climbed in the tree to relax. We followed suit and lay in our hammock watching the tide come in then packed up our things from within the tent. Lee shook his sleeping bag and a giant spider jumped out. It wasn't a tarantula but it was black and white striped?! Not friendly colours if its anything like the sea snake! I dove in the tent and zipped it up whilst Lee composed him self. As he went to grab his trainers the spider lunged for him! Before i knew it Lee had picked up the little brush (used for brushing the sand away from your tent) and beat the spider to death. Thank goodness gracious me we were leaving because i just imagined all his friends coming to get us! That spider must have been in the tent with us! The only time i can think it could have got in was last night. I had to go the toilet in the night so i'd woke Lee up to protect me as i made my way to the toilet. I'd noticed earlier that day the huge spiders web with the huge spider in it above the toilets! It must have jumped on me when I'd gone and come and slept in our tent?! After that ordeal we headed for the pier.
We were sad to go but we had no money left and if we're honest we really did try and relax but I was starting to twitch. Lee was fine - you could charge your electrical devices at night at tea time so Lee was quite content with his hammock and iPod.
The boat came and took us back to Kuriburi. The tour man was there waiting to take us back to his office (with free glasses of coke) once we were back I went the cash machine and nipped in the shop for a drink and some jelly sweets. I'd been craving jelly sweets! The tour man and his wife were so friendly. Their bungalows are not very nice at all and i wouldnt want to stay there again but they really are nice people. The wife lady told us what bus was best to go to Koh Sok and we headed back to the bus station. There were no more buses today for Koh Sok so we decided to head straight to Khoa Lak, the port for the Similan Islands.
