Day 186 - 190: We decided that it would be best if we stayed in the same location back in Thailand to save money for shopping in Bangkok. We booked a bungalow in Ao Nang near Krabi. For these days we relaxed on the beach every day and took a lesson in Thai cooking one afternoon, it was brilliant! The bungalow was great and the owners were a really friendly thai family who helped us book everything.

Day 191: Today we took a bus to Surat Thani and swapped to an overnight 11 hour VIP bus to Bangkok. We arrived at approximately 5am, got straight to the hotel and caught some sleep. We then had a marathon shopping spree at all the malls and markets Bangkok has to offer.

Day 192: Another day of bargain shopping in Bangkok and the MBK centre and wholesale markets!
