Ko Yoa Noi After a chilled out couple of days in Krabi we headed over to Ko Yoa Noi a muslim island via boat. We were staying in beach bungalow style accom and the place in general was pretty nice!

KRABI Just a quick note to let everyone know I am now in Krabi - and it is ruddy gorgeous! I have managed to get quite a fetching sunburn today while sunbathing on Railay Beach - tomorrow I am doing a 4 Islands tour which I am fairly convinced will involve more red blotchy skin! Got a couple more days here before we move on! Have decided relaxing on a Thai beach is the perfect way to end my hetic trip! Will do a proper update later in the week! Mel

Worms worms and more worms!! Whilst in Chaing Mai I have also discovered I yet again have a worm!This time luckily it is ring-worm that is not in fact an actual worm like Fred the sand worm - it is just a skin complaint! Although does look fairly gross on my chest, and I need to find a Thai pharmacist who understands what the hell I am going on about!! Otherwise by the time I get home I will be covered in them!! I am officially disgusting!!
