Sun 29th June - Wed 9th July (Week 41-42)Sun 29th - Got a taxi transfer to Kuah ferry for the 10:30am boat to Satun on the mainland. Pretty good crossing, and only 30mins late leaving, so we arrived at 12pm / 11am Thai time.

The time has flown by and its been so nice and easy, but at least we're flying out to continue our trip - not flying back to the UK just yet ! Caught the JetBus to Adelaide airport at 11am and again, the check-in lady was so chatty, and the baggage scanning man was chatting to us about diving etc - you just ...
