27/11/09We're on the move again, heading to Krabi to see what's about. We had to catch a bus to Takua Pa again and change buses to Krabi. We bought our ticket to Krabi and had something to eat while we waited. After a while the woman who sold us the ticket said that the bus was gonna be late but we couls catch a smaller bus (like PMT but not as we know it!) to another station and then get a coach from there to Krabi. We decided to do it so we didn't have to hang ...

We packed up and got a lift to the main road in Khao Sok where the buses drop off and pick up, we'd decided to head down towards Krabi but when we got to the bus stop Vlad (the Czech guy from the jungle trip) was there and he mentioned that him and his girlfriend were going diving off Khao Lak and that it was the same bus we were gonna catch only we wouldn't have to change buses at Takua Pa. Simon had been to Khao Lak with Ade but it was still recovering from th...

22/11/09Off to Khao Sok! Caught the bus from Ranong to Takua Pa at 09:30, 2 hours later we cought the connecting bus to take us to Khao Sok.

When we checked in we were shown some tour options so we could decide what we wanted to do, we chose a 2 da...

8/11/09Up early again this morning. Got picked up from our hotel and taken back to Kiwi Orchid for breakfast and a brew, then it was off to catch the ferry, oh I forgot to mention it's pissing it down! As I'm sitting here now rocking up and down, up and down, up and down I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't have bothered with the omelette and just had my brew! Only a short hour and a half boat ride and I'll be in paradise!Short boat ride later - yep, I was right, it's...

7/11/09Early start this morning, had to catch a train from Cha-am to Chumpon at 11.18, this was delayed for an hour however so we saw a lot of the tiny train station that morning! (I have to say it was worlds apart from trying to catch a train in India, a lot less stress!)Finally got on the train at 12.30ish for a 5 hour journey to Chumpon. Once in Chumpon we'd planned to get a bus to Ranong and then a ferry to Koh Payam. Due to the train being late we were runni...
