Hi Guys,sorry we didn't do much writing yesterday,kinda shattered.We had a long but amazing day..We wanted to go by speed boat but not enough people booked so it was a/c van and longtail boat.about 2hours of travelling each way but the scenery was gorgeous. You can get a feel from the couple of pictures yesterday.We were in the Andaman sea surrounded by islands,caves,and simply stunning wheever you looked. So worth the long day. Another of yesterdays pictures shows the place we had lunch. a restuarant and gypsy village on stilts..complete sit down meal, not buffett.
If you have seen the film Man with the Golden Gun you can picture it all,we stood on the bay where the aircraft came through the islands and landed on the beach, the steps the midget came down with the drinks and the rock which had the lazer beam and the reflectors etc. No different after 39yrs. Amazing the Thais are still making money out of us visiting.Surprisingly all nationalities know about JB.Our bus was mainly Russian!!!! and a swiss couple.
We also went canooing ,can't describe how fab that was around the caves,through low over hanging stalagtites and into beautifu lagoons.If we had the weather at home I might take it up,it was so good.
We oted out of the Golden Budha visit as was surrounded by monkeys and didn't want any nasty diseases just before a wedding.The day ended with a nature walk up multi steps to a waterfall and a lagoon for swimming.Now you know why we were shattered ,all that and the multi getting on and off the long tail boats all day,sometimes quite hairy,3 foot drops that looked like 10 feet.Sometimes we had to cross 0ne boat to get to another and I found myself straddling two boats and acting very nonchalent.
Will try and add some more piccys from yesterday.
