Patong Beach

... cave. They had bamboo ladders everywhere to find where the swallows have laid their eggs so they can collect them to sell.<br><br> <br> <br><br>Next stop was Monkey Beach on Phi Phi Don Island where they lured monkeys onto the boat with bananas. One of them had this cute baby attached. They pooped on the boat &amp; were a bit scary &#8211; one ran over my foot. The ones on land still were fighting with other &amp ...

... club which ended up being a bar fight between the whole bar. Furniture bottles and everything else went flying. It was between a group of ozzies and thais. We were lucky enough to be at the back of the bar and missed a slap of a chair. The weather is unreal here. 35 degrees everyday. Went to see a ping pong show aswell and im still horrified. Not sure if i can ...

... place as they bring out an enormous bowl of salad before the meal. Most Thai food seems to be rice and anything you want as long as it is fried, so some fresh salad is occasionally needed! We found a great lunch place in the big shopping centre JungCeylon which might be called the Bangkok Café. They have all sorts of Western food which is not the best, but they have an open salad bar to raid! Bl--dy construction sites are attacking us from three ...

Nous avons ete a Phuket seulement pour voir notre amie Lauren de l'Australie qui venait avec sa famille assiste a un mariage la bas. Nous n'avions pas prevu aller a Phuket au depart, car ce n'est pas une place pour des Backpackers. C'est TROP touriste et trop cher. Mais comme Lauren est encore plus chere a notre coeur, on voulait absolument la voir. C'est chez elle qu'on a habite un certain temps et avec elle qu'on travaillait a HBA. On a eu beaucoup de fun avec eux et ca faisait encore ...

Hi! This weekend we went kayaking in Phang Nga Bay in the Gulf of Thailand. It was one of the most breathtaking experiences of my life and definitely something I will never forget. After a week of blazing sun, we woke up to rain and grey skies on Saturday morning...a perfect start. The company van picked us up and took us a wooden longboat that carried us out to the island of Ko Yao Noi (small long island), our ...

... have a great nap! At a travel and tours booth outside the massage place I book tickets for Mum and me to see the Simon Phuket Cabaret on Friday night. Another job off my list. Rob and I went last time we were in Phuket and it was so cheesey and a hoot. Mum will definitely love it and we book VIP seats which include transport to and from Simon for THB600 each ($20). Back to the Hotel for a quick swim before dinner. I've planned for us to eat at the ...

Just arrived at the bungalow... It's nice. Too nice actually! I'm supposed to be roughing it this trip. Plus it's ridiculously expensive at 566 USD a month. They should throw in a naked housekeeper for that price... I'm moving to a sweat-stinking mosquito-infested shared room at the gym when ...

... food is delicious, and James is in heaven. He loves the spiciness and the "kick" as we like to call it, and I am adjusting slowly to it. We found a super restaurant in town where we ate 2 lunches and the first day I ordered a meal with "hot basil leaves", not really paying attention to the word "hot", and i spent most of the meal icing my lips because they felt on FIRE. The waitresses just laughed at me and refilled my cup of ice as needed. There are so many different ...

... I have to say I don't there is a better way to wake up than knowing you will be under the water in 15 minutes, so nice. I loved it. I ended up doing 14 dives in the 4 days we were there, I only skipped one. On the last day we saw Manta Rays with a 5 - 6 metre wing span, so awsome, I can still see them in my head. They are such beautiful creatures. Now I am sad because who know when I will ...
