Staying on Nang Thong Beach
Got a taxi from Phuket as it would have cost about the same trying to get a coach all the way and it was worth a little extra for a lott less hassle. Stayed on Nang Thong Beach, a very quiet beach but loats of waves so the water is not very clear but we only went there once as we've been busy adventuring. Unfortionately we don't have many pictures as one of our memorycards broke.

Woke up early. Got on a motorbike with a little metal box attached to the station. Bumped into the two Canadian girls from whom we'd stolen the idea to get this particular train. Bought our tickets and got the 7:20am train to Pakhom Nathom (or something) to change to the 9:30am train to Surrathani. The train was unremarkable. Went relatively fast.
