Paradise continues

Phi Phi consists of 2 islands - Don and Lay, the latter being a much smaller and uninhabitable island and the location of the actual beach in the film. You can see why it was chosen as the ultimate paradise. It is too stunning for me to describe, I can't do it justice as I am certainly no creative writer, although unfortunately I have already given up my day job. We are staying on the larger island, which again is beautiful, we have a lovely beach ('Long Beach', strangely is actually quite short) which is overlooked by our bungalows at 'Paradise Pearl Resort'. 3 quid a night rooms, lovely jubbly. Today we spent the day in a boat travelling around both islands and snorkeling in between. Came into contact with many Cleaning Fish while snorkeling, these tiny little blue things which literally clean dead cells off the other fish and, apparently, snorkellers. We are all covered in various cuts and scrapes and I have a particularly impressive one on my shin - long story involving a moped, a bungalow and a blonde who got confused between accelerate and stop, but I digress. Had 3 little cleaners at one point eating the scab off my leg, which at the time I though was sweet, but having just put it into words have decided it is actually quite minging. All in all though, have fallen in love with Phi Phi - if you ever come to Thailand (which you really really should) Phi Phi should be high on your "I must go there" list. That's all I have to say x
