Koh Phi Phi

Angela & David in action

We arrived in Koh Phi Phi yesterday morning. We booked a bungalow before arriving and were promised to get a bungalow right by the beach, with beach view. But of course when we got there they said that there was none available. We said we were going to ring the company we booked with and tell them. After a few minutes of them talking to each other in Thai they turned around and said "Oh, we just have one available now"!!! So obviosly someone of the workers had to move out and give us their bungalow as they were too afraid to get any complaints! But everything is good. Our bungalow is really nice! we live right by they sea and right beside a MASSIVE cliff. It's beautiful! We didn't do much yesterday. Played some badmington, had a swim and went for a walk through the main streets. Saw some REALLY beutiful lady men all dressed and dolled up! God knows where they were going. I'd tell you, ANY man would easily misstake them for women.
Today we went on a snorkeling trip. It was SOOO good! First we arrived at Maya Bay (Where "the Beach" was recorded) It was actually not as beautiful as it seems in the movie. (It was probably DiCaprio that made it look good) ;D The snorkeling there was amazing though.
Then we moved on to monkey beach, shark point, bamboo island and some other nice spots.
But seriously, snorkeling is so much fun! We had a great day.
It was nearly 5.30 when we got back. 7,5 hours of snorkeling do make you really hungry. So we went to a place that was recommended, called "Papaya" They make HUGE portions so me and David shared one Flied Lice and had some spling Loll. David also had a "Papaya Salad" The lady said it was spicy....David said "I like spicy, I can handle SPICY" But after 2 bites and 2litres of sweat David finally admitted....Aaaahhh...TOO HOT, TOO SPICY! HOT HOT!!!
Right now we're considering going to an Irish Pub to watch Lady Men perform, a cabaret show. Could be interesting.
