MY twin classmate from RMIT decided to go for an South East Asia tour and ask me to join them for a short trip to Thailand.. After severe online research. I have discovered a good deal on Groupon to Krabi, Thailand! Woots! Krabi Railay Bay it is!!
On 6th Jan. I departed Krabi airport all by myself.. *while waiting for the twins to arrive*.
I have pre-booked the transport from airport to resort. The entire journal was all alone!!
I had the van all by myself and even the boat #likeaboss!!
It's totally first class service and of coz.. it ain't cheap.. >.<
Anyway, I arrived Railay Bay earlier, forced to stay at the poolside for about 3 hours.. Luckily the view is pretty good and i relax beside the pool with an absolutely stunning beach view! :) LIFE...
On my way to Railay! Plane-> Van-> Speedboat-> Destination!
Only place where u can find cheap food in the entire island.
Railay East
Zhe famous Phranang Beach. Lots of people chill here. Well, there's a small temple cave with lots of 'cocks' in it. I shall leave it for you to explore.. Teehee..
My lunch of the day!
DAY 2
Morning! Still in our room before heading out!!
The breakfast Railay Bay Resort offer is pretty good. Loook at my heart shape egg!! AWWWWW
My favourite was Meiji yogurt!! yum yum!
We decided to find a cheaper island hopping tour.. The hotel itself do have a few agency. But we thought that it was pretty expensive. It cost about 1800 to 2000 baht per pax. Meh.. *under budget!*
So we took a water taxi to Aonang and our haggling day begins!!
Went in and out into different so called tourist centre. Totally cunning. Haha.. They are mostly travel agency. You gotta be careful with this.
Had coconut water and some fruits as pit stop and continue our journey of cheap tour! Well, most of the agency offer us about 1300 baht to 1500 baht for Hong island hopping. Although it's comparably cheaper than what our resort offer.. But we thought of just checking better deals...
So... here comes a great hint!
Remember this red postbox.
TAADAHH!!!
This is it! We manage to find the cheapest deal among all travel agency and the aunty who served us is very friendly. We managed to get Hong island tour for 950 bath!! *steal*
Time for lunch!
So... i've ordered a Pizza. But, does this look like a pizza to you? Not Quite sure!
Anyway. i just gotta post this coz the picture is too nice.. hehe.. despite the taste of this pizza. not gonna try it anymore! Along Aonang st. there's alot of indian and western fusion food. We thought that this one we went have a reasonable price. but the food. Is bad. Cant's remember what's the name of it. SORRY! Even the tom yam Tania had was. watery!! eww~
My! bargaining ain't easy.. Thus, we called it off for the day and head back to our resort.. :)
SO many pretty girls in bikini here!! It's heaven guys!! u seriously gotta come Krabi!! of coz, during peak season. When Europe is covered with thick snow.. :E *just saying*
Day 3
This drink is OH-some! :D u gotta try!
Shades checked!
Sunblock checked!
Bikini checked!
Mat checked!
Sun hat checked!
Off we go!!
Our first stop was at Bamboo island.. Nothing much here.. It feels like Sabah beach.. with lots of Bamboo.
and some people camp here as well.
Viking Cave! Too bad we cant go down now.. coz it's under construction or they didnt want tourist to pick bird nest.. *sigh*
Zhe amazing Pileh Bay!!! This lagoon is so prettttttyyy! Again, too bad we can't swim here coz it's overly populated with tourist! dymn.. :/
Maya Bay. Sand so soft!
The trio power!!
What he caught!!!
We had lunch at Phi Phi island. This place was overly packed! Don't really like the place. But i guess alot of people come here to dive. A lil sad coz we're not.. The lunch was simple but good. Lots of shopping along the road on Phi Phi. SO many to buy, so little time/ money. hahah..
Wanted to try the bread here. coz there's so many bakery around!! the smell of fresh bread do attracts me! :p
The day trip ends about 4. We went back to our room and rest for abit and continue to chill at Pharanang Cave beach.
Sunset! :) it's really romantic for couple! too bad bie is not here.. :(
SO calm *self claim* heheeh
Yours truly & dearest Tania.
Dinner! Star shape rice! SHO cute!
Overall, i had fun in Krabi, no doubt the limestone and beach combination is unique. But there't not much corals or pretty fishes to see.. the stuff here are pretty pricey as compare to Bangkok and stuff.. Probably it's overly congested by tourist.. im not sure.. Also, I have gotten diarrhea on the last day.. :( dymn that cheese burger! sniff..
