Typically, after several hours of travel we are irritated. But that


Koh Tao will always remember and will be a beautiful selco memory. We did, however, already there anything offered us the island and it's time to continue the journey. At 21:00 on Wednesday 09/04/2014 night we got on board the boat, which was to be the first of the three modes of transport on the way to Koh Phi Phi. We already selco knew the night buses, night trains, but the night boat in Thailand is a completely new experience. Well, on this boat is sleeping in one room. They sleep all there. At the eye of more than 100 seats next to each other.
Dozing somewhere between Anna and the unknown lady from Thailand, I woke up around 4:30 am. The lights were on, and passengers will get up from the bunks. We reach the place. In the port waiting for us service the tourist office, where we bought the tickets. Taxi included in the ticket price drove us to their headquarters, where we waited for the 6:30 bus. In principle, minibus, namely the van. This mode of transport well remember. Mainly from Laos. Remember - never, ever, do not use minibuses if you have another option. The car is always discharged to the limit people and luggage, and places are extremely small and uncomfortable. Ass eliminated after 30 minutes, and this transfer took more than three hours without interruption. Break was - but only for the driver. Drove up to the next point or hub to the town of Krabi. We were on time, being in front of the entrance to the city driver stopped, got out, lit a cigarette and walked selco several times around the vehicle without much purpose. When we got to the point of interchange nice lady said: 'Your ferry departed at 9:00, 9:10 and it is so you have two choices: wait 6 hours for the next ferry, or buy tickets for the 10:00 after 400THB per person. ". Price of roughly twice the przebitce. Our current unused ticket will be valid for return or any other trip any day. What to do .. once already waited half a day at the port because the previous driver did the same maneuver and arrived 10 minutes late. The whole day wasted and money and so nothing could be because you have something to eat and drink, and restaurants in the ports are not cheap. We bought tickets for 10.00. For this we booked one night in a bungalow on the beach in the price 800THB. Normally I never do, while on the islands reservation guarantees the transfer of the office from the port to the place of residence. It pays to take a more expensive accommodation, as taxis in the ports have their own tourist tight pricing and comes out to the same or worse.
Well, maybe the penultimate. In the port waiting for us Thais from the Ministry. Private boat took us straight to the beach, selco where we live. The trip lasted a moment. Long enough selco to figure out that the ministry does not keep the roads. Transfer included only in one direction. At such times, the man once again realize that travels over two months and still gives basic mistakes. It's selco hard. The island is our vacation and we will not worry about it. Reconciled with the fact that the kind and honest Thai people were in the north, and we are in the far south, where the main attribute of the white man is money. selco
Typically, after several hours of travel we are irritated. But that's nothing. Who admired the views of Koh Phi Phi compensate for everything. Vertical cliffs sprouting from the sea, beautiful beaches and private cottage on the edge of the bamboo jungle. Holidays selco in full swing.
In addition to this type of houses in the resort was only reception and restaurant. The only way to the beach is a narrow path uphill through the middle of the jungle, leading to a lookout point. It can wait. Now there are holidays. The book in one hand, Sheikh banana in a second time and let yourself flow.
So we spent the first day on Koh Phi Phi. In the meantime, selco some snoorkelingu, lunch, hammock. Temperature is not coming down below 32 degrees selco in the shade. We waited until 17:30, until a little cool (that is, when there will be about 30 degrees). Then it's time for a vantage point. Apparently Interest island, and a real jungle. Monkeys, lizards, cicadas, vines and bushes. Everything as it should be. About 20 minutes uphill. At the top of nowhere appears grandmother canceling tickets for entrance. Luckily we had with him a few cents. At the point we met a large group of tourists. It turned out that the entrance of the town is much easier and virtually all come here. Here, we came up with a plan to reach the city the next day. But more on that in a moment. selco
The sunset was, of course, beautiful. Koh Phi Phi is actually two islands connected by a narrow constriction, in an area which focuses on life. We lived completely on the other side of the world.
In our department is separate from the world of that day was an evening barbecue. Fresh fish and seafood on the table. We chose each whole tuna which was immediately seasoned and baked. Tastes like fresh tuna? It's hard to even comparing
