Last night when we went to bed at 7:30 I don't think we understood what they meant by the party side of the island. It was pretty much like being in a concert until 2am. The music was insane! Then at 5:30am a crazybthundersyorm rolled in. The thunder had me flying out of bed. Downpour. Lightening. It was like the storm I experienced in Costa Rica in the rainforest. We had tickets for a boat tour at 6am and didn't know what to do. Luckily the thunderstorm stopped and it was just drizzling so we headed to the meeting point.
Up first: Maya Bay. When we first got here there were not many people at all. White sands and blue green waters set admits cliffs of black and green.
So beautiful. Then the people started to come and the rains. As you can see in my portrait two above we got some heavy rain.
Omg the boat we are on had cockroaches and there is one under my seat. Vomit.
so anyway this morning was ironic bc it was cold. Yesterday was so hot with hot water and low tide. Today was overcast with rain, deep water, and cold ocean. By cold I mean not really cold. Anyway it was actually amazing. We were living life. And the rest of the day after the rain was nice! Ok so then we head to this cove to snorkel.
Wowza. Lots of colorful fish.
Then there was this monkey stop which of course I have an ethical problem with. Better hope that the tours never stop coming or these human dependent monkeys they created will have some trouble. But they had baby monkeys, lots of them.
And luckily the humans stayed in the boats- away, so there was no abuse or chains or stupid photos of monkeys on your head. And yeah, if you have any of those photos or one petting a tiger, I'm judging you, big time. You should also go read up on those types of photos and places and then never do that again.
Once we got back we ate more delicious Thai food and then got massages. $9 an hour, count me in. So relaxing.
Mango smoothies laced with coconut milk to finish off our time at Phi Phi and we're off to Krabi.
