Thai Food, hobbies, photograph, travel | 1 views No Pilipala »


Post for: 5th May 2008

TAKE NOTE YA… today… i mean this post… gonna have.. around 100 pics ok.. ya.. lots of pics.. hopefully it wont kill your internet connection.. phew… let’s start…

 
Today is the first day we gonna start with our activities in Krabi… (Ao Nang) so… we have to wake up early… ya… real early around… err.. 7am… yeap.. so that we can have our breakfast… in the Hotel.. ya.. the price we pay for our Hotel Room included breakfast…


here’s the breakfast buffet i took.. the eggs… the bacon, sausage and ham too…


yeap.. we had our breakfast beside the pool

 
and here’s the place we can sit.. to enjoy our breakfast…

 
you can chooes to sit beside the pool as well.. but just becareful, don’t drop into the pool ya…


after breakfast we still have time to walk around Hotel.. to take some photos of the Hotel

 
here’s the one and only lotus flower i saw in the Hotel… so big.. and nice…


and here’s the way to get to our hotel room


They have computer there too.. but… is not free.. so we didn’t use it


here’s the corridor to our room.. guess what… the scary part of this hotel is… at night.. around 12am i think.. they will off the light.. ya.. whole Hotel outside.. except for your own room.. all lights will turn off.. so scary lor…


Outside of our room there’s a space which have the massage services.. but we didn’t massage here.. cause is much expensive than outside ^^ as usual… Hotel rate mar…


So this is the Hotel Main entrance… and ya… all the shops.. is just right beside this hotel…


see.. just beside the Hotel there’s shop d… remember if you wan to shop for souvenir.. then you have to go to your left after you came out from the hotel… if you wan to eat nice seafood at Restaurant Wangsai Seafood then you have to turn to your right….

 
Because we still have quite a lot of time.. so we decided to walk around.. and we found this.. the Daily Tour SIMILAN ISLAND.. we was like.. what? SIMILAN? why they so rude one say bad word :p hehe


ya.. there’s lots of travel agency around.. so remember to survey before you decide k..


here’s the beach @ Ao Nang… is not as pretty as the beach we get to see at the other island… just a normal beach.. i didn’t even go down to step on the sand… phew…

after some walking.. finally is time… for us to gather… at the travel agency…


hehe… before we went up to the giant TUT TUT.. we pose pose right in front of the Travel Agency.. can you guess who’s leg is that?

 
and here’s our giant star combination.. ok.. let’s see.. how our travel agency look like…


tada.. this is the travel agency.. they have lots of package… so you can actually choose the one you like


and they have taxi service as well :p so now you know roughly how much it cost for the transport.. but take note ya… you can bargain the price… ^^


this is the travel agency we book our Canoeing (kayak) and island Hopping packages… but.. for our Canoeing we actually book thru a hotel… which cost us around 500 baht per person for a half day canoeing @ Ao Thalene… which i think is quite worth the money…

finally get a chance to take my own picture.. here’s me…


omg… more Ling coming.. this monkey.. actually pregnant.. omg… so scary.. cause… i don’t have any food for her to eat…

After kayak.. around 4km… roughly lar.. not really sure… then… we gonna go some small beach to rest.. and eat some pineapple… before we reach the beach.. we pass by some place with is surrounded by mountain.. really nice view.. but i didn’t get to take.. cause… my battery out d.. -_-" my extra battery…. is in the bag.. which is lock @ the other island.. phew.. so.. didn’t get to take photos.. sigh… nvm… we still have jed, jen and rames… hehehe… so we continue kayak.. till a point.. suddenly the current of the water is very fast… is real fast till we thought that there’s a waterfall in front.. (cause we cant see the front part at all) so we thought.. OMG.. we gonna die this time.. OMG… there’s waterfall.. OMG… but end up.. actually not.. there’s no waterfall… hahaha.. is just some wave… cause.. we are out of the forest area… and kayak back to the sea again..  so.. there’s some wave….


here… they have monkey too.. phew.. what i pass to him? i pass pineapple to him.. ya they like pineapple.. weird right… and the best part is.. after they got the pineapple.. they will actually wash it before they eating it… phew… smart…


see.. here’s our guide… he really good in kayak.. and cutting the pineapple.. ya.. he cut all this… at first we didn’t know why he take the pineapple.. we thought he wan to give it to the monkey… after he cut.. he just hold the whole plate of pineapple.. and act like wanted to give it to all the monkeys.. but.. surprisingly… they didn’t come and grab the pineapple.. but they run away from that guy instead.. phew…


ok.. is time to have another group picture again… from left to right.. Selina, Me, Jacklyn, Jen, and Winnie…

PEANUT BUTTER definitely taste much better… and the chocolate flavor taste a bit disappointed.

After eating the Pancake.. then.. take bath.. then… we decided to go Krabi Town to continue our shopping there.. so we took the Krabi Town TUT TUT which cost 40 baht per person (this one can’t bargain, cause is standard price) and we sit for around 30 mins then we reach Krabi Town… (is quite fast if you keep talk talk talk.. cause you wont feel the time pass slow… and ya.. we did that.. keep talk non stop)


we walk around Krabi Town.. and found a wet market area.. so we went in there.. and found food in there.. so we decided to look for food.. for our dinner… and we found this… which they sell BBQ sausage… is BBQ PORK SAUSAGE… which taste really weird.. i had a bite.. and just pass it to Brandon.. cause i can’t take the taste.. and smell.. it taste weird… and smell weird too.. sigh…

here’s the cheese stick.. which i don’t like.. hmm.. so Kelvin and I… ordered something else…


This.. cause we order a set which serve two person.. and the garlic bread is part of the set :p nice.. yumm yumm.. crunchy.. ^^


and this is what i ordered… the Cabonara Chicken Pasta… taste.. not as nice as the other… haih.. regret…

Actually the main purpose of the blog today.. is to Thanks.. to… Wen Jing and Kelvin (Brandon’s Bro) for accompany me to the office… seriously is a bit boring.. but still.. we enjoy it right.. hehe :p
