Shoulda Woulda Coulda - Koh Phanang

Koh Phangan - Shoulda Woulda Coulda

We write as we our trekking from Koh Phanang to Krabi, as our Thailand visa runs out tomorrow and we are flying to Singapore to fly back into Bangkok! Had we done this properly (as in booked this visa run when we first arrived in Koh Phanang, we would have saved a lot of money and time, as it is - here we are.)

Our time in Koh Phanang was fun for sure - but also quite the ordeal. We stayed in the northern part of the island, far away from the party - but we had no idea just how far. We were under the impression it was about 20 mins away - in realty it was about 45.. For 200 Baht per person each way. It adds up. Well we arrived on Satrday, caught a taxi (which is benches in a truck bed) and got to our bungalow at shiralea backpackers resort. It was really nice (aircon and hot water!) but sefinitely a journey to get there on where hilly and windy roads. We napped in the afternoon and had an early night as to recover from our time in a Koh Tao.

Sunday we woke up and walked to Salad Beach (up and down two massive hills), hoping to snorkel - but the water visibility was not great due to rain the night before. Salad was pretty but it was overcast so the water looked more murky then bright blue. On our way back to our bungalow we stopped to get a coconut shake and enjoy the lookout view. That night we had a nice dinner on the beach then hung out in the lounge area of Shiralea and booked our hostels for Northern Thailand.

The next day we got up and caught a can to Haad Mae Haad, the most northern part of the island to go snorkelling and check out a bridge sand walkway to Mae Haad island. Thankfully the weather was beautiful! We ventured out on the sand bar walkway to go snorkel, but once out far enough we realised how bad the visibility was and how awful sea lice are. Literally feels like hundreds of tiny jellyfish stingers. We swam in and spent the rest of our time laying out and in the shallow waters - away from the sea lice. We wanted to see Salad beach on a sunny day and caught a cab there - we enjoyed a late lunch, took a few photos and trekked back home. That night we took a taxi down to meet up with Lindsey, David and Beulah for dinner and then to go check out the Jungle Experience - a giant dance party in the woods the night before the full moon party.

Although we made it fun - the night was kind of a bust. We read that if you get there before 11 it is free and after 11 it is 500Baht. We got there at 10, sober, to find out the reason they weren't charging yet is because it had not started. We also quickly learned that Monday was a Buddhist holiday and they could not start serving alcohol until midnight - AND! The buckets were 450baht each. We decided the most cost efficient thing to do was to send two people to go get alcohol and then everyone splits their entrance fee. Laura and Beulah volunteered to go and ...

While they were gone, Lindsey, Alexis, David and Kerri hung out at a meeting point playing word games until they began to get worried. The girls had been gone a long time - are they okay? What happened? Of course neither of them had a cell phone on them (#fail). We were all veryyyy relieved when they arrived back.

We then chugged some drinks and danced! The music was not great and we were determined to have fun but overall it was a little lacklustre. Laura, Kerri and Alexis decided to go home around 4 and caught a packed full taxi for our longggg ride home - the nightlight being snacks from 7-11.

We slept in the next day, dyed Kerris hair and then met Lisa at the pier that afternoon. We got some neon t-shirts, had a snack at the market then went to Lindsey and David's room for drinks and body painting!

We had a great time with the body paint and dancing in our room, got to the full moon party about 12am and danced our asses off til the sun came up!

-Wednesday slept all day, adventure to get our stuff, struggle Cityyy figuring out visa run, dinner crave again
-Thursday taxi to 7am ferry

Koh Tao

We arrived via ferry to Koh Tao on Valentines Day! Although we woke up late and had a nice morning scramble we made it to Koh Tao around 11am. We checked into our lovely hotel, Sairee Sairee Guesthouse (air con!! Hot shower!!) and had a relaxing afternoon. Kerri and Laura popped out to say Hi! to their good friend Lisa from Sydney, while Lex took a nap. That night we went out and had a great time with Lisa at the bar she works at, Fishbowl (part of Ban's Diving Resort)

Kerri Lisa and Alexis being silly

Next day we recovered and had an amazing lunch with Lisa at Zanzibar (delicious western sandwiches), that took an unexpected turn with an hour long torrential downpour rain storm. We had a laid back afternoon and then got ready to go out Friday night! We wore our nerd glasses, drank 4 buckets (ouch) and definitely encompassed "obnoxious Americans." We partied late night with Lisa, Lex fell down and bruised her knee (those who witnessed it yelled "Ohhhhh!") and we all sat outside of 7-11 eating Cheetos and Toasties at the end of the night. Success.

Toasties & Cheetos!

Outside 7-11 haha

The next day the weather was not great again and we spent the day relaxing. We had a lovely dinner with Lisa and some of her friends at a nice steak restaurant up in the mountains.

Sunday we met with Lisa for breakfast and bumped into Beulah and her friend Lindsey. We invited them to come with us to a small island off the coast called Nang Yuan. We had such a great day snorkelling, tanning and walking up to the look out. It was amazing! We finished up by enjoying a lovely Italian meal with the girls and prepared for our move the next morning!

At the Look out at Nang Yuan

Snorkelling!

Feeeesh!

Kerri, Lisa, Lindsey, Lex & Beulah

We moved to Ban's Diving Resort in the morning, hung out with Lisa as she worked at the Fishbowl cocktail bar and then began scuba theory with our incredible Canadian instructor, Krista.

Ban's Diving Resort

We went over classroom materials and then spent the afternoon in the pool getting used to our scuba equipment and basic skills. Although Alexis spent an hour in the pool, scuba was not for her. That evening,
while Kerri did homework, Lex and Laura met up with Lindsey and Beulah for a drink. Laura went home as she had to get up early for diving, and Alexis spent the night dancing with Lindsey.

Wednesday was our first day diving in the sea!!! The first dive was pretty scary, Laura and Kerri were getting frustrated with the buoyancy and weight underwater, really felt like diving may not be for them. But the second dive was ABSOLUTELY amazing!! It was the coolest thing we've ever done, you truly feel like you are on Planet Earth haha. We could not wait to get in the water on Thursday morning!
While Kerri and Laura were diving, Lex snorkelled and had relaxed day. The scuba and snorkel is amazing in Koh Tao!

That night we had another delicious authentic Thai dinner at Su Chili for with Lisa and one of her best friends Luca. To prepare for an early rise for the last day of scuba, Kerri went home to sleep and Laura and Lex went on night walk on the beach and then met up for a drink with Beulah and Lindsey at Lotus Bar.

The second dives were just as amazing as the first two! We swam around coral, saw a ton of fish (trigger fish, puffer fish, angel fish, butterfly fish), and practiced our buoyancy in "buoyancy world" swimming in and out of rings and hoops. Lisa accompanied us on our dives as well because she is working on completing her PADI Dive Masters Course. We LOVED the diving so much, wanted to continue with our PADI Open Water Advanced course so we could scuba at 30 metres, however we didn't have enough time or money to do it this time. It is something that Kerri and Laura definitely want to complete in the future!

Scuba!

We're READY!

On Thursday, while Laura and Kerri were diving, Alexis slept in then was invite on a motorbike adventure with Lindsey, Beulah and David. They rode down to the southern part of the island and had a delicious shake at the beautiful and charming Freedom Bar on Freedom Beach. Then they drove around, got a little lost but was tons of fun. Then went and had an amazing lunch and hike up in the mountains. It was a great day, and Lindsey was such a champ to drive all day!

The next morning we booked tickets to Koh Phanang then Laura, Lex, Lindsey, Beulah and Kerri rented a long tail boat to take us around the island snorkelling. It is a contender for the most Struggle Cityyy experience yet. Our first stop was at Freedom beach where we had coconut shakes. Then we went to shark bay and did some cool snorkelling, it was overcast so not amazing - until on the way back to the boat Lindsey took off and we swam after her and saw a shark! The water was deep but it was reallllyyy cool. On our way to our next snorkel spot, the boat jerked forward and the engine gave out. The driver began calling his friends and we knew it couldn't be good. There was another Thai man on the boat sitting in the front, who came and sat between all of us and then reached under the bow of the boat looking for something. After shuffling around for a minute, he pulls out a bamboo bong and proceeds to smoke sitting in between all of us in the small boat. He only offered it to Laura and she politely declined as we all giggled hysterically. After getting properly stoned, he walked up to the front of the boat and began to change into a sarong bathing suit - which essentially is a cloth diaper on a grown man. All we could do was laugh. About 20 mins later, another long tail boat arrived and towed us - rope around the front of the boat - to shore at Shark Bay. We all donned our snorkel gear and got in the water. In about 5 feet of water, Alexis spotted an octopus and called everyone over to check it out. We watched as two fish tried to mess with the octopus and it changed colors about 10 times trying to get away - it was so cool! We also saw massive schools of fish and some really cool corals close up as we were in shallow water. Heading back to the boat, the engine was fixed and we were off. Well at this point the sky was dark and wind has picked up and the rest of our trip was a Bamboo Island flashback. We got soaked and cold and all considered wearing life jackets as we went over waves and watched water splash in the boat. Needless to say, we were happy when we finally got back.

Freedom Beach Bar

We had a nice dinner with friends then went to a Ladyboy show, which was ridiculous. We had a few drinks at Lotus and Ban's and enjoyed our last night in Koh Tao. Laura and Kerri finished the night out right getting in the pool and making friends who ladyboys who they taught how to do the no-lip face.

Of course the next morning we hd a hungover struggle cityyy transport going to Koh Phangang - but we made it! Now we are resting up as the fool moon party is on Tuesday!

Overall Koh Tao was amazing! We had the best time with Lisa who took such good care of us and we made tons of awesome friends. Lisa has an amazing close circle of friends who were so sweet to be so inclusive and show us such a great time. We all agreed that Koh Tao was our favourite of the Southern Thailand islands and can see why it would be easy (and dangerous!) to live there. We ate the best food, Laura and Kerri discovered a new awesome hobby and nothing like making some new amazing friends to make it feel like home.

Xoxo,
Laura the baby whisperer, Kerri the fish whisperer and Alexis the kitty whisperer

It's Fee Fee and We Know it!

After a long recovery period of illnesses and food poisoning, we are finally ready to party on Phi Phi Island! We woke up Thursday morning, February 7th, had breakfast in a taxi and took the ferry over to Phi Phi. Of course we arrived at the hottest point of the day and per Struggle Cityyy usual had difficulty locating our accommodation and not a single person at the pier was of assistant, but only laughed and pointed in a general direction.

It's Phi Phi!

Phi Phi town - shops, restaurants, dive centers

Phi Phi is a small island with only foot traffic and bicycles. We quickly learned it was peak season and found it challenging to navigate the tiny streets with 40 lbs on our backs... Asking every booking place where "Golden Hill Bungalows" was, again to be pointed a general "that way". After a gruelling 30 minutes and up a mini mountain, we found our accommodation to be the furthest away from anything. It has Great views (minus the trash and water runoff lake in front of us) and a pool, but is inconveniently located. This worked to our advantage though, because it was so far away we never were there except to sleep, and were undisturbed by the loud bar music. Not to mention our room had a single fan with one speed: slow.

Golden Bungalows

Treacherous climb to our bungalow 

Our messy messy room (3 beds in a row)

That afternoon we wandered back down to the town to find the #1 restaurant by Trip Advisor - Anna's Restaurant. Whilst stumbling around, we bumped into a mate from Australia who gave us some good suggestions of things to do while in Phi Phi, which was great! We found Anna's and had a lovely afternoon lunch then trekked back up and spent the day at our pool overlooking our trash lake. We discussed what we wanted to do while we're here and planned out the next few days including booking a half day tour for Friday. Per our mate's recommendation, that evening we went and saw some bad live music and an Ok fire show and called it a night because we were all tired and still on antibiotics.

Fire Show

Friday morning we got up ate a quick breakfast on the steps of 7-11 waiting to be collected for our tour. We took a Thai long boat to some awesome spots including a cave, a gorgeous swimming cove, some sweet snorkelling, Maya Bay (where "The Beach" was filmed) and monkey beach (that was covered in trash). It was a really great tour, we got some wicked photos and funny videos (like how much we hate Thailand and love Phi Phi - pronouncing it "fee fee"). After the tour we were pretty tired so got some shakes, postcards , sat at the beach and took naps. When we woke up, the tide was so low you could walk way past all the boats it was really cool!

Beached Thai Boats

Now that we were all 100% recovered and it was Friday night we agreed to have a big night out - but only wanted to stick with beer. We decided to go to the Thai restaurant, Lemongrass that we ate at the previous night because it was delicious, but it didn't open till 6:30 ... so we got fresh donuts and beer instead. We enjoyed our healthy dinner at an Internet cafe where we struggled to get anything done, then got ready and partied with beers at the loud beach bars - Slinky, Woodys and Stones.

Struggle Cityyy night out

We woke up Saturday morning with awful beer hangovers and agreed that Leo beer wasn't a good choice. We grabbed lunch in town and took a boat taxi to Long Beach, quickly realising once we got there that we should have brought our snorkel gear.. Oops! So we just hung out on the beach, sat in the water with lots of fish and got tan on our ma'ams.

Long Beach (isn't very long..?)

Checking out the rocks at Long Beach

When we got back to Phi Phi, we were hungry (as usual) and bought more donuts (double fisting) as the Thai donut shop man laughed at us and offered us free donuts if we came back tomorrow. Since we didn't make it to Lemongrass last night, we ate there Saturday and were sorely disappointed - especially because it was so good the first time. That night, we did not drink Leo's but red bull vodkas, played beer pong and had a photo shoot with a monkey in a diaper. We went to the beach bars again (with loud music) danced and drank the infamous Thai redbull buckets. It was a fun night, ending in bottles of water and cookies in our beds.

BUCKETS!

BUCKETS!

Sunday morning we were thankful for the lack of beer hangover, but the redbull hangover was a whole nother story. We struggled to lunch at Anna's again and did not move for nearly 2 hours, then crawled to the beach where we continued to feel bad. kayaking was not happening today.. By early afternoon we agreed we should just start drinking again!

We sat at a beach bar for the afternoon getting weird, enjoying Singha beers and not the rubbing alcohol coconut shakes. We stumbled back to our pool and drank more beers while we got ready to have another night out. We heard the fire performance at Stones bar is the best on the island, so we posted up there around 8:30 and enjoyed a Stones treat and watched the show... Kerri was even invited on stage!!

Monday morning we wandered down the pier to try to hire a boat taxi to Bamboo Island for a half day. We were advised that the weather was too windy, so it would be extra expensive to get out there. A bit peeved, we walked around a bit but it was too hot to hike or kayak so eventually we found a boat taxi that would take us to Bamboo Island! Yay! We got in the long boat and as soon as we were out of the cove we discovered just HOW choppy it was! The boat driver took the long way around the island as we giggled in terror, white knuckled for the hour long journey to the island. Again, arriving at mid day - we waded in high tide water covering the gorgeous beach around the island. Definitely the most beautiful beach we have seen on this trip. Due to the big waves, our boat driver instructed us to meet him on the other side of the island. Little did we know we would have to clamber over treacherous rocks to get there. Barefoot and with two large bags, the three of us scrambled over the rocks, laughing and cursing at the same time. We laughed about how this was supposed to be a relaxing day that turned into death boat ride and shoeless "rock climbing." We found our boat and set off for the journey back, which was shorter however much more terrifying as the waves were white tipped and Alexis had to sit backwards as she couldn't watch. At one point a giant wave crashed into the boat, which inspired an emergency plan we concocted, "we can totally swim, there's the life jackets!" Our Thai driver who had been stone faced all day cracked up at our scream and duck from the large wave that came into our boat. Later looking at a map, we realised that toughest part of our journey was actually right over "Shark Point" - which many day trips are advertised that if you don't see a shark then you get your money back. Needless to say, we were veryyy happy to be back on land. Despite our efforts to make this a pain free leisurely day trip - it was absolutely out most Struggle Cityyy moment to date.

We had an adventurous afternoon climbing to the Phi Phi look out, enjoyed a nice dinner and went out for one last night on Phi Phi. Although we had an incredible time, we were all ready to leave and really excited to get to Koh Samui and Koh Tao!

Xoxo
Laura, Alexis & Kerri

Koh Samuai

Koh Samui

Leaving Phi Phi early in the morning, we took a ferry to Koh Samuai, the biggest and most populated of the southern Thailand islands. Samuai reminded us of Bali, very built up and many resorts. We arrived in the evening after a long day of travel.



Once we arrived we caught a cab to our hotel on the other side of the island and had a relaxing evening. We walked around and enjoyed the night markets. We tried to book a tour for the next day but were unable too as they were completely full due to the influx of tourists for Chinese New Year. So we slept in then explored in our own. The waves were much bigger on Samui and the beach was pretty packed. After some exploring and beach time we went to the night markets again and did some shopping! Overall the 36 hours we spent in Samuai was fun, but because we had a great time not because we did anything fantastic there. We were pleased with our planning as all we needed was the day there. The next morning, off to see Lisa on Koh Tao!!

Where Else? Do you go to die.

Ko Lanta = ULTIMATE Struggle Cityyy experience!!

Our ONLY photo of Ko Lanta

Saturday morning we woke up and caught the bus to Ko Lanta, which is only supposed to take about 2 hours. However, it ended up being about 4. We were supposed to leave at 11am.. but we left at 1140 - jammed into a completely full (and very hot) van. We drove about an hour, then (still in the car) took a ferry (for about 20 mins) then sat in about 45 mins of traffic, to take another 20 minute ferry. Finalllllly arriving at our destination. Mind you, poor Laura is feeling very ill - and can barely swallow (sadly her Malaysian hospital experience did not kick the sickness the way we were hoping). 

One of the coolest parts about traveling is meeting new people and swapping travel tips (where to stay, what to do, what not to do). Overall, most people tell stories about how they just show up places, book somewhere and things work out. The three of us have agreed that in our own personal lives, this mentality very infrequently (if ever) turns out in a positive way. Our arrival in Koh Lanta and the subsequent aftermath further solidifies this opinion.

Having done some research on where we want to stay, as well as having a recommendation from our new friends, we figured we'd just "go with it." Well, arriving hot and hungry... the first three places we had researched were booked. We took a tuk tuk further south on the island where our next stop was also fully booked, but thankfully let us put down our packs (mind you, Alexis still needs to be taking it easy because of her back and Laura can't really swallow) and directed us to walk along the beach to find another option.

On our fourth try, we stumbled upon Where Else? (never stay here) bungalows with hippie/reggae themed decor right on the beach. We paid more than we were hoping, but were ready to be where we needed to be, and above all else were very hungry. We got some lunch, unremarkable (at the moment) pad thai. We then took a tuk tuk to the pharmacy (which was closed) to go to the international clinic (which was expensive) to get Laura some medicine. Cringing from money spent, we arrived back to our bungalow, Laura climbed into her mosquito-netted bed, feeling truly awful. Kerri and Alexis had a beer and explored the beach, enjoying a nice walk and a beautiful sunset in paradise. Prior to going to dinner they went to check on Laura who reported that she had thrown up and was concerned she had the stomach flu, as she was not feeling any better. Alexis and Kerri brought her some soup, then went next door to have a lovely dinner. 

After dinner, Kerri said she started to feel ill, and was pretty sure she was going to vomit. Well she did. And then Laura did. And then Alexis did. In our small, poorly lit, only one working fan, mosquito filled room. The highlight, is while feeling her worse, laying on the floor of the bathroom (which really is just a toilet outside), a large hermit crab (who apparently lives there) crawled towards Laura. In summary, it was a long, long night.

Further, we booked Where Else? with the knowledge that our room was booked the next night, but they had another room (at a cheaper price) that could work for us. Sadly, as Alexis stumbled to the reception desk the next morning, that room was not available. After calling about 10 places, we found a place further south that would pick us up this afternoon - thank goodness! 

We spent the night in our aircon room, watching TV and eating soup and crackers and Gatorade. Earlier, Alexis and Laura stumbling to 7-11, trying to figure out which soup was best, had to ask the cashier which one was "No Spicy" as everything was written in Thai. After a long sleep, Laura and Alexis got up to scope out the beach and went for a walk. We write from the internet cafe down the block from our hotel, which is across the road from the ocean. Poor Kerri Lee got the worst of it, and is still not feeling grand. We have decided to stay in Koh Lanta until we are all 100% better before moving on to Phi Phi island, which rest assured, we have already properly booked. 

Lesson learned,

K.Lee, LaLa, Lex

Only a little bit Krabi..

On Tuesday our driver picked us up and took us to the Batu Caves and Kanching Waterfalls. Batu Caves are a famous Hindu shrine that every year (in late January, early February) during Thaipusam, about a million people visit to participate or witness the masochistic displays of devotees. The caves were impressive, however also very dirty (and stinky) as this event took place a few days prior to our visit.  Due to the festival, we were unable to view all of the cave. Laura reports her previous visit was a completely different experience, much cleaner and much less crowded.. But the Batu Caves were still very cool and their scale is very impressive, especially the 141 ft (or 43 meters) Murga statue, which is the highest in the world!

Holding Birds at the Kanching Waterfalls

Our driver took us to visit the Kanching Waterfalls next. It was very lovely to be out in nature compared to the smoggy city, and we enjoyed our hike. Unfortunately we all got a little uneasy when we set up camp and about 20 monkeys surrounded us...then we went back down to a more populated area. Laura being very sick, had been left behind on the trail and had a close call where she was cornered by about 5 monkeys. Thankfully she quickly ran off to catch up with us, and we all stuck close together for the rest of the trip. 

Lucas scaring off all the monkeys with a stick!

Self Timer - JUST IN TIME!

All the ladies!

We had our driver drop us off at a mall on the outskirts of KL for some famously delicious dim sum, then had a relaxed afternoon planning the next part our trip (Thanks Malco and Lucas for all your help!), packing and hanging out in the courtyard of our hostel. 

Last night in KL - Struggle Cityyy

The next morning we woke up early (6am!) and caught a (terrifying) cab ride to the airport. Tearful goodbyes had by all to the Brazilians and we boarded our plane to Thailand at 12:40pm. With an hour time change, we arrived in Phuket, Thailand at 1:00pm. Customs was painless (they didn't even scan our bags) and we got a cab to catch a bus to take us to Krabi. Our cab drivers car was blocked in and he literally pushed the cars out of the way (?) it was ridiculous. 2 mins after we were dropped off at the bus station, our bus arrived. Hungry and thirsty, we were shuffled on for our four hour ride.

Unfortunately, early that morning while moving her pack Alexis had a back spasm. In true Richards form, she ignored it..only making it worse by moving her pack multiple times. By the time she lifted it from the cab (about the 6th time) something definitely was wrong. The whole situation only made worse by the fact that earlier that day she proudly stated, "I'm getting so strong! Carrying my pack is getting much easier!" Alexis was unable to lift her pack and practically in tears, the bus had no more rooms for storage underneath, so Laura carried it on the bus more or less assaulting the other passengers. Mind you, Laura is also deathly ill - practically deaf in one ear and not feeling great (although is quite a trooper). Thankfully Kerri has finally made a full recovery - but it was definitely struggle cityyy. 

Our bus arrived in Krabi, we took a cab to the cute Pak-Up hostel, had some delicious dinner and then went to the pharmacy and got Alexis some $1 USD muscle relaxers. Needless to say she took the night easy. Kerri and Laura scoped out Krabi Town and enjoyed a cold Chang beer. 

The next morning Alexis was feeling better and we all spent the day being productive! Planned and booked some things, laundry, massage (1 hour for $10 USD) and pedi/mani ($10 total) - it was a nice and relaxing day. Krabi has really knocked it out of the park concerning cuisine. We are all also very thankful for the change of menu options - super sick of fried rice and fried noodle! That night we explored the night markets and had some awesome spicy food and a Thai pancake which is similar to a fried crepe (or roti) that was covered in Nutella, peanut butter, coconut and banana - and condensed milk (fat kids!!). Alexis may or may not have had Nutella all over her face....

Friday morning we woke up early and caught a boat to Railay Island. Absolutely beautiful! We spent the day lounging and exploring the island. We tried to catch a different boat back in the afternoon where not only were we the only white people on the boat (with about 30 Chinese people) we were also the only three people not wearing a life jacket. Finally on our way back to Krabi, a Thai guy about our age, Red, chatted us up about our traveling and where to party in Krabi. He was vert sweet until he offered to take us to his house, asked if we liked ladyboys and asked if we did Ice. #Strugglecityyy.

That evening we made friends with Jamie from Scotland who introduced us to his friends, Sarah and Ben from England (check Ben's awesome blog!!). The five of us had an assorted dinner at the night markets and enjoyed a few beers, swapping stories and having fun! We look forward to seeing them again!

Krabi has been great, although we are still not feeling 100% we are heading to Koh Lanta tomorrow!

Xoxo,
