Still in Phi Phi, this place is incredible! The day before last we took in Long Beach which was beautiful but on the 'quiet' side of the island and had a richer clientele. The walk to get there was a bit of a mission, there was some serious guesswork going on as to where the path was going! Then yesterday 10 of us hired out a longboat to take us around the island, we went over to Phi Phi Ley where we landed on Maya Bay where they filmed 'The Beach', it's absolutely stunning. We also stopped off in various places to snorkel which was unreal. It was my first time snorkeling and did not disappoint... I had a bit of a shock though as my snorkel had water in from where I had jumped in so he first thing I did was inhale a huge amount of water! The was not the best thing in the world as I did panic slightly right ion the middle of the ocean! The fish are incredible, the colours are so vibrant and we saw some coral as well. I dived down to get a closer look and was a bit too late taking a breath so got another mouthful of water...not so good.
I have got my first burn, it's just a tiny patch but it hurts so much. The toe splinter seems to have sorted itself out but I now have a cut on the sole of my foot!
Probably leaving in the next couple of days to hit the full moon on Ko Phangan...promises to be a good trip.
looks amazing!!
