Krabi, Phi Phi Island Day 4

4th day of my holiday: this will be the last day at Phi Phi Island before we head off back to Ao Nang Beach. So, we decided to go easy this day and take our time to scroll around the beach and try on some of the foods.

Beautiful Beach

Taking photo for rememberence

While walking around Phi Phi Island, we saw this restaurant which seems to pack with people most of the time. So we decided to have our lunch here. The unique thing about this restaurant is that the wall is filled up with pieces of A4 papers with writing from the tourist that had eat here.

Krabi, Phi Phi Island Day 3

Krabi Day 3 
Staying overnight at our PP Casista Cottage at Phi Phi Island. The following is the photos we took while on our way to the restaurant for our breakfast. 


The Cottage we stay for the night. =)

A swimming pool for the guest to use

This is the hotel I'm staying

Breakfast

After breakfast, we went around Phi Phi island to look for the best half day tour available which we can take. Finally we settle for one and waited for the usher to walk until our tour center and show us the way to the beach. For those of you are not very familiar with the waves, please bear in mind the sea-sickness. Apart from that, splash on LOTS of sun block! We went for snorkeling, see the monkeys by the cliff, an old caves and famous James Bond beach.
 
Saw this creatively architecture restaurant. A boat up at a tree.

The boat we use to half day tour on the sea

Here we go....

Snorkeling, can see very pretty fish..

Monkeys on one of the cliffs

THE famous James Bond beach. It's crowded with people on that small stretch of sea beach
After nearly whole day out in the beach, by the evening around 5pm, we finally reach the Phi Phi mainland. We walk along the stretch of beach, sight-seeing and buying most of our souvenirs there, then we went to Seven-Eleven to buy mee cups and alcohol drinks.
 
Our dinner for the night

The outcome of the day out, a cut on my toe due to the sharp stone during the tour. Luckily I got this cut while walking from the boat to the beach. Not during the trip, else I won't be able to enjoy the tour. But I did walked with this bloodied toe for shopping before going back to hotel. Luckily the cut is not deep.

Krabi, Phi Phi island Day 2


The next day, we went to Phi Phi Island. We used the big ferry to go there and the ride was around 2 hours.

 


Finally reached the jetty. The beach is very pretty, however, the jetty is cram with people. Cannot believe so many people actually came to this island. The funny thing is that in the island there is no automobile on the island. You can travel from one place to another location by using your feet. 


When we arrived the jetty, our escort from our Hotel (PP Casita) is waiting there to escort us to our hotel.

Another photo with Thailand flag above my head.
Besides the jetty. The house and boats...

After walking and check in our hotel, we went out and searched for lunch. We noticed one restaurant and decided to go in for lunch. The weather there is extremely hot and most of the shops there is open air, no air conditioner at all. 
Our hotel room. We order the cottage room for our stays there
My favorite dish in Thailand. Rice with soup.

After lunch, we decided to explore and walk along the evacuation route during Tsunami. It was a long way up using stairs and I was exhausted when I finally reached the top. If Tsunami is really going to happen, I do not think I will be able to out-run the waves with my stamina.

Follow the sign
Using the stairs, go up and up
More stairs... Getting extremely tired.
Finally, going to reach view point 1 soon.
Ta-da, I'm up there already
The famous spot to take photo
After photo and resting for a while, walk down all the stairs again

After reaching view point 1 and snap some photos up there for memory, we need to walk all the way down again to the beach. Since I had burned much calories by walking up and down the stairs, I ordered a large slice of pizza.

And reach the beach.
80 Baht per slice. This is the standard slice

Krabi Trip Day 1


I went to Krabi last year during August but unfortunately I do not have time to blog during end of last year due to certain issues. If i remember correctly, I do not think I finish blogging my Bali trip or Genting, KL trip March last year too. I promise I will try my best to finish blogging Krabi trip, then continue with other trips. 

Booked an early flight from Kuching to KL so that we will arrives around noon time at Krabi with half day being able to do sight-seeing there. Breakfast as usual the famous McDonald at the KIA airport.

Still sleepy.. Need my coffee
After transit at KL, finally we reached Krabi airport. Turn out Krabi airport is a bit shabby and small, not much shops around too. Nevermind, once we get out to the lobby, our van from our accommodation of the night is there waiting to bring us to our hotel.

Walking towards my hotel of the night

There it is, Ben's hotel
Finally check in to the hotel. After checking in the hotel, we left our luggage and started to explore the hotel and Krabi city.

Our hotel room for the night. Kindly ignore my back.


They fully utilized the space. They use the space between building to building to build a pool. Creative yes?

No chance to use the pool, but manage to take photo. lol
Then out to the street for adventure and sight-seeing!!

Trying to be funny...

Sea-urchin? No idea how they preserve it...
I WAS THERE! @ walking street An Nang Krabi

The beach
