My Escape to Paradise: Part II

Day 1:
The first day was spend idling on Karon beach...playing with the waves...soaking in the sun...and to top it all..building a sand castle complete with moats..escpae tunnels and pyramids...

Karon Beach

Lunch..Thai food..awesome as always!! loved the chicken with basil...
After lunch..we set off for Kata..the beach is truly magnificent..and definitely more picturesque than Karon...but we didnt stay too long as Lehmunade was dying to look for 'Island Suits' to get some suits made...so after traversing Kata road for a few times..making a few calls with help of the 7-11 lady..we managed to track the place down...as Artanis and Lehmunade let their imaginations run wild...we head off to quite a seedy looking pub..had some drinks..played darts...
After a few hours..and completely revampin their wardrobes...Artanis and Lehmunade joined us and off we went to get some food...and tis time it was pizza!!

Day 2:
Time for Phi phi!!!

got up really early..had a quick breakfast..and off we were to the ferry terminal..to board the 'Sea Voyager II' to Phi phi...and after 2 hours we were greeted by:
"Welcome everybody, everybody this is Phi Phi Don. Phi Phi don is something something sq km in size...blah...blah..blah" **to be recited in nasal tone..again and again**

Phi Phi!!

got tranfered to another boat and took a ride along phi phi leh (little phi phi)...this is the place with the famouse Maya beach..which we could not see!! cause of apparently turbulent waters near it!!
Tip: Guys...Rent a small boat at phi phi..dont go on the big ones...the small boats actually take u inside all the bays...

so we anchored near Monkey beach.(ne guesses why it is called so....duh..there are many monkeys on the beach!!)
enjoyed Snorkeling!!! wow...the number of fish was truly amazing...a wonderful experience...

after lunch..wadled around on phi phi beach..which believe me..is the most fabulous place ever..with clear waters..and lovely sand..could be there forever...

Waddling at phi phi

Another Tip: Never carry camera when you are waddling in the sea...

After arriving back in phuket..we went down to patong to check out the night scene..ended up in a mexican pub..with good music and 150 types of margaritas!!!

Stay tuned for more....
