Around The World 2005

We "were" traveling around the world and we want to share part of this adventure with you on this blog. The updates have been quite late but we will put the trip until the end, so check once in a while. Some cities have an hiperlink to a .kmz file. That is a Google Earth location file. If you have Google Earth installed it will take you to the city when you click on its name.

Krabi II

5/27/05
We travelled to Bangkok on that day but since the bus was scheduled only for 4 P.M. we had, pretty much, the whole day in Krabi. The plan was to go to Railay in the morning to climb and be back in Krabi in time to catch the bus.
Unfortunately the wait for the local transportation to Ao Nang was quite long, where we would take the boat to Railay. When we got to Ao Nang, we had to wait again until the boat had enough passengers to depart.
It was 10 am by then and it was too late, we would not make it back in time. So we came up with a plan B and went for a Thai massage.
Oh gosh, that was so good! Once relaxed, we spent time on Ao Nang beach and walked in the direction of Krabi.
Close to Ao Nang there is Nopparat Thara Beach and it was funny to see that all local people avoid Ao Nang and get together there. There were hundreds of families picnicking along the beach under the trees just between the road and the sand of the beach.
We then took a cab back to Krabi, bought some fruits and waited for our bus.



The trip to Bangkok was long but not too difficult, we had a bus to Suratthani where we had to get off and wait for another bus going to Bangkok.
The second bus was a 2 floor luxurious bus packed with backpackers.
We arrived in Bangkok at 5:30 A.M.
