Last Day in Koh Lanta




























hello everybody!!!
today is monday 23rd, were wtill in Bamboo Bay on Koh Lanta, so quiet, chilled down here we kinda decided to stay for a while. We have been busy bee's tho...
yesterday (Sunday) we did a 4 island snorkelling trip, highlights include finding Nemo and lots of his cousins in 1m of water, a couple of black and white clownfish, a huge 2m ish black and white sea snake, lots of other shoals of fish that were very inquisitive, the emerald cave that was jellyfish heaven and some superb views and beaches with turqouise/emerald seas.
Saturday we hired a Kayak for the day and did som kayaking to the nature reserve, then round the next bay to get a different sunset.
Friday we hired a scooter, two of us on one bike and we did a whole lap of the island which took quite a while, especially on some of the rougher roads, we ended up coming back early as the back wheel had a few broken spokes, but we're fine.
Thursday we snorkelled around our bay, and into the next bay. Lots of angel fish, 5 crayfish in holes, one small red seasnake, lots of batfish and angelfish.
Wednesday was our arrival day, and it was about 9:30-10pm by the time we eventually got to out place.
Bamboo Bay, words cannot do this place juistice, its at the very southern tip of Koh Lanta, there are only 3 resorts in the whole bay and its a mission to get here down potted, rugged dirt tracks but when you get here, WOW, it is breathtaking.
Very quiet and cut off, so unspoilt at the moment but am sure this will eventually change.
There is a huge, deserted beach, well apart from the crazy supercharged turbo crabs that shazza keeps chasing!!!
Tomorrow, (tuesday 24th) we are off to Koh Phi Phi, 90 mins boat ride, probably for 2 days. Then about 2 hours to Phuket where we will be for thursday and friday, then Sat morning we have a (90 min) 9am flight to Bangkok, where our plane for Australia leaves at 5pm. Cutting a little fine but we should have a few hours spare if it all goes Pete Tong!!!
So from Me and Her its all good out here, it almost rained the other day but so far we have been lucky with the weather, and apart from Shazza's burnt bum and my jellyfish stung arms were all good!!
cheers for reading, love to you all
joe and shazza
