Second day, we are going on a tour to phi phi island! (A must go attraction in Phuket)
Someone will pick us up at 8am. (spore 9am)
So i set my alarm at (spore 7.30am).
we are supposed to wash up, have hotel buffet breakfast & set off!!
however, after washing up & preparing to have breakfast, the hotel staff called!!
and told us someone is here to pick us up!
we are damn shocked!!!
and we realised my alarm is set at (phuket 7.30am) -.-''
wth!! lucky we have sort of prepared everything beforehand!
so we quickly grabbed our stuff and run down!
And i realised i left my wallet in my luggage which i didnt managed to lock it in time!
*praying hard that the hotel staff wont steal my money!
Anyway! we set off! in a 15 seater van! which look like this:
And that's how our speed boat look like too!
we sat at the front part of the boat which has no shelter but great scenery to admire at!
wah! we were quite shocked when the speed boat really speed its way thr!
for a moment, it seems more like a rollar coaster ride!
very bumpy and insecure kinda of feeling!
the strong wind blowing my hair like a mad woman!
water splashing in!
quite shiok actually! haha!
First destination: Maya Bay!
Surrounded by mountains/cliffs.
Oh yes, the water is damn clean & clear!
light blue water! with fishes!!
were given only 30mins to swim/walk ard.
we chose to walk ard cos the crowd is crazy!
which reminds me of beach party in movie show -.-''
2nd destination: I forgot what is this called.But this cave is to hunt for BIRD NEST!!
The bamboo is for the 'hunters' to climb their way up to 'steal'
We also get to feed the fishes!
oh look! now the water is emerald in colour!
we were told there are 3 diff shades of colour! cool!
in spore, we only get to see dirty disgusting colour lol!
3rd destination: monkey beach!There's really alot of monkey climbing on the cliff!
Their climbing skill is superb! Its really amazing! haha!
In our zoo, our monkey only get to swing from one tree to another!
But here, they are like spiderman!!
Our tourguide then throw them bread!
which they catch it with their hands! cute max!!
(why didnt they throw banana! see them peel banana also very cute one!)
4th destination:
i forgot whats this island called. krabi?
alighted from the boat. and its time for lunch!
not very feng fu though,
the buffet consist of spaghetti with tomato-based sauce & chai fan de food!
cater for both chinese and angmo
but the fried chicken drumstick is delicious!
everyone took like 3pieces of it!
ambiance kinda of romantic leh!
eating by the seaside! HAHA!
only lack of candles!
after lunch, we walked around the island!
alot of shops selling souvenirs like hats, tshirts, display items..
so we skipped, and went to the beach!
cos its an island, so everywhere we go, water water everywhere!
got kinda of tired & lazy, we went back to our boat to rest.
we are the first to get in!
because they haven even pull the boat near to the shore!
we cant wait & we walked into the above knee length water to get up the boat!
just before we get into the boat,
the 'salesman' stopped us just in time!
he hurriedly took out his goods and show us our photo taken earlier on when we alighted.
Haha! and his effort paid off. cos we bought it!
Next destination: stopping in the middle of sea (like out of nowhere)!
and we are supposed to start snorkeling!
cool! this is my first time snorkeling!!
and its mega fun!!!
the water was said to be 2-3m deep.
preparing our gears, and off to the water!
im super scared when im in the water! that i keep clinging onto bf! HAHA!
i dun really know how to swim, and i feel damn insecure!
even though i know i wont get drown due to the lifejacket but still!! ahhh!!
after like 5mins of clinging, bf held on my hands, and we went snorkeling together!
we are supposed to admire the beautiful colourful corals,
but due to the increasing number of tourists coming here, all the corals are dead!
think the temperature of water is too high for the coral to survive.
but still i get to see the seabed! (of dead corals! HAHA)
so i ended up admiring at the fishes!
damn cool!
can you imagine a school of fishes swam pass you! like within arm length!
bf tried to catch those fish using his bare hands!
and guess what! the tail of the fish 'poked' his hands! haha!
luckily nv bleed! that naughty fellow!
after snorkeling, we are up on the boat again!
fish feeding time! these are the fishes that swam with us earlier on! =D
Last destination of the tour!
A beach side full of beach chairs and shades!
we rented a set to slack as well!
(yes, the chairs are not free! must rent one!
once you sit down, the person will come and collect money!
machiam paying protection fee! lol!)
activities available: swim/snorkel/slack
we chose slack!
actually we wanted to snorkel!
but this time we have to swim out from the beach to the 2-3m deep water by ourself.
like so far! and so mafan!
so we ended up lying on the beach chairs & relax.
after resting, we went to the beachside,
and we realised there is this long long floating pathway (blue&white platform)
so we sat down and enjoyed the currents.
i brought my camera along!
and im so afraid that my camera will drop into the water!
then gg!
my camera not waterproof!!
so whenever there is strong waves, i ended up holding my hands high up like an idiot!
in the pictures, actually can see the 3shades of seawater mentioned earlier on.
we managed to ask someone to take a photo for us!
while he is about to take, waves came splashing on us! (the last pic)
got waves effect! haha!
so he volunteer to take another proper one for us!
so nice of him =)
Yup! thats the end of our phi-phi island tour!we are back to our hotel!
washed up & get ready for round 2!
went back to the bigbig shopping mall!
and bf wanted jap food again!
ordered smth different this time except for his fav bacon rolls!
we finished typically everything!
hungry us! haha!
here's the angry bird design which i mentioned in the first post!
so creative!
as it is rather late alr, we went directly to shops to get our things.
first we went to get his waterproof bag! i forgot to take pictures of the sample!
bf bought 2, one for himself and one for his bro.
which i also bought one for my beloved bro! im so nice! hehe!
the bag looks smth like a punching bag! haha!
quite high in demand, to the extent that we are left with 2 colours instead of 5!
we then went back to the supermarkets for some snacks!
more mentos! LOL! we bought like 30 mentos in total!!
unique cola cola favour!
its really getting late!forgot to mention, the area near our hotel is famous for its night life!
look! their night club!
the qi fen very high with all the bass music!
so we better get back to our hotel before the place turn chaotic!
loots for the day!nothing for myself!
one pair of slipper & the waterproof bag for bf!
stamps for my dad,
waterproof bags for our bros
beer holder for my bro
and tshirt for his bro
the tshirt as can be seen is not "Hard Rock Cafe" but "Hard Cock Cafe" =x
they have a lot of creative tshirts that are too vulgur to wear in spore.
like "pepsi" --> "penis"
To end the day! we went for body massage @ spa outlet in our hotel.we chose after-sun treatment!
as our body is alr red & toasted!
wah, i kinda of regret choosing it!
the after-sun treatment is made up of freezing cold water to first cleanse our body
then freezing lotion for massage.
this is to bring down our sunburn area's temperature!
throughout the whole process, i'm shivering like crazy!!
its very relaxing though!
the room also quite high class!
it consist of a bed, jacuzzi bathtub, and basin!
thumbs up!
