Krabi, Thailand
We had a quiet day to recover from sun burn and to stay out of the heat (impossible in Krabi – it’s hot everywhere) and tried out another of Rough Guide’s food recommendations – Hong Ming vegetarian food. It really wasn’t good. So, apart from our breakfasts at Mark and Mays, we decided to ignore Rough Guide completely. So for dinner we headed back to the night market and had oxtail soup with tripe (RIchard’s choice) and I had a curry. The food isn’t as cheap as most night markets we’ve been to but it’s really good and there’s a fantastic atmosphere. Try the mixed fruit shakes and the coconut shakes – to die for!!
We’d gone back to Siam Smile to book another tour and decided on the kayaking round Hong Island as it included snorkelling. It cost over 1000B and it really wasn’t worth the price. The kayaking was great – there were only three of us, so we had two kayaks and lunch aboard the longtail boat was delicious, but the snorkelling wasn’t good where we stopped, there were lots of stinging plankton and Rich got sea urchin spines in his foot.
It was a nice day, but we wished we’d gone to Thalane to do the half day kayaking through the mangrove swamps.
Back to Night market for more oxtail soup and fruit shakes 
Rain, glorious rain! It didn’t make our room any cooler but it was a small break from the humidity
