Ao-Nang beach

In the afternoon we went ot the beach where it was quite hot. We found a shady spot to sit and play in. Eventually it got too hot and some of us went in for a dip. EV didn't go in but played with her sunnies instead. It was certainly a nice way to spend a few relaxing hours.

Sleeping in and taking it easy

We had a leisurely morning where we all slept in. Slowly we all woke up and got down to different tasks. Surprisingly MV was the last to wake up, but she didn't mind as she had a lovely breaky by the pool. Eventually we called Mr Bumbum, our local driver, to come pick us up and we headed into town. We walked around a bit before we stopped for some juice and lunch. SV then got a coconut to try with mixed reviews.

Vegetarian birthday dinner

Once the rain cleared off we took a taxi to the beach for a sunset walk to dinner. SV got to pick the dinner venue and chose a vegetarian Indian buffet. The food was really good although sitting on the floor was fun for the first few minutes before becoming quite the challenge. Luckily the people who worked there were super nice and played with EV so the rest of us could eat. SV got a giant hot dog which suited her nicely.

Villa pool time

After opening presents we were all keen to get into our private pool to cool off. It was great fun until the clouds started rolling in. We kept swimming and jumping until we heard thunder. It was a good signal to get out as shortly after a tropical storm passed right through and drenched everything.

Celebrating SV's 8th birthday

We caught a taxi to the villa where we unpacked and unwound a bit. Then we opened some of SV's birthday presents since it was her actual birthday. She was really excited and was even happy for MV to get a present too.

Arriving in Ao-Nang

After another very pleasant flight we arrived into Krabi where we got picked up in a rather fancy van. The driver then took us near some spectacular cliffs on the way to Ao-Nang where we were staying. Once there we stopped at the beach and played a little bit. It was hard not to as it was really spectacular. We then had a quick walk around town to get our bearings and a lunch of SV's choosing since it was her birthday.
