Krabi Part 2

Now, let's continue our journey...

After 2 nights in Phi Phi, we took the speedboat back to the mainland, Krabi. It's totally different lah from Phi Phi. Dia lebih kurang macam Pantai Cenang kat Pulau Langkawi...much NICER, of course :)

We stayed at a really nice hotel, Vogue Resort & Spa at Aonang. Also booked from Agoda and at that time it was on promotion. I think we payed less than RM 200 / night. The room is supernice, memang suitable for honeymoon gitu.

My favourite! The tub

I was quite upset that the room was not decorated as per honeymoon package - then I realized we did not inform them that we're honeymooners. The good news is when I informed the front desk, they immediately decorated our room with rose petals and filled up the tub with roses, the next day of course. Ah..bliss..


Here, everybody got around with a motorbike. Good thing Hafiz knows how to ride one...hehe

I wanted the scooter...tapi motor kita yang dekat belakang tu..


Main Strip in Ao Nang



We visited the 'pasar malam' and we loooove the finger food. One of it is 'roti stim'

Multiflavoured steamed bread


And of course the sinfully delicious Thai Pancake..

Encore! Thai Pancake


Since we already did the island hopping in Phi Phi, we decided not to do any water activities in Krabi. What we did was....

                                                            RIDE AN ELEPHANT !


It was a totally new experience for us! It was a one hour ride in the jungle and we both took turns to man the elephant.

Days in Krabi were spent crusing around on the motorbike and visiting historical places:
I must admit it was not easy navigating with a foreign map. But Alhamdulillah we made to most places..

Places to visit would be the :

Tiger Cave Temple - worth a visit but i have to warn you its a LONG walk up to see the temple, but the view is amazing.

Hot Water Spring -  I did not really enjoy it. Well, we got lost trying to find it and there were too many people

Emerald Pool - Entrance fees is 200 Baht. But you can only see. So jungle trek, see pool, turn back

Other than that, we enojyed the Krabi town and of course, the stretch of Aonang, which gets livelier at night..
