Wow, what a great time I have had in Krabi. I have not seen too much of Thailand so far, nevertheless I think, that Krabi really is Thailand at it’s best!

Ai and Vivi asked if I would like to join a trip of them to Phi Phi. So I packed my stuff and we left for the world known island of Ko Phi Phi.

I decided to rent a scooter and explore a part of the Krabi mainland region. Which was a lot of fun, especially on the rural roads. Got great views from the Tiger Cave Temple and a soothing bath in the Hot Spring Waterfall.

After weeks of physical laziness I was ready for some sport. So I booked a full day kayaking tour around (and inside) Ao Thalane. It is a peninsular with huge karst rocks and mangroves along the open sea.

Round about 200 islands are scattered around the Krabi coastline. White sandy beaches, palms, turquoise blue water, and impressive limestone rock formations. Postcard scenery all around.

I had two relaxed weeks in Kanchanaburi. Learned a lot about the Asian war theater in World War II. Went to the seven tiered Erawan waterfall and spent an amazing time with elephants. Basically, I got back on track again :-)

The flight was booked, so it was time to leave for the second part of this trip… Asia, with start in Bangkok.
