Islands

After waterfalls, hot springs, beaches....it's time to hit the islands off the coast in the Andaman Sea.  These mass tours, on speedboats, last about 6 hours and make a number of "stops"at different places.




Snorkeling!


I don't have an underwater camera, but the fish started amassing around the boat and so I could see them at the surface.

The secret to getting the fish to come?  POTATO CHIPS!



Chickenhead Island!



Phra Nga "Princess" cave.  And yes, those are exactly what you think they are!

So on our last day, Onions wanted to head to Phi Phi Island.  We went snorkeling again and used the potato chip trick!  We were the most popular people at the beach.


Maya Bay, Phi Phi Island.  Although the islands here are beautiful....Halong Bay in Vietnam is infinitely more spectacular.

Upon return to the beach, I passed the guy who was selling pictures (in a frame with glued on seashells) of us that he took when we were boarding...I thought, "WHO BUYS THIS STUFF?"  Turns out...my boyfriend!  :)
