Krabi

So, we landed in Krabi. Found a nice accommodation, did nothing but running around and eating and some internetthings on the first day. On the second day we went kayaking in the morning. This is really cool. It was for both of us the first time and we enjoyed it a lot. Met some monkeys which ended up climbing on our heads when one guide put some pineapple on us. Here is one of the monkeys.

And that is us.

Later that day we went to cooking class. I learned how to cook Green Thai Curry, including the Curry Paste, Pat Thai, Tom Ka Gai, Papaya Salad, well all the important Thai dishes.

Me, cooking

The instructor was too cute. Imagine, she has 3 cooking classes each day, 6 days a week. And she has been doing that for 3 months now. If I was her, I would probably kill myself. She tld us, that on her free day, she goes.. guess what: climbing! This climbing thing is a chapter itself. Read more about that later.

So we did that course and it was great. And if I say that, you can for sure belief it as I totally hate cooking. The only problem was that we had to eat everything we cooked. And that was a lot. 6 dishes altogether. Beginning with the Tom Ka Gai soup which is normally enough for one meal already.

We could roll home that day.

Next day we left to Railay beach by longtail boat. This is the famous beach for climbing. As it is too expensive there we went to another beach, called Ton Sala or something like that and checked in at a resort, recommended by the Lonley Planet. It was the worst place we have been so far. The bungalow was sooo dirty and totally broken, we were scared to break trough it. After 2 nights sleep or lets better say after two sleepless nights we changed to a cute place, Jungle Hut Resort, 50 Baht cheaper and clean, just about 500 stairs to climb and not too many rats and no monkeys either. We were told that at some Resorts over there we must not leave anything outside or leave the window open during the night because things get stolen, not by people but by monkeys. They even sell slingshots in every 7/11 over there because you have to be really tough with those monkeys.

I couldn't be bothered to make any pictures because I was so tired and exhausted from climbing that I tried not to move a single toe in my "spare time"
