Heard of Krabi?? If you haven't, you better mark it down on your "To Visit" list 'coz it's definitely worth the trip. I saw that place on one of the Amazing Race Asia edition where the contestants have to retrieve a clue from the Hong Island Lagoon (if i'm not wrong) and i immediately fell in love with that place!
So, what is one to do? Well, fly there for a holiday of course. I was there from 29th Nov - 1st Dec.. hehe, yeah, on the day immediately after i finishes my 4-month internship at LGM!
My Kakiis for the trip... VIEN and TJ!
Basic Info
- A small town located on the west coast of southern Thailand, the land of smiles. And one of my all-time favourite place for food and shopping (yes, i do shop every once in a while!).
- Famous locations nearby --> Ko Phi Phi, Aonang (i was there!), Phuket, etc.
- A very famous tourist spot among Europeans. In fact, i felt like i was in some European town instead of in an Asian country. Hehe. Lots of ang mohs!
- AirAsia flies in 1x daily, lands at Krabi International Airport (relatively new terminal).
- Flight tickets
= RM 343 during AirAsia promotion. - Accommodation
= THB 1000 / ~ RM 100 for 3D2N stay in Ao Nang Grand Inn - 1-Day Hong Island Tour + Kayaking + Snorkelling
= THB 1200 / ~ RM 120 for a 8.30am - 4.30pm tour that involves an hour journey to main island and its surrounding, kayaking (~ 2 hrs), snorkelling, buffet lunch and kayak and snorkelling gears or equipments. - Food and shopping

Note that in the photo album, there are photos where we briefly hang out at a spot surrounded by sea on both sides. Don't understand? Look below!
See?? Water (sea) on right and left of the stretch of sand (only invisible when low tide)
