Ao Nag - Ko Lanta

Well we left the 250 Baht per night Bungalow for the Isalnd of Ko Lanta. We had heard good things about Ko Lanta from Vicki (Pommy Girl we meet last time in Thailand) but the Lonley Planet South Est Asia guide has nothing on the island (Except where it is on the map). So it was a bit of a stab in the dark on if we would like it or not. Leaving Ao Nag at 9am for the ferry terminal. The ferry did not leave until 10.30. At about 10am we had to Long Boat it out the ferry being that is was low tide and the bigger boats could not get in. Very funny watching the westerners transfer from one boat to another about 2 km's from shore. The Thai People can fit anything on these Long Boats.The ferry ride was very pleasant and only took a couple of hours....starting to get use to Thai time.

Landing in Ko Lanta we caught a Tuk Tuk to Long Beach, we had been told that long beach is the best beach and the rest have rocks etc scattered around. We found a very nice Bungalow at a place called Lanta Palm Beach Resort. 600 Baht per night and we had a fanned room with western toilet big king bed and hot water shower. The Bungalow was right on the beach front and we had 3-4 restaurants around us with about 5 different bars.

First night on Ko Lanta Carly and thought we would have a couple of drinks after dinner (Pizza as getting sick of Thai food). Well Carly went to bed about 11.30ish....I should have done the same!!!! Ended up meeting these pommy guys and they were teaching me some drinking games......along rolls 2.30am and Blair's staggering home thinking he should have left with Carly. Needless to say yes I did throw up that night but made the whole lot in the toilet.....a small feat that I am proud of :-)
