Samui to Ao Nag




We were wanting to move on from Samui being that it was very crowded and prices are through the roof compared to 14 months ago when we were last here. A friend that meet up with on our last trip to Thailand recomended that we should try Ko Lanta. So again we booked through a local travel agent, this time breaking the trip into 2 days. So rising at 6am for our 9am ferry to Sarat Thani. Onto a big bus which takes us into Sarat Thani and drops us at a local travel agent for something to eat. There we thought it would be wise to book accommodation ahead (don't want another episode like in Samui). 250 Baht a night at the Andaman Resort.....very cheap warning bells should have gone off. Well we got onto a smaller bus with these 4 Israeli girls and the air con was just sustaining the 6 of us. 20 mins up the road we pull into another ferry terminal and on pile another 30 people.......bugger!!!! Well at least this trip is only 2 1/2 hours which would have been cool if I didn't have the ancient dude farting the most awful smell you can imagine. This guy was on par with our old dog Chance (and she could ruin taste buds!!!!). Well we get to Krabi and have to catch a long boat across to our resort on Ao Nag. The bungalow was very basic but the beach was worth it (We decided we were still only going to spend one night). Very quiet night watching Mad Max on TV as the sun was setting in the most premo way.
