Krabi trip flash back ... ... Might not be 100% accurate

Date: 1/26/2007 - 1/29/2007 (4 days 3 nights)
This tour consists of 9 ppl (4 girls, 4 guys, and 1 little Indian tour guide)

Day 1
7:30am - Friends gathered at my house and we car pool to Greenlane McDonald
8:30am - Van arrived. Started our journey to Hatyai
12:oopm - reached Hatyai and check-in to New Season hotel. After checked-in we went for lunch and had some nice food near Lee Garden.
2:00pm - Free and easy after lunch. So we went for shopping at the famous market. I didn't buy anything for myself, just bought some tidbits as souvenir for my friends and family.
4:30pm - Went for Thai Massage @ a hotel (forgot what's the hotel name dee :P) - Really feel good and relax after the massage
6:30pm - We rushed back to the hotel and prepared to go to Hanna Palace for the Cabaret. It was the performance by the She-Male... they all really look like girls from far and near but too bad there was no surgery for their voice. Which means when they talked to you, you will get shocked ... "Come here, come here... "(you will know what i mean if you were there)
9:00pm - After the show, we went to a night market somewhere nearby. The market is quite big as you can find a lot of stuff there. Clothes, belts, shoes, food, accesories whatever you named it. Looks like everyone has bought something for themselves, me too... I bought a handbag for my elder sister - as her birthday present
11.30pm - Headed back to hotel with "tuk tuk" and after shower, we (Jen, me, Rohan, Dan) went to Pary's room to play card ---> bluff and those who lose have to drink... luckily i didn't lose a lot ---> Good Night

Day 2
The day start with a silly mistake ... :P and i have made myself woke up early and gave a morning call to the whole world .... Guess what mistake I have made???
:
:
:
I forgot to change my time!!!! I woke 1 hour earlier from the time which we have agreed. So i woke up at 5am (Thai time) overlooked the time in Malaysia time. I asked Jen to set the alarm and she forgot to set 1 hour later as well... so when the alarm rang, i straight away went to the toilet clean up myself without double check on my watch. Then after came out from the toilet i started to give a morning call to everyone of them until i called Dan's room then only realised that i have created a joke to them :P The funniest thing was Lynn and Nicole also as blur as me, they didn't check the time as well... and luckily i managed to stop them b4 they went down to the lobby.

7:00am - Breakfast time
8:00am - Van arrived. Started our journey to Krabi
12.30pm - Reached Ao Nang...The driver didn't stop the van for us to go toilet all the way... a bit suffering for us and everyone looks tired and hungry and dizzy after sitting so long in the van.
1:30pm - checked in to our hotel - Ao Nang Beach resort, Krabi Thailand. The resort is facing the sea and we can see several islands from our resort.
2:00pm - Time to cure our hungry stomach. we went to a Thai restaurant nearby and had our lunch. We found that the level of spicy in Hatyai and Krabi is different as when food is listed spicy in Hatyai, the food is served with really spicy - eat till you cry level. However, the very spicy food listed in Krabi is served with sweet and not spicy. May be there are more foreigner in Krabi to they have to custom the spicy level in order to suit the foreigner taste.
4:00pm - finished our lunch and we seperated in 3 groups. Jack, Eng and Nicole went for shopping; Dan, Jen, Rohan and Pary went to the beach to swim and to make sand castle; Lynn and I went for explore the road and took some photos for our blog :P
5.30pm - Finished exploring the places nearby and i guess Ao Nang beach is the most happening place in the town. Went for some shopping and bought some post cards. Then, i went back to hotel to have a rest (as i woke up at 5am... :P)
7:00pm - Joined Dan, Rohan, Jen and Pary for dinner @ McD as they wanted to try the Pork burger. After dinner we stroll along the street and do some shopping. I bought a nice necklace for my sister and all of us went for Inai Tattoo... The Tattoo was cool :)
11:00pm - reached hotel, took shower and went to Rohan's room to play cards again... playing Big2 tonight as Dan was down unconcious......---> Good night

Day 4

Time flies especially for happy and enjoyful moment. This trip would leave a good memory for all of us. It's time to go back home!!! and it's not an easy trip to go home as we need to take 8 hours van to go back to PG!!!! Oh, help me!!

9:00am - breakfast

10:30am - van reached and we started our journey back to Hatyai.

3:00pm - reached Hatyai. It was late because the driver keep on stop in every 30 minutes... we were very pek chek with the driver as the one who sent us to Krabi didn't want to stop for us to go washroom while this one keep on stop every 30 minutes.... That's why we reached Hatyai late. We have 1 hour to spend before leaving home. So we girls went for last minute shopping and i didn't ask that the guys going to do... before get into the van, i rushed to McD to ta pao my dinner... Just in case :P

4:00pm - heading home and reached home before 8pm

Jack and Nicole was on MC the next day ... due to van sick and food poisoning...

This is a good experience for all of us, for our friedship. Hope we can travel together next time... LooKinG FoRw@rD
