The Place: To complete the circle from Phuket and Phi Phi, we found ourselves on the mainland once more in Krabi. Having saturated our beach appetite on Phi Phi we decided to opt for another jungle adventure . . . with a difference.
Some features: No elephants nor bamboo rafting, this time kayaking through mangrove forests to secret lagoons (secret from the unpaying tourist). We ventured past monkeys who clambered on our canoes (and us), through caves, to monkey inhabited beaches and past the human bones of old vikings until reaching the sea.
Krabi also offered a fantastic place to stay where we jammed with the locals (drums, guitar and the egg (egg shaped shaker that is!)) singing both Thai and western songs.
We also enjoyed a stroll on its beautiful beach and excellent Thai cuisine. I'm now a Thai Green curry with Chicken addict.
Strange observation: Thank you in Thai is "Korp kun". If you're a male "Korp kun kap", a female "Korp kun ka" and if a ladyboy "Korp kun ha".

Dude! Those are full on baboons! I'd be scared - those buggers have got really big teeth.
I totally hear you on the green curry. I also never used to like shellfish till I went to thailand and had prawns and crab and lobster and millions of wonderful meals. drool.
