krabi day 3 - island safari

day 3 was pretty relaxing as well... i didnt get a chance to do my bungee jump again!!! anw day 3 was spent rafting and elephant riding at island safari....

our pix taken after the rafting... no chance to take pix during rafting...

our elephant riding... the tour guide helped us to take a series of pix and charged us $200THB!!! but the thing is that out of 20 pix he took, mebbe only 4 or 5 of them are clear... see below for the "blur" pix....

and besides elephant riding, they have ox-cart as well... and similarly the "driver" offered to take pix for us... this time round, being smarter, we kindly rejected his offer.... no free lunches in the world!!!

and after the rides, there were some elephant shows...

us with the baby elephant... somehow i jus like elephants.... my fav cartoon would be dumbo.... can relate to the big flappy ears?!?!

krabi day 2 - island hopping

day 2 was for island hopping around the HONG island... given that it's less crowded and less touristy, it feels like a private jet bringing us ard....
view from the jet boat...

as usual, the star jump pix at beaches is a must....
i like this shot a lot...

krabi day 2 - rock climbing

our first activity for the trip was rock climbing... making our way to the jetty to take the long tail boat to railay beach for rock climbing... here's our "tour guide" - the rock climbing expert.... he's the one carrying all our equipment as well.... see the guy loaded with so many bags... that's him with the full equipment for the 5 "participants".....

here's our mode of transport to railay beach...

the long tail of the boat..... that's how it got its name.....

at railay beach... we must make our way thru the slippery, muddy beach cos it's low tide when we arrive....

finally it's the start of the activity... listening attentively to instructions....gin looks confused though....
mi posing with the guide.....
my turn to climb....

slowly making my way up.....



finally at the TOPPPPPP!!!!! it was hard work!!!!

slowly abseiling down..... this is the most relax and enjoyable part.....

exhausated after the climb... i conquered three 10m wall and one 20m wall....=)

n besides the photos and the aching muscles, here's wat we've got as "souvenirs" from the rock-climbing.... ouch ouch!!

after an exhausting day of being "spider women", it's time to chill and relax.... we went to this mexican pub for the WORLD CUP FINALS - holland vs spain....
n my prediction was right once again!!!! SPAIN won.... n i won this shirt from "guessing the winning team" lucky draw from the pub.... wohoooo!!!!
see the before and after.... the whole big group of holland fans in the pub.... see the same pix below after the match ended....


and this marks the end of our long day...

Krabi - 10 July 2010 to 14 july 2010

after 9 months of hard work, it's finally my turn to go on leave.... was looking forward to a break which i desperately need.... so here's some photos of the trip....

entering the boarding gates with slpy eyes!!! the flight's at 640AM... so woke up at 4plus with barely 2 hours of slp.....cant wait to slp on the plane...

our tiger flight to krabi.... i like this pix!!

on our way to the hotel....

presenting PAKASAI.... our hotel for the 4 nights.....

the lobby while waiting for check-in....

our hotel room with the kinkish shower facilities.... if u look carefully, u will realise there is no door to the washroom... see the translucent shower on the top left side of the pix... that's the shower... n dunno whether they are cutting cost or wat, the shower and toilet shares 1 door!!! so either u shower or u use toilet.... funnie design right??? and check out the outdoor bathtub in the pix below....


the sceneries along ao nang beach.....

ageing

ageing.... growing up.... do u actually feel more as u age... or is it vice versa.... sometimes i realli wonder if i am really emotionally detached... as i alwaz tot i m... and that's wat some of my frens tell mi.... was watching a korean drama over the weekend and saw how filled with emotions the characters are.... it might be a show.... but in reality, i believe there are ppl who are realli like that.... ppl who do feel deeply for things, for the people ard them, for watever that's happening ard them.... but somehow i feel that i've stopped having such emotions..... i m trying to recall when's the last time i realli feel such strongly..... i m not saying i dun feel happie or sad etc.... but somehow, my emotions are not so strong..... perhaps i m realli "cold-blooded"?? i realli dunno... or mebbe it's jus age... as u age, u see more things.... and probably that's the reason why u get immune to stories ppl tell u, stories that's happening in ur life.... it's sad.... a sad realisation that i dun feel animore.... i complain when i have to work long hours.... but when i can knock off early, i suddenli feel lost..... yup, i can alwaz hang out with frens, go shopping, go for early dinner and catch a movie.... but somehow, it's jus processes that i m going thru... it feels very different from memories... memories that i will hold on to.... experiences that i will remember.... it seems like those good old days in school which will have memories and experiences for mi to hold on to..... the last nice memory that i have was probably the phuket trip... thanks for the happy memories... and sorrie......
