Our last days in Koh Lipe were great; Matt and Josh completed their open-water diving course and we brought in the New Year at the Karma Bar with friends that we met on the island. We arrived back in Ton Sai Bay on January 4 to hugs and smiles; knowing people here almost makes it feel like home.
We went kayaking for a day around the limestone rocks in Krabi; there are so many caves and tiny beaches around the rocks. In the middle of the day it just started pouring so we pulled in to a beach and just swam in the warm water as the rain poured down. After a few minutes the rain stopped and it was sunny skies again.
We chartered a fishing boat the next day, which meant waking up at 5am, taking a long-tail boat to Ao Nang and heading out to the Chicken Islands and Phi Phi returning around 7pm the same day. The guys on the boat didn’t speak much English but brought us out fresh fruit, drinks and thai food and took care of everything. We were trolling for barracuda and dorado but Josh was the only one to catch a fish… or bait :). When we returned to Ton Sai we all had sea legs. At dinner it felt like the whole restaurant was rocking back and forth.
We had to do a visa run yesterday; taking a minibus to the Malaysia border and then coming back to Krabi. We drove to Satun, walked over the Malaysia border, filled out a form, walked back into Thailand and filled out another form. We now have another 30 day visa for Thailand. Our next border run will be to Burma before we head to the Gulf of Thailand.
Today we are just lounging at the beach and taking it easy. Waking up early the past couple of mornings has been tough :).

your just some freaky f*ckers aren't you two? Wait... I already knew that. Bobby made me come lurk you out you f*cking biotches... I wouldn't do it on my own accord. Ok I would have, But I forgot to, and he reminded me to. Anyhow nice to see your doing well. From the pictures you two could be models (well, hand models at best).
Cheers,
