So got to Krabi late in the evening around 9 or 10 pm and
must say wasn’t too impressed with the town as lot of young backpackers getting
shit faced drunk!!!! Got a room in this slightly more expensive guest house
Mansion (about $12 CAD) than usually stay but everything was full and wtf for
one night!!! The peep working at the guesthouse were really assholes as had no
time to help or give info!
Spent one night and early the next morning went down to
catch a bus to the ferry in Ao Nang to go to
Tonsai and Railay a more upscale beach area close by to Tonsai!
Most peep go to Tonsai to
rock climb which is internationally renown for the cliffs!
Don’t do rock climbing tho have tried so hung around Tonsai
for about a week just chilling, smoking and hanging out with the cool peep!
There were a lot of cheap guest houses so found a cheap
place in the second row of guesthouses away from the busier beach area!
A person could find a few reasonable priced eating places
around Tonsai! My daily routine was to wake up around 10 or 11 am and go down
to get a Protien shake and / or muslei with yoghurt and fruit! Then head to
this coffee hut where I got to know the owner as he would make me an awesome
chai tea which I’d do a couple times a day cuz got kinda addicted to it!
Then would wander over to one of the many establishments
with a hammock to chill and smoke some weed! One of the bars had a bong which
I’d use to smoke up tho never had a beer! I’d usually hang out in one hammock
or another most of day until it was time to eat or go back to my room!
Also got to know the local tattoo artist who would call me
in to his shop when ever I walk by to have a hit off his bong! But shit found
that he’d mix weed and tobacco so the first time I did a big hit and almost
passed out cuz dislike tobacco as get a massive headache! When was at Tonsai one of
the locals gave me a ½ meter long bamboo which he made a crude bong but it fell
apart when taking it home in my bag so when got home made it into a more
usable bong and was a good souvenir from my trip there!
I also walked over the back way thru the jungle to the next
beach Railay beach which was more upscale as went to use the ATM to get some cash! Also for a
bite to eat at a different hang out! But didn’t really care for the vibes in Railay as
it seemed to be more for the tour travellers!
Most of the peep who came to Tonsai would rock climb
everyday but I wasn’t that big into it! Hell Tomsai reminded me of the time went
to Utilla island (off the east coast of Honduras) a big diving island which
specialized in peep getting cheap diving certification http://www.aboututila.com/ Went there with a Dutch friend where we stayed for a week at a dive shop to
just party and hang out and didn’t do any diving!
Some peep also rented boats or kayaks in Tonsai to go to surrounding
islands to hang out for the day however I couldn’t be bother as I was strictly
at Tonsai to hang out and chill before heading back to Bangkok to catch my
flight home!
Have a check of my humble pictures with my new waterproof
camera that bought duty free at Club Changi after losing my old camera in a
river!

So when the time came to leave Tonsai caught the ferry back
to Ao Nang by 3 pm to catch an overnight bus
to Bangkok! Where I stayed for a night at the Lamphu House and then got bounced
as full so moved to a cheap place around the corner for couple nights as met
some chill guys to smoke and hang out! Then moved to the Plai Garden Guesthouse
close to the airport as my flight to Tokyo and home left at 810 am so could use
free shuttle to airport!
So that ended my trip to SE
Asia which will probably be the last time I will visit the mainland countries of SE
Asia as lost it’s adventure as too many high priced tourists and enjoyment!
