Following a calm first day consisting of absolutely nothing but walking to the beach, sleeping on the beach and walking back, day two was somewhat more adventurous.
Making friends with two Israeli guys turned out to be a huge success when we found they had two mopeds and a day to spend with us. We popped helmets on, and set off. Waterfall explorations and a secluded white sand beach completed it, along with the classic mango shakes which were great! We also saw elephants in a sanctuary, and swurved past some baboons who were sat in the road.
Finding a classic 7 11 food store, which wasn't hard as they're at every other step, we treated ourselves to a special treat; frosties for breakfast!! We enjoyed these thoroughly, setting us up for the day :) we have also enjoyed our first bit of chocolate - maltesers, first ice cream- magnums, and Mair ate a fresh fish for dinner, which was caught previously that day. Rachel was fairly disgusted, and didn't try any, especially considering the eye ball was still there!!!
Our relaxation continued, as we enjoyed a relaxed day on a boat... Alas a lot bigger than the one we travelled on in Bangkok. We got to know some of the other people from our hostel, sunbathed lots, and went snorkelling, which was an incredible experience.
The sea was quite deep, but so clear we could see all the way to the bottom even without a snorkel. Only after we'd made our way into the water, did the Thai men, chuck food into the water right by us, resulting in all the fish swimming around us! We both got nipped, and decided it was time to get out. We did however get a great photo, so the food wasn't so bad in the end.
Following a relaxed dinner of more incredible Thai cuisine, we are now pleasantly stuffed and ready for bed, over and out for now!
