Hong Island

Yesterday we went to Hong Island off the coast of Ao Nang which is 3km from where we are staying in some cool bungalows.  We went snorkelling in the nice warm water and there were fish there which you could feed with bread and they bit your fingers which was cool.  There were lots of jellyfish there which didn't sting, just tickled a bit and got annoying.  One got my lip good and it was hurting for the rest of the day.  When me and Sam climbed up the rocks we found this little pool.  It was cool, but the rocks were really sharp.  You could jump off them.

We got there in a long boat which is a canoe with car motor with a propeller stuck on the back of it!  It makes a loud noise.  I got cut on my thumb off the rocks which made me not able to go swimming.

On the beach there were lots of people with no tops on (girls) which was annoying cos you go to the beach for a nice day out and they're there.  It started to rain on the trip back to Ao Nang and when it rains in Thailand it really rains.  We were glad to get home for a shower and some ovaltine (Milo).  I got to wear my merina top (finally).
Lots of love

Hi Mickey here, I've just done a 100km ride and now my legs feel like jelly.  I saw about 5 dead snakes on the trip but the yuckiest thing I saw was a dead dog's ball bag!!  The scariest thing was knowing that they have bird eating spiders here so lucky i'm not a bird.  This place is cool because because of the scenery we saw a big hill that looked like God's thumb from the Holes movie.  Sam said it looked like something else of God's, but mum wouldn't let me write that.
