Term Break 1: Krabi

On my first term break, I traveled down to Krabi in Southern Thailand.  From Krabi, I made trips to Koh Phi Phi Don and Railay.  Here are some pictures I took on my trip.

View from the Viewpoint on Koh Phi Phi Don.  Well worth the steep, sweaty hike from the main village.
Sailboat off the edge of Koh Phi Phi Don.
My private bungalow on Koh Phi Phi Don.


Beautiful Koh Phi Phi Don in the Andaman Sea.



Going for a swim off Koh Phi Phi.

Koh Phi Phi:  beautiful and ancient.  Check out this nearly perfect fossil I found of a dinosaur.

Ridiculous water and preposterous cliffs:  Koh Phi Phi Leh.
The gorgeous Koh Phi Phi Leh.


My brush with coral.  My foot is still pretty chewed up from it.  Worth it.

Coming in to Maya Bay, Koh Phi Phi Leh.
Maya Bay, Kho Phi Phi Leh.  This spot was used for the majority of the filming of the 2001 movie, The Beach.

Proof that I was there.  Maya Bay, Koh Phi Phi Leh.

Monkey Beach.  You hear a name like that, you just go.
See what I mean?  That dude loves bananas.  Monkey Beach.

Absurd limestone cliffs of Railay.
Breathtaking Railay.
This is the ugly side of Railay.  Seriously.

I hope you enjoyed my pictures.  If so, let me know.  Also, if you are interested in going to Koh Phi Phi or Railay, talk to me.  I am open to going again.  Seriously, everyone should go here.  Four days was not nearly long enough.
