Ko Phi Phi Finally

Last weekend we went to Phuket to meet with Flavio and Roberta. We are long time friends from Vancouver and now they live in San Francisco... It was great to see them again and it could not be a better scenario. Ko Phi Phi - Thailand. I have been dreaming of visiting this island since I first came to Asia in 2005. It raised a lot of expectations and they were all met.

Phi Phi is sure one of the most amazing places I have ever been to. For this reason I could not post less pictures. I also figured most people come to my blog to see them anyway so why not post a few since I am having such a hard time trying to decide what to post.



We flew to Phuket where we hung out at Kata Beach, known as one of the most beautiful in the Island. I went surfing while we waited for Flavio and Roberta. The next day we took a ferry from Rassada pier and arrived in Phi Phi. The ferry ride was cool and Phi Phi Don (the main island) is beautifull but a bit dirty. Lots of garbage on the beach and some rubble still there we assume from the tsunami. That night we organized a boat trip for the next morning for PhiPhi Ley, and that is the one to see and where "the beach" was filmed...





what an incredible place. We took the boat at 7:30am and all the group tours leave at 9am. This was the best thing we could have done. We arrived at the island and we were the only people there. It was one of those moments of joy in life where you feel fortunate and lucky to be someone that can enjoy this. It is very hard to describe it and I wish I could put into words better.




Today I feel very happy that life has presented itself to me in the way it did... I was awarded with everything I need... family, love and friends... =)

Unfortunatelly we did not have more than a day in Phi Phi but for sure we are going back. Rock climbing looked fantastic and Pri and Tate have to come visit to see. It's unbelievable the rock formations above the blue waters.



On the way back we stayed in Kata one more night and me and Flavio went surfing... fun stuff.

On the to visit list we still have to go to James Bond Island ... well next time ! Who is coming next ?

Now to some more pics...
