Beach time!

After a long day of travel (1 hour taxi, 1.5 hour plane, 1 hour taxi, 1.5 hour boat), we are safe and sound in Phi Phi Don. Our little bungalow is nice and comfortable. The island is pretty great: cheap drinks, cheap food, laid-back atmosphere...the antidote to Bangkok which was not our favorite city experience (fine but a little frazzling).

One highlight is the abundance of fruit smoothie stands around the island that sell amazing drinks for about $2. Watermelon, pineapple/strawberry, coconut, and chocolate (Milo) were all amazing. I think we'll work our way through their offerings in the next two days.

The street food is delicious and cheap. Our appetizer last night was a kebab of chicken, pineapple, onion, and pepper slathered in a sweet chili sauce. More skewers of amazing things await us today. Dinner was about $9 including smoothies. We had some pad kee something dishes that were predictably awesome.

Pictures to come soon. We have free wireless in our little cabana.

Off to the beach!
