Krabi - Wally and Yakki Arrive

think of krabi and you'll picture the bright sun, the white sand and the clear blue sea. with that sort of expectations, our anticipation soared with our tiger airways plane on that early saturday morning.

upon touching down at krabi airport, we took a 600 baht taxi drive to aonang cliff beach resort where we would set up base. the 20 odd minutes drive was marked by yakki's moans about the awesomeness of krabi's geography. cliffs and cliffs and cliffs. he intended to shoot them during sunrise and sunset, hoping to capture the warm infant or dying sunlight piercing between the wispy clouds and the majestic cliffs.

speaking of cliffs, yakki had scaled part of everest a few years back.

"you should try it some day. climbing mountain rocks."

no thanks man. i don't see a point.

"no, seriously. climbing a mountain triumphs having sex."

ok, mountain or sex? give up one. forever.

silence. case closed.

aonang cliff beach resort was nice. the usual resort that looks and feels like a resort. you know how they welcome you with a little mocktail drink and a warm towel when you arrive at the lobby. yeah, that sort of resort.

anyway, we caught up with our good ol' friend daniels who had arrived at ao nang a day earlier. we counted on him to cut short our exploration time by recce-ing the area beforehand.

"there's not much around here. i think we should head to krabi town to have a look."

then, our holiday adventure began..
