Krabi / Ao Nang / Railay

February 9th, 2012

Finally receiving payment from the University, Mel and I decided to head off on an adventure. We looked up airline tickets and decided since we may be able to use the tickets we bought to Krabi for May that we would head there. Many people suggested going to Railay Beach so off we went.

We left on a Saturday around 6pm and arrived at around 7pm in Krabi. We hopped on the bus to Ao Nang and about 45 minutes later arrived for a mere 150 baht. I had looked up 2 places to stay that had great reviews on TripAdvisor. The first one was full. The second one we could not find. Searching we went. Read the full post…

Thailand vs. Australia — Road to Brazil 2014

November 20th, 2011

 

 

Last week on Tuesday we went to one of Thailand’s World Cup qualifying matches. Some friends of our’s had posted that they had tickets and we thought it would be fun to go as well.

 

Mel and I picked up our tickets a the week before, but the section that our friends were in had already been sold out so we had to buy the 300 baht version instead of 200. Still a pretty good price. Our friend Diane also wanted to go, so we picked up a ticket for her as well.

Phuket One Day Hat Tournament

November 1st, 2011

Last year Mel and I went to Phuket for a one day ultimate frisbee hat tournament(see post here)

This year we stayed at Naithon Beach in a very nice(for 800 baht) hotel.

The tournament was only a one day hat so we spent all of Saturday running through the sand..on the beach…in the nice warm air. That is my way of rubbing it in. Sorry, I have to do it. Some days we pay dearly for these weekends by living in Bangkok, so I take them when I can. You will read soon about how terrible it can be here too, but first, back to how awesome it can be.
