Words cannot describe how unreal the full moon party in Thailand was! You just have to see it for yourself. Quite a nice send off as we leave Thailand that following morning!
It was a long uncomfortable journey which took us all day and into the night. We arrived in Penang Malaysia starving sore and exhausted. I should add we are still covered in body paint from the party the night before and getting very strange looks. With a goodnights sleep an a very long shower we were off to explore the city. One day was all we needed before we yearned for our beach bungalow again! So we decided to head for the oasis of the Perhentian islands. (even after being warned they were closed due to monsoon season) Another long uncomfortable bus ride followed by the scarest boat ride of our life and we arrived once again in paradise. The islands are magnificent and due to te fact it's "monsoon" season there are few people and very cheap prices. It hasn't rained once since we arrived 2 nights ago. We had fresh fish BBQ on the beach for dinner with the waves literally at our feet.
Today we went snorkeling around the islands and it was amazing. Tons of fish and huge turtles completely surrounding us. Unfortunately no luck sighting any sharks at shark point, but maybe that was for the best:) We also didn't see any sting rays which are prominent around these islands. Still an incredible day. Now a wee bit sunburnt, we look forward to having a couple drinks on the beach and watching the sunset! Can't wait to see what tomorrow holds!
