Southern Thailand... continued...

After exploring the beauty of the sand, water and people... we decided to find the rock climbing area! The beaches of Railei were supposed to have deep water solo climbing, which meant that you could climb without ropes... but if you fell, you'd fall into water...

We didn't find any cool place to do that, but Albert met some guys from Singapore who are actual members of their school's climbing team... they instantly became Albert's new best friends!! That meant that Coco and I could explore the less active things to do on the island... like SHOPPING! The shopping is so cheap... I've already collected things to bring back to home...

The next day, our neighbors who were staying in the bungalow next to ours found out about a place called the Lagoon... which took a hike to get to, but was supposed to be dreamy. So we all agreed to go and it was the work out of my life! Up through the jungle, down red rock and mud, through sticks and leaves and gigantic trees (some points were really slippery)... we finally arrived, and were very disappointed. ;( The Lagoon had water that was kinda green... kinda dirty... and kindy scary... LOL But then we continued to walk around it and we found a corner of it that gave a completely different feel. After exploring and taking tons of pictures, we left and continued back to the shore. That night we went straight to sleep! We were all exhausted...
