So the internet has been pretty bad in the hostels over the past 10 days, hence the back log of blogs; that and when the sun is out and the beach is calling, its hard to get motivated to write!
Safe to say its been a relaxing ten days with nights our partying and lazy days spent on the beach. After our 'billionth' sleeper train we find ourselves heading to our first island Koh Pang Yang.
The island is famous for its Full moon parties, which is exactly what we headed to. We booked three nights here in a set of beach bungalows around the corner from Haad Rin beach.
After topping up the tan the full moon finally arrived, we got our UV rave gear in check and painted ourselves head to toe in fluorescent paint. There were thousands of people on the beach drinking buckets, skipping in fire and dancing the night away.
Our first point of call was getting a few buckets down us as we explored the music stands and watched cocky tourists get burnt on the flamed skipping ropes...
...things get a bit hazy after this. I know we had some food, danced on many stages, found a group of people from Finsbury Park, had a few more buckets, fell off a stage, ate a doughnut, found a UV hat, got chatted up by a gay man and called father christmas!
Next thing I know the sun is starting to rise and we leave to get one last kebab and head back to our bungalow to rest our feet! We slept through till the afternoon and ventured out for food and to sun bathe the alcohol out.
Not a lot happened the day before and after the full moon party. We sunbathed and swam in the sea mostly. A very chilled island when your not off your nut at somesort of rave.
Next stop is the turtle island of Koh Tao.
