Well here it is, the last full day of my dream vacation! None of it has disappointed! Today started early with breakfast and Mo meeting us for the most wonderful day to call our last. It started at 8am and a drive to Ao Phang Nga National Park where we boarded a long boat for a cruise around the bay and huge rock formations and caves. We watched 2 little monkeys sunning on the rocks as we cruised past. This place is so amazingly cool. Deep into the rock formations and caves we then got aboard a canoe where they took us into caves and for a closer look at the huge rocks etc. the water was brilliant green blue with stalagmites hanging from the rocks. Later on, we stopped at a private beach for swimming and shell seeking. It was so beautiful. Then we entered a cave by boat and went ashore to walk through the cave to see such interesting rock formations. You could hear the bats overhead squealing. Amazing views of the bay from inside the cave. Then back into the tour bus to a lookout restaurant way above the bay for a fantastic lunch and pics. Back to the hotel for afternoon massages at the spa. Free cocktails at the Alto restaurant and more free drinks at the firefly restaurant. Finished the day with appies and more drinks at Brenda and Garnets pool. Final packing done and I guess ready for a marathon of flights tomorrow. Omg it will be a day. Starting at 1040am! Phuket to Bangkok, Bangkok to Taipei, Taipei to Vancouver, Vancouver to Calgary. Land in Calgary at 1030pm same day. Lay overs in each city with a total of 18 hours of fly time. Might be an ordeal and not an adventure. LOL!!!!! Next note will be from home. Dec 11. Thanks for following another journey of mine.
