Med våra nya dyk-certifikat i handen så letade vi upp en dykfirma som kunde ta med oss på en utfärd. Mosquito Divers övertalade oss att göra ett vrakdyk. Det var lite läskigt och jag var mycket nervös innan, men dyket visade sig vara fantastiskt. Vi hann med två rev-dyk också på samma tur.
_________________________________________________________

With our new diving certificates in our hands we headed out to search for a diving tour. We found Mosquito Divers, who recomended a wreck dive tour. It was a little scary at first, but eventually it was an amazing dive. We did two reef dives as well in the same tour.

Phi Phi-öarna var ganska annorlunda om man jämförde med Koh Lanta. Här var det mer party och mindre lugn och ro. Dessutom märktes det mer av tsunamin här fortfarande. Lite läskigt.
_________________________________________________________

Phi phi islands were pretty different from Koh Lanta. Here it was more party and less peace and quite. And the damage caused by the tsunami were still visible in many places. A little creepy.

Sista dagen i norra Thailand, och utflykten gick via Udon Thani vidare till Nong Khai. På vägen dit stannade vi vid en silkesmarknad och shoppade sjalar och andra silkesvaror. Vi var också till ett tempel, med stenstatyer, men det är nästkommande sidor.

Vi åt lunch på en restaurang, där mestadels transvestiter serverade, och vi hade utsikt över Mekongfloden och Laos. Sen åkte vi tillbaks till Pang Khon för att fira kungens födelsedag med en picknick.
__________________________________________________________

Last day in northern Thailand, and the day trip went via Udon Thani to Nong Khai. We stayed at a silk market on the way there and shopped shawls and other silk stuff. We also went to a temple with stone statues, but that is on the next pages.

We had lunch at a restaurant, where most of the waitors were transvestits, and we had a view over the Mekong river and Laos. After that we went back to Pang Khon to celebrate the kings birthday with a picnic.
