Honeymoon in Krabi - Day 4

It was already Day 4. Sob sob. Anyway for Day 4, we booked the 4 Island Tour. This half day tour covers the 4 famous island in Krabi i.e Poda Island, Chicken Island, Tup Island and Phra Nang cave. We departed at 830AM from hotel and again took the speed boat from Ao Nang pier. Our boat stop by Railey beach to take more passenger, which was mostly the mat sallehs

Wherethehell is Tup Island?
Our first stop was Tup Island, which was about 45 mins by speed boat from the pier. Tup Island is a very nice beach with sand banks that connects 3 islands. At Tup Island, we lepak for an hour, mandi dan berenang bersama tiger fish and main pasir di tepi pantai :)

Selepas itu, the boat left Tup Island to go to Chicken Island. From the photo below you can understand why the island is called Chicken Island. Rupa batu di situ macam kepala chicken kan :). At Chicken Island ni ada batu je so there was no place for us to stop so kami pass by saje. Tetapi kami berhenti seketika di satu tempat berdekatan Chicken Island to do open sea snorkeling. Hurrah! I loike!

It was near to the lunch time so we headed to Poda Island. Poda Island ni besar, and this was where we had our picnic lunch. Since the tour guide didnt look like muslim, we converted our mode to vegeterian and only ate the veggies and fruits. Hubby loves the pineapple, sedap katanyer.

In Poda Island kami berhenti lama sikit so apa lagi, bergambar sakan lah kan kitaorang :D

This photo was taken by a tour guide from bot sebelah. He is a very nice person and claim himself as Muslim. Hubby layan lah die borak kan and he starts to cerita pasal kisah hidup die and keluarkan gambar anak beranak die to show to us. Die pon ada bagi contact number, in case we or any friend ada nak cari Muslim tour guide in Krabi. Die pon cerita yang all passanger in his boat are Malaysians. Aha, memang pon, kitaorang ada lah terserempak dengan this bunch of Malaysian :D
After Poda Island was the last stop i.e Phra Nang cave. In here, ada cave where they perform their religious routine, as can be seen from photo below. Dekat-dekat situ pon ada locals jual jagung, pineapple, souveniers or even baju :D
At Phra Nang, I was already tired and sunburnt so I lepak je kat tepi beach while watching hubby mandi-manda.
For passanger from Railey beach, this was their last pit stop as they can walk back to Railey beach from here. For us, kami take the boat to Ao Nang pier after spending 1 hour in Phra Nang cave/area. Kami sampai di pier at around 2PM. Penat dan hitam tapi masih bertenaga lagi untuk berjalan yeah :D

So petang tu at 4PM, we went to jalan-jalan at Krabi town naik kereta hotel. The driver tu ada berhenti at this place yang I lupe nama die ape, and kat sini kitaorang amik gambar-gambar mengarut, as seen below hihi.

After that, the driver drove us to Thai Market, this one is bigger than the one in Ao Nang. It was like a pasar malam which was divided into two area i.e food area and other than food area. I sempat beli 3 spagetti for only 100 Baht. Okay lah, nice and I like it so much. At the food area, we saw many Muslims shops and the food pon nampak familiar like ayam goreng, nasi ayam and nasi minyak. Hubby bought ayam goreng and that nasi minyak. The kakak tempat kami beli nasi tu was actually a Malay. She speaks fluent Malay, so memang rasa comfortable lah masa beli nasi tu tadi :).
Selepas itu, kami told the driver we wanted to go to money changer. He brought us to Tesco haha. Aiyor kat sini pon ada Tesco. Tapi kitorang tak lama kat Tesco, 10 minutes je camtu. I told hubby I want to go to place other than Tesco. So after that kami balik and the driver drove us to the money changer at Ao Nang beach.
Well, at that time we were quite tired so tak de jalan-jalan sangat after that. Bile dah dapat tukar duit, we headed home and retire for the day.
On Day 5, kami packed and was sedih to go. We had our breakfast and then lepak tengok movie at Star World sebelum bertolak at 10AM from the hotel. As we arrived Krabi Airport, we were told that our flight was delayed to 2PM. So what to do, tunggu je lah kat airport tu kan. Nasib baik ada my baby Macbook. So kitaorang tengok-tengok gambar sambil mengisi masa lapang. We performed our prayers before departed to KL. Krabi Airport ni ada prayers room, so no problem lah nak perform prayers.
We safely arrived at LCCT at around 6PM Malaysian time. Glad to be home but at the same time, has already missed Krabi. Good bye Krabi! It was surely a memorable one :)
