Thailand Day 3

We had a brand new adventure in Phuket again. We arrived at Phang Nga Bay where we were loaded onto a long boat and taken around to different islands in the area to enjoy different types of activities. What a beautiful place that we're enjoying here.






We were taken to Tum Tulu to have a guide take us to some caves by way of sea kayak. Very beautiful to say the least.








We were taken to James Bond Island where the 1974 Golden Gun was filmed. Pretty cool! We could hear bats in the caves and the boys had a great time exploring the many different areas of the cave. Beautiful!




We stopped at a floating fisherman's village "Koh Pan-yi" to eat lunch. It is built right along the side of an island. It was fabulous. The served quite a lot of varieties of food. All quite delicious including the squid and octopus. One dish was too spicy for us to try more than one bite. We even tried the fried chicken that looked to be very spicy (red stuff all over it), but surprisingly not at all. Good stuff! We were then allowed to walk around inside the village. There are quite a places to eat, buy clothing and jewelry. Very neat to see.



The last stop of our trip was to what they call here "Monkey Cave" Suwankuha Temple. Here there were monkeys all over the place. Fun to be able to be this up close and personal with the monkeys. Inside the temple were shrines and a monk watching everything going on. There were so many bats that we saw and heard in the caves. What a great day!
