I'm still in Kho Phi Phi and am getting a little bit of the island fever again. The guys are still staying here and I guess I had my chance to leave tomorrow and leave the group but I will stay one more night just for the hell of it and see how my travel goes.
We woke up late and had lunch after 12:30 and then went back to the room to get our beach gear. After much waiting and procrastination, we finally got everything ready and headed to the viewpoint. That's another thing that's starting to bother me, is the constant waiting for everybody else. I guess I also need to remember to relax and take it easy as well. Oh well.

After a tiring climb up to the viewpoint, we came upon a nice sunny view of the two bays below. After laying around for a little bit and looking around, I chatted with a guy with a red chest and belly, burnt by the sun. His name was Oyvind and he was pretty friendly and I found out that he's from Norway - where I'm headed next! He will be in Oslo in mid-July and I'm hoping to meet up with him at that time.
We continued our way down after that and reached the beach after walking through the forest. Michael and I went snorkeling for a while, while Dirk and Grant sat on the beach. They're not too active. Dirk left to see Khan and we headed back to our side of the island after a while. I met up with Oyvid again at the Jordon's Irish Bar and we chatteded for a long while before heading home.
