Beautiful sea creaturessssss

So on next day morning, headed up to meeting point 

and thought we may see YCH's soon-to-be-frens at that time

When the truth was revealed O.O Ta daaaaaa they were the family-of-threes from China hahahaha

We've totally forgotten the possibilities of them to be the 3 >.<

So ok it's still fine we're joined by 5 others from China, another 2 were husband wife

Throughout the journey, they're friendly and can be surprisingly excited haha

Like the mum from family of threes would come up from snorkeling and shared with us what she had seen etc etc

Kesian the wife of the couples - had sea sickness throughout the snorkeling trip making her only able to hang onto the 救生圈 tied to the boat while snorkeling

This trip despite being cheaper than the commercialized snorkeling trip in Phuket + we're out on the long boat, not comparable to the speedboat

But it's much nicer, more convenient and the service was not any lousier than the speedboat 1

The guide was quite helpful helping us carry stuff up and down the boat, or fix the snorkeling gear for us etc

Lunch and fruit were also provided as usual

The package included 5 island among which we're able to snorkel in 4 of them

The only 1 that we're not snorkeling on is an island made up by natural stone (i'd call them as black stone)

Which looks extremely beautiful and cool haha especially those stones immersed in water looks slippery black while the others on top looks grey-ish black

They said if u've successfully stacked up 12 stones in a tower, u'll get better luck

*this was not ours, we've only got 6 or 7th stones haha*

Reminded me of primary school's drawing on mountain haha

Smaller boat, less people, more security lucky I've brought my cam =D

Spotted huge varieties of fishes while snorkeling

Don noe their name, so i've stole some pic from google >.<

There are more but I have no idea how to search for them haha like rainbow color fish with green lips, 海胆,sea cucumber and of coz colorful coral, some of them even looks like purple color broccoli etc etc

arghhh the sea of beauty, too bad there's no waterproof casing for DSLR 

We're sent back to beach in front of hotel despite we got on boat in morning on the sunset beach *nice service as i've said*

Hence we're like getting free tour around the island hahha

Saw kids with self made boat going snorkeling at water level deeper than their height (Y) Seriously surprised and impressed

Also, Koh Lipe is also full with healthy beautiful dogs

But some are like random mix breed, saw several 腊肠狗 body but the head size looks like normal 菜狗

Met the only little husky on the island, ARGHHH so cute and like most dogs it licks my foot and it scared YCH away hahahaha It's toooooooo adorable =D

Besides, the resort are also filled with beautiful flowerssssss, too many of them haha

Thai Fruit Pancake for tea time

The honey lemon was nice as starter - perfect combination of sour + sweet taste

while the banana nutella suits to put an end to tea time - the banana was quite heated up, hence leave some time for it to cool down + the sweet sticky nutella give a little sense of satisfaction to partial hungry stomach

The dinner was most luxurious meal for the whole trip, cost us 890TB as we ordered a whole fish cooked in KENG SOM (don care about spelling), fried squid and vege

The keng som cooking was intro by YCH, it's thai cooking style and much more spicy than usual spicy-sour fish

The spice covered up the sour taste most of the time and i was spiked when i accidentally eaten it together with salted fish >.<

Next morning (the last day) woke up extremely early for sunrise shot!! But I was a little late haha

This was 550am (the sunrise was kinda very much earlier here) haha

The last day of most trip I've been to had similar pattern, taking several different types of transportation vehicle from a place to another, taking all day long @.@

It begins from 9am the Koh Lipe via bot to jetty, van back to Hatyai, then baru van all the way to Penang

Weeeeeee too boring on the van haha
