"Phi Phi.. don't you mean Pee Pee?.."





    Hello from the land of Thai! This last weekend we had the opportunity to leave our sweet home Chiang Rai and travel down south to Phuket and the Phi Phi islands!
 It was honestly too much fun and sometimes I feel guilty by how much of a blast it's been over here. We really do live the motto work hard and play hard... and I'm going to be so sad when the day comes I have to head back to America.. back to real life.



Love this girl 

Down South we had lots of adventures! The Phi Phi Islands were so unbelievably cool! They are a cluster of islands that you are unable to fly to but have to get to by boat. Once on the islands there are no cars and motorbikes or even roads! It looked like this jungle town with hostels up in the trees..

The water was perfectly clear and warm.. it was honestly like no place I have ever been in my life!


It was my dream place! There were monkeys just walking the streets as pets



We went Scuba diving! I am officially obsessed and getting certified has been moved to the top of my list of things to do!

Phi Phi Islands so fun!

Then we were off to Phuket!  
We took the boat back early in the morning and when we got there we all rented scooters to ride around.

We took the scooters and rode up to see the Big Buddha  up this mountain riding through these green jungle hills





After seeing the seeing the big Buddha we all paired up on the motor bikes to head over to see a lookout sunset. I was with Jordan and we ended up getting a little lost from the group. We are the only two people in the group that haven't purchased cell phones so we were probably a bad combo.. we ended up having our own adventure.







The next morning half of our group left on an early flight and half of us wanted to stay one more day at the beach. Taylee and I were waiting to meet up with the other girls and decided to be brave and go grab Thai lunch by ourselves.. BAD IDEA we ended up with a table of food like this...



  
We were so tired by the time we got home.. never been so excited to see those rock hard mattresses we sleep on!
