For our final day in Ko Phi Phi we had a lazy day of sitting on the beach reading a book and then taking a Thai cooking course. Our teacher was a very cute little Thai woman who thought Tom was a giant because he was the first person to hit his head on the hood above the stove. She also thought I was pregnant because I kept adding extra sugar to all the dishes (really it was to mask the fish oil.) I tried not to take it personally, the tiny little Thai chef ladies at least said I was a beautiful pregnant woman.
After six great days in the island paradise, we're on our way up to Bangkok. This morning we took the ferry from Ko Phi Phi to Phuket, (much nicer this direction on a sunny day than it was going to the island the rain.) Not much to say about Phuket, so far I've noticed nothing but some awful smelling food stands, a few dive shops, many questionable "massage" parlors, and most comically, at least a dozen karaoke booths and clubs.
Given that it's raining, our plan this afternoon is to go to the movie theater and watch the only film showing in English in town, the Mummy 3!!! (For anyone who missed the preview for this during The Dark Knight, it definitely could be Brendan Fraser's best work.) Thankfully, we are on an 8am flight to Bangkok tomorrow morning :-)
