Thailand: The Arrival

The plane arrived in Bangkok after a 20 hour flight. An expensive taxi ride got me to a bus station where I spent another 11 hours sitting on the way to Krabi. It wasn't so bad though. I slept well enough and the jet lag did not seem to affect me very much at all. Upon arrival in Krabi me and 11 people got in the bed of a truck with a little awning, crammed to the knees and elbows. After an hour of crazy driving, we arrive in Au Nong (sp). A longtail boat took me over to Ton Sai where I immediately got a bungalow, some dinner, and finally the drones of the previous travel days took there toll. I slept like a baby after a  Nyquil laced milk bottle.
