Sawadeekap Krabi ~ Birthday Buddy Trip 2014

Hoolla all...its celebration time, yeayyyy...Lets visit Krabi...Sawadeekap means "Hello or Welcome".

A short trip I guess sebab spending 4 days & 3 nights in Krabi rasa terSANGATlah cepat masa berlalu, huhu...probably because of the 4th day, our flight at 0815 hours...so kena keluar awal ke Krabi Airport...

Depart from LCCT on the 10th of January, early flight @0715 hours.  Arrival at Krabi Airport @0745 hours local time...Krabi time is 1 hour behind Malaysia time.

Upon arrival in Krabi Airport before Immigration check you must fill-up the arrival & departure card bla3 yg biasanya diserahkan dlm flight...so mcm makan masa jugak lah kan, sampai sana kena isi segala...well...just follow the rules & regulation lah...1st time ni dorang x bg siap2 dlm flight...new term kot!!!  As usual just fill-up the requested info & you must know where you'll be staying in Krabi.

After the Immigration check, weols proceed for purchase of shuttle bus ticket.  There are few counters selling the bus/taxi ticket.  For shuttle bus it cost you 150bath per person & for taxi it will cost around 500bath per taxi.

Weols beli tix for shuttle bus je & I feel its so convenience travelling from Krabi airport to Aonang Beach or Noppharat Thara Beach.  The bus driver will ask your destination & he'll drop you to the place, its so convenience rite...thumbs up!!! Kat Malaysia pun boleh jer buat mcm ni for tourist attraction...

We reached our destination i.e. Loma Place in Noppharat Thara Beach after about 1 hour journey from Krabi at about 1000 hours local time & we are so lucky because the owner allow us to check-in early...Thanks to Meed...he is the owner.  Our room is L1 & its in front of the office & allow us to access the internet from our room...GREAT!!! Hoi senangnya dalam hati...apa lagi weols pun GG ler...stretching urat2 n take a nap before ask favor from Meed to take us for BRUNCH...hahaha

0800 hours depart for ATV & Elephant ride...which i dunno the place...hahaha.  Its quite far from Aonang...nearby the Tiger Pagoda i guess...

ATV Ride: 1st u need to have a "practice" ride for about 3-4 times in the practice track...when u feel comfortable ONLY then the guide will take you for the ATV challenge track...the route is quite challenging to me...handling the ATV on your own is quite challenging, hahaha...but its FUN & i'm so excited riding it...
Its UNBELIEVABLE...yeahhh!!!

ELEPHANT Ride: Riding on "Ooi" was so fun...she is so adorable & this is an interesting activity to try...

This 2 activities takes about 2 hours plus 2 hours travelling time...

Today is our last day in Aonang....we have to pack & ready for Krabi town.  Alhamdulillah, the owner is KIND & he allow us to check-out at any time...its really a big WOW...

1400 hours After packing our belongins, he took us to makan place for lunch & later ride his "Lamborghini" around Noppharat Thara jetty before sending us to Aonang Beach for taxi/bus ride to Krabi.  It was pleasant stay in Loma Place & very good service offered!!!

We took a "tut-tut" ride from Aonang Breach to Krabi town & it cost us only about 500bath...its cheap rite!!!  The journey is about an hour.

1600 hours we reached Krabi town...the "tut-tut" driver dropped us somewhere around Krabi town & we need to walk about 20 minutes to reach our destination....the Greenary Hotel (reservation thru Agoda.com).  R&R first...

Greenary Hotel - Room interior & facilities
1730 hours we take a walk to Krabi Night Market (KNM)...it is ONLY 15minutes walk from the hotel.  KNM only operated every Friday - Sunday.  This is a suitable place for souvenirs & local crafts...u can buy t-shirt also here & the price is worth if compared to Aonang...but u MUST remember that there is NO money changer in Krabi Town that operates till nite like in Aonang Beach...so make sure u have enough "bath" for trading.

We had nasi ayam for dinner before back to hotel...& pack our things because we need to leave very early morning to Krabi Airport.
