Tides of Krabi


Longtail boat under a mangrove tree : High tide

Last week Bryce and Bonnie visited Krabi. There were three other couples and two of them had toddlers Bryce's age. We arrived in the dark of the night and by longtail boat during high tide. We could see shilouets of the mountains, as the longtail sailed past the tall cliffs, it made the anticipation for morning like Christmas. Krabi is a peninsula, however, you have to travel by boat due to the enormous mountains. When we woke up it was beautiful. We could see the cliffs tower over our private walled in patio. The room was just as amazing, it was a villa with a koi pond outdoor shower, cold water Jacuzzi, and a spacious room (also an indoor shower). The resort was so peaceful. One of the days we were there our group hired a boat to take us to Poda Island. The kids and adults loved it. We played in the sand, swam with the fish and had a picnic lunch (We were famous for a moment when a paparazzi crew stalked while we feed the babies).The final day we were there it rained most of the day. It was still nice to relax as all the ladies enjoyed a spa day. That evening when we left a tractor drove us to our boat since the tide was so low. Once we got to the otherside it was a walk to the peir over sand, sea, and coral. Thank goodness for sandles. What a difference the tide makes.
