Today we didn't have to get up early because last night we didn't sleep. We took a shower and got ready for the van. We wanted to go to Phang Nga, James Bond Island, by tour. Then we went to have breakfast at the usual shop. I had Ham and Chesse Omlette again. It was my favourite food when I stayed there. When we finished eating we came back to the hotel. We waited for the van for about ten minutes. When it came, I went straight in the van to sleep because last night I didn't sleep. So I was very sleepy. The van took us to the rest area to wait for the bus. We waited there for about half an hour. It was boring. Then we met Game's family who came by another van. They said they will go to tour same place as us. They will go by other tour not the same with us but they will go same place as us. Not long time, the bus came. When we went into the bus, I went straight to sleep again but I couldn't because the guide was making a loud noise. He was telling us about: where will we go, Why we go there for, How will we go etc.

First, we went to a temple. We paid respect to the buddha and watched them making merit by giving some food to the monks. Then we went to a small port to go to James Bond Island. We went to James Bond Island by long tail boat. It was very fun. Long tail boat was very fast, the water splashed my face. It took about forty five minutes to get there. When we got there we took a picture and walked around. James Bond Island in Thai is called "Koh Tapoo". Koh means island and Tapoo means nail. We call it that because the shape of the island looks like a nail. We saw a lot of shops there. I thought it had about 52 shops because it had numbers on every shop. Phong and me went to the toilet there, we had to pay 2 baht each.

After that we went to eat lunch at "Muslim Fishing Village". It was buit above the water. The food there wasn't really delicious, we didn't like it. Then we went straight back to that small port. We bought ice-cream to eat in the bus. When I finished eating, I slept in the bus. My friend woke me up when we arrived at the rest area. We went into the van and went back to the hotel.

When we arrived at the hotel, we went to our room. Before, I thought I didn't forget anything but I forgot my cap in the van. Why was I very silly? Then we went to eat dinner at that shop where we ate yesterday with Game's family. After we were full up, we went to Patong Beach to play Go Kart and Crazy Golf. I was the winner both of those games we played. Then we went back to the hotel. We took a bath, watched movies and played cards. Then we went to bed.
