So we did go back to Phi Phi. It was basically Nadine's stage, and I just tugged along as an extra, but I knew that already when I agreed to come. We didn't stay at Tropical Garden this time, but at her place, Phi Phi Chukit, right next to Hippies Bar down by the beach strip. The room was okay, but they were a bit bitchy about the "free breakfast", which ended way too early (10:30) and was all of a sudden not part of our 500 Bath accommodation anymore, even though they said so when we checked in.
Nadine really enjoyed hanging out with the Thai guys from Apache and Hippies Bar, but they wouldn't go anywhere near her while I was around, so I offered to leave early (around 2am when the music stopped) while she'd hang out with them till the early morning. Not very social of them if you ask me, but whatever, I guess that's Thai guys for you..
The course of the day was pretty much the same every day: Get up around noon, have a chicken sandwich at her favourite place, chat and practice English, maybe go to the beach for a while if the sun was out, get a bucket and kill it infront of our room, go to Apache at night. Any of my tries to break the cycle, like going to Cosmics for food or to the Sunflower bar for some live music were thwarted by "the leading lady"! ;-)
On the last day before leaving we did finally get our asses up to actually do something different, so we went cliff jumping. The highest ledge I jumped from was 12 meters, it was quite fun! We did go to Monkey Beach (yet again) and some snorkelling (yet again) afterwards, but for Nadine it was the first time snorkelling, she had never worn a mask or fins before, and I think she quite liked it (not the fins though).
We flew back to Bangkok on One-Two-Go Airlines, a budget Airline I hadn't been on before - but Nadine had, and she said it was a really really scary flight. And sure enough: The plane that crashed a few days later killing about 90 people on Phuket was One-Two-Go!
