Full Moon

I spent one week in Ko Lipe, which is a very quiet island without much to do. There were 4 of us that went together (craig and the 2 swiss). We got up around 12 and chilled in the hammock or on the beach until about 8, when it was time for dinner, then a few drinks at the beach bar and bed. Nothing accomplished except a lot of relaxin.

Ko Phangan was next. This beach has the Full Moon Party. It's a huge party every full moon. We got there 3 days early and the next 3 nights the amount of people multiplied exponentially. So many people...all in their 20's and mostly all westerners. There isn't much to do in Ko Phangan and almost all the people are here just for the party.

The days leading up to the party were great, the beach was full, but not to full, and everyone was looking forward to the party. The night of the party thousands of people came into town (just for the night) and the place was so packed if you lost your friends you'd probably not see them again for the night. We all had a good time, but nothing too crazy hapened.

We stayed on the island for another 2 days to rest and relax (Julie had just arrived the day before the party). The next beach is Ko Tao, the diving island.
