‘Round the World

Last Day on Koh Phi Phi

Posted by Dave on September 5th, 2008

Approaching Phi Phi's main beach

Before those drinks with Nathan my last night, I’d spent the day in the shade, though I did stop by a beach restaurant for lunch to take in the views. Between rooftop ferry rides and baking under an umbrella on the sand, I needed the break.

I spent a few hours on the internet doing the often mundane acts of uploading photos and creating DVD back-ups to send home.

Phi Phi Don's main village

In the late afternoon, I met up with Catharine and Josie, and along with another French Canadian, we ascended the steep stairs and path to a scenic viewpoint.

The photo opportunities were great, though the sunset itself did not beat the one we saw our first night from Long Beach.

After the sunset, we headed back to town for dinner and a delicious Cornetto ice cream cone from 7-11. I’d been eating them daily for weeks, and Josie and Catharine affinity for them lessened my guilt. :)
