Am Morgen muessen wir noch einmal umziehen, da es in unserer eigentlichen Herberge erst ab heute Zimmer gab. Also checken wir um 10:00 wieder aus, laufen 50 Meter ueber den Strand ins Lea Pae Resort, wo wir die letzten 5 Naechte unseres Urlaubs verbringen. Um 11:30 koennen wir unseren Bungalow beziehen, vorher habe ich mir schon einen schoenen Platz zum Schnorcheln am linken Rand des Strandes ausgesucht. Heute soll meine neueste eBay Errungenschaft zum Einsatz kommen. Ein wasserdichter Tauchsack in dem meine Kamera mit Batteriepack und Blitz Platz finden. Ich baue alles zusammen, setze mein 100er Macro an und es geht los. Schnell noch Maske, Schnorchel und Flossen ausleihen, dann laufen wir zum Schnorchelplatz. Anja findet ein lauschiges Plaetzchen in weissen Sand und ich bin sofort im Wasser. Wer mich kennt, weiss das ich nur schwer, eigentlich gar nicht zu bewegen bin ins Wasser zu gehen, wenn es nicht mindestens 34 Grad hat und hier hat es hoechstens 29 Grad, aber ich bin heiss auf Unterwasserfotos und fuer die Fotografie breche ich schon einmal ein paar Grundsaetze. Bereits 10 Meter vom Strand entfernt beginnen die Korallenbaenke und die Unterwasserwelt ist wie so oft in Thailand von ueppiger Schoenheit und einer hinreisenden Farbenpracht. I forget time and space and pass by in 3 hours in the water. Clown fish in sea anemone, parrotfish in many colors, box fish, fish unknown to me in all colors and shapes. Unfortunately, it is just covered and the full color spectrum of the underwater world is not to light and also I am totally frozen solid and tired, so I swim once checked back to my pictures and warm up a little. With a Coke and some I cannot load my memory card on my Epson mass storage device with image viewer. Too little light, ok, I'm here to learn how to do underwater. I pusch the sensor for the next dive to ISO 640 and set a relatively high number of panel 8, a more Tiefenschaerfe to get because it's hard to focus under water always right, because by the mask, the dive bag, which identifies water layer between them and the slight water film or haze in the spectacles is usually not much in the viewfinder. After another two and half hours of snorkeling, the results are much better and as we plan the next day with our Danish neighbors bungalow a snorkel tour by long tail boat, I am confident to make some remarkable shots. At 18:00 clock, we are back in the bungalow, now I'm so ausgekuehlt, I miss the really hot showers. 5 1 / 2 hours in the water I have done total, despite the 28 degree water temperature. Before dinner, I must first sleep for an hour. In the evening we test a different beach restaurant and it is sensational. Yesterday was good but today the food is just perfect. Also, I'm incredibly happy that the sun shone today hardly has the Schwille my calves during the meal slowly and are quite burned. With cortisone cream from Anya's portable pharmacy can I get some relief, then I fall into a dead sleep the same.
Today I must protect better snorkeling. the sun is shining over my calves and Ko Lipe not tolerate another dose. Without further ado, I am looking for my longest socks, cut them on the toes and have Sonneschutzgamaschen a couple. With my hyphal Langarmschirt with built-in sun protection factor of 60, my three-quarter-length Diesel-Fake Strandhose und meinen Sockengamaschen bin ich rundum geschuetzt als wir um 9:30 mit dem Longtailboot zum ersten Tauchspot aufbrechen. Sicherheitshalber schmiere ich mir noch eine viertel Tube Sonnencreme auf die Waden und in den Nacken, dann sind wir am ersten Spot. Der Platz ist an der Engstelle zwischen zwei Inseln und wir haben nur eine halbe Stunde Zeit, da dann die Stroemung durch die einsetzende Flut zu stark wird um hier zu Schnorcheln. Der Platz ist nicht der Hit, da das Wasser hier zu tief ist um die ganze Pracht zu geniessen, aber es ist der nächstgelegene Platz um Weichkorallen mit Ihren praechtigen Farben zu sehen. Die halbe Stunde verstreicht wieder einmal wie im Flug, aber es reicht auch und wir fahren zur naechsten Insel, wo wir nahe dem Ufer schnorcheln . Can A super spot with an incredible variety of fish. As a highlight, I get to see even a reef shark, the length of about one meter swims relatively close to me. Until then, I always had to see panic at the thought of a shark under water, but the animal is so shy and always looking for a safe distance from me, finally I try to follow him to shoot a picture. Of course, the shark as quickly and carefully, I do not have the slightest chance to get close enough to him to which I would have to focus time and the fish is still the background. I give up and Pursuing prefer the variety of colorful fish that present themselves today in the sunshine. After one and half hours we go to the next island, not the exception, of rock and white sand, but exclusively of rounded black pebbles. After I emptied my memory card and checked the images I go snorkeling here, but float in water have been spoiled for too many of the fine filament, strong stinging jellyfish that the others in our group to snorkel. Thanks to my sunscreen complete clothes I get from just a few of the stinging nettle-like Quatteln, but as I constantly look for the fine red threads must look out there's no fun at these spots. The next step we take a snorkel from the beach a dream of you and I can swim to a rocky outcrop on the edge of the sandy beach. Here you can swim through the rocks and always comes back in new, flanked by rock pools without any flow, so that the water is crystal clear. Through the rocks there is a before and would be diving and snorkeling in greater depth not only at the surface. To swim again in columns or access shallow areas where the fish are close to. Today it is a little warmer, most of the time the sun is shining and it cools down so quickly. Therefore, time flies by in and when we go back again at 15:30 I again spent many hours enough in my new element. After a nap, eating dinner, unfortunately, it begins to rain. The next morning
has it been completely removed and the tropical rain forest shows us the whole day, he's Name carries to right. We just stay long in bed and try to idle away the day. After breakfast, it is clear today that I will not go into the water, as it sometimes rains in torrents. Anja takes your read books that we exchange book exchange at the cafe but not against new books to 2 cups of cafe because she wanted to give it away anyway. The Thai that operates the cafe makes us two extremely strong coffee because she thinks the books, a thousand pages and still a weighty tome indeed are also two strong books. Then there are maintenance program. Anja makes one hours oil massage and I inflict upon myself to manicure and pedicure a head massage. In the afternoon, then I hope some of the tropical wildlife to see, after all, are es hier Cobras, Boas bis zu 6 Metern Laenge, allerlei Echsen, Nashornvoegel und, und, und. Der Urwald scheint gleich hinter der Bungalowreihe zu beginnen und ich ziehe mit Fotoapparat und einem Stock bewaffnet ins Dickicht. Schon nach wenigen Metern im daempfigen Regenwald habe ich meine ersten tierischen Erlebnisse. Oberhalb meines Hosenbundes haben sich mehrere grosse rote Ameisen in meinen Bauchspeck verbissen und versuchen mich zu Boden zu schmeissen. Sie haben keine Chance, aber mir brennt der Wanst. Ich knoepfe mich erst einmal komplett zu, Hose in die Socken, Hemd in die Hose, alle Knoepfe schliessen, aber die Muecken finden immer noch ausreichend Angriffsflaeche und Kettenrauchen bringt auch nicht viel. Dann werde ich aber fuer meinen Einsatz belohnt. Im Unterholz I stumbled over the rotting stump of a teak tree, at the transition from stem to the root of the decomposition and the termites have a piece of wood can stand that looks like a dragon in Chinese mythology. I pick up the pieces and I'm speechless. Drachenschnautze, eye, ear, legs, body and a long jagged tail. The whole thing could have been better not carve. The good piece is so fragile, but I decide to take back home. I propose further through the undergrowth and suddenly I am back on a path that brings me to a few meters to a wooden shed with 3 monks. I happily received by the head monk, a bast mat is spread, I get a plate of fruit and a bottle of water and before I realize anything I sit with 3 monks in the forest and we are trying with a handful of English words and sign language to entertain. First, they throw themselves on my dragon and one of the monks showed me his upper body tattooed with dragons. Then he wants to carve my dragon and paint the same, but I decline with thanks, because I think for him perfectly, just as nature created it. Shortly thereafter, one old lady comes with your grandchildren and seeks advice from the monks. It submits your request and will discuss wild, rebuked, laughed and praised. Then tried my opinion be sought but the communication possibilities we set limits. After a half hour I'll have to continue because Anja waiting for me. We even while away the time until dinner, and when we heard go to bed finally raining again. From the internet we have learned that a cyclone over Indonesia holds, whose slopes range up to Bangkok. Unfortunately, it will not be in the next few days more. At least it no longer
rains the next day. Anja goes after breakfast back to the massage and I borrow again mask and fins to snorkel again. I am well protected in Ganzkoerperkondom despite outside temperatures of 25 and in Wassertempereturen of 27 degrees for 6 hours at a stretch of water. This time I brought a bag with boiled rice to attract the fish and some times I find myself in a cloud of Reiskoernern and fish again I edited the eating out of hand. Once, when I swim over a large brain coral I see in my first Moray. She looks good yards out of your hole and the head is written as thick as my thigh. I quickly bring something safe distance between me and the beast, as I have in front of the Moray more respect than before the shark. We lie in wait for about half an hour, then I'm glad they do not have the hole on your left. As soon after the tide turns, I catch fish in shallow water, a box of about 40 cm in length can not really hide from me. Normally these fish are very shy and usually I have only seen from a distance. This is particularly beautiful with its Leopardenfaerbung and when he has finally managed vorbeizuschwimmen to me he takes refuge in a coral and pumps are full of water. Ah, suitcases fish like puffers, interesting. I weigh it in safety until it is pumped out again and has come out, then I follow him, until he once again aufblaesst. What a spectacle. The fish really like the shoe box with a colorful thick-lipped mouth, bulging eyes opens his looks and draws water into itself for so long until it is spherical, resulting in his position until then hidden under the shed thorns. When he realizes that I want him no harm, he lets the water again and swims away. I managed to drag myself back to shore in the evening and am now on the gums. Anja reads in a bar nearby and I have only once come to a beer as fast as possible to sizzle for a few calories. Now in the late afternoon, the sky clears, the sun comes out and brought us a beautiful sunset. was also the night sky is clear and even though I now of many snorkel a heavy cold, we decide on the next day to rent a boat again, so I also the last day can spend plenty of water.
with sandwiches and cola fruit it the next day is back on the water and I get a few fish to see that I had not seen before. So there are clown fish, Nemo, that have the same shape and pattern, but are bigger and a black body have with light blue stripes and orange fins. Again, I see a large Moray to me with open mouth threat but not your hole is leaving. The highlight of this time, however, are some of the colorful fish, a red jelly fish with white dots in the size of a Mueslischale have made and they chew up the blood lust she can finally flee under a coral. Shortly after, I see another that looks like a jellyfish Parasolpilz and size as a dinner plate is. This jellyfish is dead and then falling about 50 fish of three species over her. The fish are in a frenzy, I can touch it and get fantastic close-ups. While photographing the underwater you never see exactly what you get, but when I saw the pictures afterwards I'm absolutely flabbergasted. Late afternoon we are back home and pack for de Chichi the next morning.
this time we have booked a speedboat, which creates the route to the mainland in half the time. The advantage of the speed boat is also that it is driven by its three two-hundred horsepower motors so that it does not bounce sideways so that I, despite rough seas is not bad. By speed boat we are good at the time when our train leaves at 16:15 and we only have over four hours back down to the 200 KM to Thung Song. At the port also has mini-buses are available to passengers at the different places to drive. We wonder through and find a short bus now goes to Trang, where we again want to drive a taxi to Thung Song. Enterprising we secure our seats and after 5 minutes it starts. After about half an hour to me is the wrong route before. First, it's just a feeling and I pay attention to the first road signs. Then it is clear something is wrong here. Unfortunately, the driver does not understand me, but I hear from the other passengers then we not to Trang in the north to Hat Yai, but go to the east. A glance at the map tells me it will give us not already booked and paid for our train, because it on the next 100 KM is not even a place where we can get. The only consolation is that Hat Yai is also on the train to Bangkok and from there we will certainly also a train when also expected to get any sleep car. In Hat Yai we leave the mini-bus at the station and rush immediately to the ticket office, there is still a small chance that we can climb our train already here. But the train has already left. After some search on the computer, we get a further 2 sleeper tickets for the train in four hours, however, is a place in car 3, the other 15th in car We can transfer our tickets to pay the surcharge but Anja is not thrilled, at least it has in the night birthday. Finally, it has the glorious invasion of tickets for the first class to questions and here we will actually have a separate sleeping compartment in the same train. So we book once more, now charged 70 € instead of 40 € for 2 tickets on the first class sleeping car, for a distance of about 1300 km. We are happy. This is a blessing in disguise. The compartment is spacious, the beds are comfortable and we can determine the temperature in the compartment, which is a real advantage. In the morning at 10:30 we are in Bangkok, again to get a room in the New World Lodge Hotel, where we've been down already on the way there. The rest of the day belongs Anja, who would like to do on your birthday, an extensive shopping spree in Bangkok. From 12:00 to 19:00 clock we are therefore in MBK, Bangkok's mega department store, then an hour in Silom Village, a tourist shopping area and finally, two hours of night market. When we clock again at 23:00 in the hotel, sleep wir sofort ein, so erschlagen sind wir von diesem Marathon.
Heute heisst es Abschied nehmen von unserem bisher laengsten Urlaub. Um 8:15 fahren wir mit dem Taxi zum Flughafen, checken ein und um 13:00 mit zwei Stunden Verspaetung fliegen wir zurueck nach Muenchen.
Schee wars.
