4D3N Krabi Trip 2016 - DAY 1

Krabiii!!!!!! Here i come!
I went Krabi for a short escape with my two beloved sisters few days ago. This was the third time we would be traveling together, feeling super excited thou. ;)
The flight ticket we bought to krabi was around RM 240 (Airasia) which we consider very cheap.
Our flight from KL to Krabi was very early so we decided to stay in Capsule Hotel, KLIA2.

                         The bed is so comfortable! They do provide towel and tooth brush as well. Well , the only thing that isn't good about this hotel is kinda noisy.... hmmm.. as people check in and check out during midnight hour. The price was RM 75 for 6 hours stay. I only slept for 1-2 hours i guess? haha...must be too excited already. 

We reached Krabi International Airport after 1 hour and 15 minutes around 9 in the morning. Once we touched down, we went to taxi service center for transportation to Ananta Burin Resort.The price for our 4D3N stay in the resort was around RM 435.


                        We chose the most valuable data plan which cost around 100 Baht for unlimited internet usage with free calls! but only available for 7 days which i think is more than enough for us. 

                              The ride from airport to Ananta Burin Resort was about 45 minutes.  

                               Yay! finally can check in our hotel after long journey :) 

                              The lobby

             The bed is really big, Can fit in 3 persons comfortably.  

     

                               The view outside our balcony. hmmm... normal. After the trip, i would conclude that, this hotel has rude check-in staff =.=. No more staying here next time...zzz

        After checked in, we walked to the Aonang beach area to find some food! :) The weather was so hot.....and we were soo hungryyy...



                           Along the beach ! So hot until I can feel my skin gonna peel off.  

We walked to Aonang Boat Noodles to have our lunch which takes about half an hour from our hotel. We were so regret that we didn't use tut tut car instead. zzz
By the way, this restaurant has good reviews so we decided to give it a go no matter what ;)

          Coconut Milk Shake!  drinks that you must order in Thailand. Slurppp... 

   
         Fried Pineapple Rice ( 80 Baht ) - signature Thailand dish that must order when you are here. 

        Pad Thai ( 60 Baht ) - Fried noodle with shrimp. hmmm... normal only.. 

         Tom Yam Spicy Sour Soup ( 150 Baht ) - really spicy! sweat a lot after having this dish... haha.. but not bad. 

         Kaeng Kaes Wan ( 150 Baht ) - Green Curry spicy coconut milk 

         Fried Squid with salted egg ( 150 Baht ) - yummm.... 

             Overall meal cost around 750 Baht which i think is reasonable. definitely a recommended restaurant to try in Krabi ! First meal settled !

After that , we decided to go back hotel and take a bath before going for kayaking which was the first adventure of the day.


                                                            Selfie before kayaking 

                                           <3 

Ist Adventure - Krabi Kayak Tour at Ao Thalane.

Ao Thalane is one of the most beautiful mangrove forests in the whole of Thailand.
Once we reached there, the tour guide gave us basic briefing on the correct way to do kayak by using paddle and of course life jackets are provided. After that, we are off to the mangrove forests! woots ! damn excited ;)

         We could hardly selfie during kayaking as the little boat is not stable.  The tour guide allow us to selfie after pleasing him to stop for a while. The tour was not too energetic as we were cruising on a flat calm water. 







                                          We took some photos when we reached the turning point.  

               After 1 hour of kayaking,  the tour guide served us with coconuts and fruits. feel so refreshing ! tired but fun :)

          Me with stef !

          Wendy !

After kayaking , we went back to hotel and took a short nap.
Then we went HillTop for dinner!
Hilltop restaurant was just few minutes distance from our hotel, they do provide free shuttle bus. But make sure you book earlier as the restaurant is always fully booked.

            Selfies before departing to Hilltop ;)       

            Krabi Hilltop Restaurant - A dining place that you must visit when you are here in Krabi 

              Kinda crowded - can't wait for photo taking!  

         Me with delicious Thai food ;) 

            Wendy :)
              Stephanie :) 

          Facing the sunset view while having dinner is the greatest feeling ever. Such a romantic place. 

           Beautiful scenery from Hilltop

             Fried Soft Crab ( 390 Baht ) - the portion was kinda small and taste normal. hmmmm 

          Pineapple Fried Rice ( 490 Baht ) - Large. YUmmmmm... this was really good.   

          Kinda forget what is this called. but very similar to what we eat in Malaysia which is called ' Mani cai '?

                           Tom Yam Goong ( 220 Baht ) -  Spicy lemongrass with shrimp soup. This is really awesome. For spicy lover , definitely would be a great dish. 

           Mango Stick Rice ( 180 Baht ) - not bad.

          Its getting darker and darker.... 

         Took a picture before leaving ! I will miss this place for sure,


After this, we used the free shuttle bus from Hilltop to go back to town area of Aonang.
Well, its time for massage! we spent around 250Baht for Foot Massage which was so relaxing.Kinda forget which massage shop we went in already. =p
We walked back to hotel after the foot massage and first day in Krabi had come to an end. Ready for tomorrow!
