Ao Nang Beachs

We are so lucky. We are incredibly fortunate. Krabi is one of the most beautiful places we've been. Long sandy beaches, limestone rock formations, palm trees, bright blue sky, warm ocean water, what more could we want?

We started our day with home schooling. I'm not sure how we're going to manage to get our school work in everyday. We have some boat tours and things planned. Hopefully it will all get done, and we won't be making up for it this summer!

This afternoon we headed to Nopparat Thara Beach. It's about 3 or 4 km from our hotel. The water was clear and so warm. We swam a few times and read our books. Yasmin was only supposed to go in for 15 minutes at a time because of her foot injury. It was so difficult to pull her out with everyone having so much fun.

After that beach we walked back towards town and did a bit of shopping and browsing. We then took a late afternoon stroll along Ao Nang Beach. Some guys came up to us and were pointing at our bags. We had bought bread and tea and a few other things. This seemed very strange until we noticed them carrying a bunch of clam-like shells. So we emptied one of our bags into the other and gave them a plastic bag to carry what I expect would later become their dinner.

They didn't speak English, but were still able to tell us that to find the shells, you need to dig in the spot that you see two little air holes in the sand. Yasmin found a couple for them and Roya dug one up too.

We walked to the end of the beach to a restaurant called "The Last Cafe". We didn't realize that they only serve breakfast and lunch! The view was great and the stroll along the beach as the sun was setting was relaxing.
