Chapter 36 - Still Fat

Yesterday was a day of exploration as the adventurers sett off by boat to explore the Phi Phi islands (there are 2 plus some smaller out-lyers).

Quick visits to the various locations of The Beach coupled with a load of snorkelling and a failed attempt to swim with sharks marked out the morning.

Lunch was enlivened by the skipper mocking Sir Ranulph's gut, reports of it rapidly diminishing may be premature.

The afternoon was spent swimming to Bamboo Island (with the tide) which was very good, a sleep on the beach and then swimming back (against the tide) which was less amusing.

The day was topped off with a trip to Monkey Beach where one of the people on the boat was attacked by a mob of monkeys, no doubt driven mad with thirst from all the salted peanuts being fed to them by the tourists.
