Krabi offered a weekend of incredible scenic views, challenging rock climbing, and afternoons lounging by the pool. The best part is that we enjoyed all of this with our friends Nelson, Ted and Meghan, and Mitch and Leah.
We woke up to beautiful clear skies Saturday morning. After a short walk along the beach and a quiet breakfast we headed out and spent the afternoon rock climbing.
As neither of us have climbed in years, we started on a lower rated climb, but quickly caught up with our more experienced friends and attempted to tackle more challenging climbs- sometimes with success, sometimes…not…but always trying with a determined smile! My advice- never look down!
You really don’t realize how high the climb is until you near the top. Just keep scrambling upwards, take rests when necessary, and always listen to the advice of your guide (who knows the wall like the back of his hand).
It was a very exciting afternoon and we now have a new interest that we plan to pursue while traveling (sorry mom- but rest assured, we’ll always do so responsibly).
We spent the rest of the day lounging by the pool (which looked over the beach), playing frisbee and as the day passed to evening, we enjoyed a beautiful sunset.
After a late night out, we were slow to rise on Sunday and decided against the
original plan to rent a kayak. 
Instead it was back to the pool and to the salon for a neck, shoulders, and back massage.
The rain rolled in during our last two hours in Krabi- couldn’t ask for better timing- as we browsed local souvenir shops.
No doubt we will return to Krabi again and again for the beaches and climbing while we’re in Singapore.
