Whaat? Still in ton sai

I wasn't kidding when I said I was really starting to enjoy ton sai. 
Julia and I enjoyed our own morning yoga class. 
Our awesome yoga teacher taught us about how ton sai is really just a seasonal town with people here 3-4 mints of the year. 
Despite that, she had to rent her space for a year. Not a town to get to know the local culture. I had tried inquiring about the effects of the tsunami and learned tidbits here and there. Thr best information I got was " that was ten year ago". 
So, Julia and I decided to leave and head via bus to another beach town to see a national reserve along the water. 

Packed up and ready to go, we missed our connector bus and decided to stay. 
With another day in ton sai, we kayaked, explored, and visited phra nang beach 

where I was able to do some fun bouldering problems. Falling in the sad wasn't too bad because I was able to hop in the water and rinse off. 
Talking about culture in ton sai/ the railay peninsula, there is a definite clbimg culture. People are nice and inviting and interested in meeting other climbers. With more time here, I could really improve my skills. Though, our new friends, Johnny and nick, did warn us about the to sai tummy. Yup, apparently before we arrived many people were sick for days. Ick, here's to hoping we are all in the clear.
