1. My brother told me how good it was down there, so in April 2000 i followed him and 2 of his friends to LOS.
I had worked without vacaton for 4 years after i splitt up with my ex, and needed a time out badly...
Started with 2 days in Bangkok, then down to Koh Samui-Koh Phangan-Phuket-PhiPhi Island-Krabi-Railay Beach-back to Phuket and then Bangkok for the last 2 days. In all i spend 1 month there.

2. Best part is a tricky one...
Ao Thong Nai Pan Yai, Koh Phangan , is a place i remember. Nothing to do except snorkeling, kanoeing and stay on the beach in daytime. In the nights you had some small pubs along the beach. Not a place to party, more to sit and relax with a beer and talk.

Phi Phi is a must for everyone that hasnt been there. There is a few good places like Reaggie Bar, Carlitos, Tintin Bar where you can hang around in the evenings. More of a place to relax on.Great diving and snorkeling too.

Phra Nang Beach in Railey is also a fantastic place. Dont forget to climb down to the hidden lagoon when you are there.

And of course Patong for the nightlife...
In December i stayed for the first time in Patong. Have only stayed in Karon before. Like the beach there better then Patong.

Going back to LOS in the end of June again, for my 5th trip, but absolutely NOT the last!!
Its not the girls that makes me come back, it is the whole thing with Thailand. The sun, beaches, food, nature, sounds, smell, traffic....
I can go on forever..
