Leaving Krabi - Day 93

Our mooching levels have reached a new high:
Because of bad weather and poor planning we ended up staying one more night in Rai Leh, this time sharing a bed with a super helpful and kind Aussie who took pity on us and decided to lend us a helping hand. We're ever so grateful and happy we avoided sleeping in a tent during the torrential downpour that prevailed all through the night.
People did apparently not want us to leave. Our muay thai instructor looked very sad this morning (despite winning the fight last night) and when asking what was wrong, he replied: "I am sad you leave today. Please stay.". Another guy at the bar made up an elaborate story about the bus and train stations being flooded demonstrating vividly with a map explaining the meteorogical phenomenon which laid behind, so we would have to stay in Krabi a few more days....
Though our stay has been fun and exciting, we really want to get a move on and see new places before the inevitable and dreaded return to Finland... Also we are a bit tired of taking showers in public bathrooms and explaining to people that we do not know where we are heading next.
Time to ditch Thailand in favor of neighboring Malaysia. Scuba diving will be our top priority there.

Keep on enjoying the weather and especially the Light over there. The Phranang Peach would really do for us, the Seger family here in Finland!
