We decided to take advantage of a cheap flight to Krabi, Thailand on the weekend of March 24-25. At $19.95 each way on Tiger Airways, we couldn't resist.



The beach was beautiful and uncrowded. Had there been some lounge chairs and umbrellas, perhaps there would have been more people.








We chose to stay at a lovely little boutique hotel called The Cliff on Ao Nang beach.

















Most unique was our outdoor bathroom with its copper basin.





















Judie enjoyed watching the hummingbirds as she brushed her teeth.









We were surprised to find breakfast waiting for us each morning on our patio.















Saturday afternoon we took the speedboat over to Railey Beach where some friends were staying.





































































We didn't want this weekend to end!













Don't you wish you were here, too?

The weekend of March 2 - 4 was a staff get-away to Desaru on the south east coast of Malaysia. Our resort overlooked the South China Sea, and the sandy beaches were practically empty. What a place to relax!








Where is everyone?


















The Pulai Resort and pool.






















The monkeys enjoyed cleaning up the left-over food and drinks.








One afternoon, we went on a river cruise.



















Past fish farms,











and mangroves,












and monkeys having a seafood feast along the shores.













After the cruise, we enjoy fresh coconuts.







































Saturday evening BBQ around the pool!





















Later that night, we were fascinated watching the hermit crabs scrambling across the beach.












All too soon, it was time to catch the half hour ferry ride back to Singapore.




The end to another incredible weekend in Asia!
