Went rock shopping and bought my very first TEKTITE rock! Tektite are made of unique elements NOT FOUND ON PLANET EARTH, because they are formed when meteorite impact with the earth and fuse non-earth elements with stuff on earth. Here is a piece of tektite called Moldavite (because it was made when a meteor hit Moldova about 15 million years ago).

...I noticed it was next to a shape that looked matched the shape of the rock!

I placed the rock onto its obvious home on the carpet and the mysteries of the cosmos were revealed.

It was actually really scary. Usually when a fish comes after you, it's just a warning to get out of their area. But this guy had a real problem with us and just wouldn't leave us alone! It was crazy!

On another note, is it just me or do the rocks on this island look like the remains of a long lost civilization that worshiped Lego People?
rocks
For the first dive, we anchored right off the coast of a tiny island called Ko Nang Yuan that's a couple hundred meters off the coast of Ko Tao.

We had to hike about 10 minutes down a super-steep mountain in order to get to where the waterfall basin was supposed to be. Before heading back up to our scooter, Meredith decided she needed to rest a bit...and then she FELL ASLEEP ON THE ROCKS. Hahaha.
rocks
On the walk back to our scooter, we took a slightly different path and walked along the beach. It was really pretty.
rocks
We got all the way down on the rocks and couldn't believe our eyes! It was a dog standing on what looked like a rock!
rocks
Check out the gorgeous view of the water. While we were admiring the view, we noticed that there was a boat anchored in the water, and to the left of the boat was something coming up out of the water. We decided to climb down onto the rocks furthest out in the water to get a better look!

In order to get there, you have to follow a rocky, boulder-y path that runs along the coastline of the island.
rocks
Homestretch! Meredith's carefully making her way over another huge sprawl of slippery rocks and you can see Long Beach in the background.
rocks
Check out how pretty and sea-worn the surface of all the giant rocks were!
rocks
A little before 4pm, the rain FINALLY fucking stopped and despite us both feeling so sleepy and a little bit sick, we decided to follow the beach all the way around the island to another part of Phi Phi Don called "Long Beach." But in order to get there, we mostly had to make our way across rocky, slippery terrain like this!

Which we decided to climb.

The slate was really pretty. Made of up of all sorts of shades of grey, blue and purple.

Look at the rickety-ass ladder we were climbing in pitch darkness. What's up, danger?

Emma and Tookie start out on the path down to the lake.

This here is "the rock," which was pretty much the locus of most of our outdoor activity.

The rock is good for laying on.

And because the girls both thought that we're jackasses and wouldn't pose, here's mountain man Joey Cavella....again.

Here's right when we got to the base of the summit.

Half-way up, we stopped to rest.

There are these giant rocks all over the place surrounding the house.
