Day 3: Thursday, December 31 2009 

I was down in the hotel lobby at 07:20 sharp. The driver first went to another hotel to pick up a couple from Singapore. They were Chinese, and didn't speak any English. At the next stop, we picked up a man and a woman - Indian from Singapore. We actually had no idea where we were going or what was going to happen, but we all just followed the tour guide. 





I also noticed that I was the only "single" person.
There were two couples + the tour guide
(although the two people from Singapore weren't a couple)

 

Sarah (from Singapore) and I were nervous to get onto this boat.
The water was a bit rough. Thanks to some guys who helped us, we got on safely!
This was the guide on the boat - with a VERY unique laughter!

 
 

Men rowed right up to the boat to sell souvenirs to tourists.
I bought this:

 





This young man was selling garlands.
...and bread to feed the fish.


 

The fish were a bit vicious - kinda like the cab drivers!
