Sunday, Aug 5: Railay Beach - Koh Phi Phi

We (the guys and the three girls) left Railay and arrived in Koh Phi Phi at around noon. Now I had not been feeling to well, and consequently I made the horrendous mistake of entrusting the girls with finding a place to stay. The girls being as spoiled and whiny and that they are, wasted our time tremendously. Specifically, we went to a different part of the island (called Long Beach) using a taxi boat. Again, as was the case with the taxi boat from Railay (I haven't mentioned this yet) they whined about the possibility of it going under, and about the holes it had and so on and so forth. Most irritating. Once we got to Long Beach we couldn't find a satisfactory place for them. Things have gotten even worse. There was this one English person at a hotel, which is a rare commodity (i.e. an English speaking person) and the girls were so nasty to him that I literally wanted to bury myself. Anyway, it was so bad that I ended up walking up to him later and apologizing for their behavior. No wonder Israelis get such bad reputation (and these Israelis didn't even mean bad...). Anyway, after this we found only one room and I was quite glad as it was a good excuse for us to do the "gentleman's thing" and let the girls have it and have walk to the other side of the island (30 min). Nir picked up my thought right away as was clear from our exchange of stares. Unfortunately, Inbal found a bloody taxi boat and my hope of dumping the girls shattered. So off we went to the other side of the island (together). At that point we finally split when nothing seemed good enough for the girls. We had little trouble finding a satisfactory room.

One last thing about the girls. It seem they are (especially Nati) the most spoiled and whiny people I've ever met. Now this is interesting in light of the fact that the dumbest person I've ever met is also Israeli ("Gveret Timtemet" as we called her from the Whitsundays sailing). Makes me wonder...

The rest of the day was just dinner, since there wasn't much day left...
