We spent December travelling up from Langkawi through the Thai islands to Phuket where we cleared in to Thailand on December 15, which means we must leave on January 13.  We spent Christmas in the Similan Islands and New Years Eve at Patong Bay back at Phuket.

 

Graham and Marianne joined us for 3 days on their way back from France and we made a short tour of Phang Nga Bay.  Currently we are in Yacht Haven Marina, changing oil on the generator and engine and provisioning for our trip to the Maldives.
