Back in the late 80's there wasn't a whole bunch of development on Koh Phi Phi Don, the largest of the Phi Phi Islands. The deeper bay is Ton Sai Bay to the south (left in this photo) so this is where the ferry boats pulled in to what was then a fairly circumspect pier. Loh Dalam Bay, the bay on the north, was quite shallow and at low water you could walk a long way out on the sand.

On this first trip to the island I took a few days and went over to Koh Phi Phi - the Phi Phi islands - about 25 miles east-south-east of the town of Phuket. The photo below is one of the limestone outcrops that jut out of the Andaman Sea in this area.

Of course, I was in Brunei to look for (more) oil. This is a shot I took of a jackup drilling rig and supply boat at sunset one evening. I'm standing on the beach and my best guess is I used a 500mm for this shot.

When I was younger I would fling my BMW 5-series (and younger still my Honda motorbike) down this hill and around the bend in the photo at over 60 mph, trusting to luck that there wouldn't be a tractor around the blind corner.

This is a shot of the R719 and the railroad that runs parallel to it about 18 miles south of Bothaville in the Free State, a couple of miles south of our camp at Schoonspruit/Skoonspruit.
