Emerging from the hong into Phang Nga Bay it became clear we needed to get to the boat, and quickly.
Emerging from the serene jade green of the hong, it was a tad surprising to see the overcast skies of the world outside.
In most cases, the way out of a hong is just the reverse of the way in but some have more than one route.
I titled today's photo, 'Honging out' as that's essentially what we did once inside the hongs.
Having arrived on location we inflated the canoes, left the mother-ship, paddled through the cave and found ourselves inside a hong.
As night follows day, a sunrise follows a sunset. Today's sunrise photo titled, 'A passage to Bangkok', was taken from a Thai Airways 747.
