Ko Sirey

Today we went to Ko Sirey a small island joined to Phuket by a road bridge barely 10 minutes from here. It is so different from the city full of small house on stilt villages and beautiful scenery. From what we saw it's about to be developed into the next beachfront getaway but right now it's pretty much unspoiled jungle meeting white sand. We went to a Sea Gypsy village but couldn't really gauge the lifestyle as it had already been conquered as a tourist attraction with stalls selling jewelry and a large empty beach front bar. Also people here are casual about litter which can ruin the view.
There are a lot of mangrove forests and living in one were a whole load of monkeys. There were some really tiny baby ones.
