Soft Shelled Crab


Stuart about to eat a deep fried soft-shell crab. Yep, thats a whole crab that they dip into goo, and chuck in a deep fat fryer. Shell and all. I picked one up a couple of times but could not force myself to eat even a leg. Stu did tho'. Good on yer cuz.

You can find Stuarts Website here.

As part of the restaurant they have a bar-b-que, with a tuk-tuk taxi parked next to it. Thats the Thai bit of Thai Mary I think (apart from the food of course).

Now this one was HUGE. It must have been about 5 foot long by 1.5 feet tall, and was about 1 foot thick as well.

Once safely back on land we went to the Aquarium, with the ever popular SHARK TUNNEL.

It was at this point when I pointed the camera down that I realised that if we did disconnect from the cables we would bounce down the hill while still inside the POD, then crash into the water and drown. Hopefully we would be unconcious by the time we hit the water, because if we were still concious we would have to get out of what is esentially a well constructed cage. Hmmmnnn. Time to point the camera back at the horizon I think.

This is your option if you dont want to go on the cable cars. Not that much better really. If you dont like heights you'll still be scared when you turn around at the top of the stairs, its just that you'll be hot, sweaty and tired as well. Which will probably make you fall all the way down the stairs, sustaining multiple everything.
