Cheap transport

Today we woke and went for a walk around a huge park near where we are staying. For a massive city such as Bangkok, it was a nice find. We then tried to find our way to the sky train but it wasn’t as easy as we thought it would be and ended up bumping into a local who gave us some friendly...

An exhausting first day in the bustling Bangkok

After an ok’ish night’s sleep we arrived in Bangkok. Chris was adamant not to stay in the backpackers area of Khao San Road so we ended up getting the metro to Lumpini, where we searched out a guestHouse and found a nice one with AC for 400 Baht (£8). We got ourselves showered then headed off...

Over-night train journey...

We woke up, checked out, had some nice lunch, wasted a few hours in a coffee bar with free Wi-Fi and then headed to the train station at 5pm for our overnight train to Bangkok. At the station the night market was just starting to get going so we got lots of tasty treats to eat on the train. ...

Bye Koh Lanta and Hello Trang!

Today we left Long Beach Chalets in Koh Lanta, which was a shame as we loved this place, the staff and pretty much everything about the place! But time to get backpacking again and back to being on a budget! So we made our way to Trang to optimistically get straight on a train to Bangkok. The...

Exploring Koh Lanta and Chris' painful massage from a tiny Thai lady!!

Today we got up and hired a scooter for the day to drive around Koh Lanta. It was a lovely hot day so perfect to be on the bike! Chris really did looked funny though in his pink helmet that was too small for his head, driving on a cute pink bike! But he was still happy and loved...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRIS!!!

Chris’ birthday! Chris had a great day today especially loving the fact that I was practically his personal slave for the day unable to say no to him today as the response would be, ‘It is my birthday though’… No, I’m only joking, it was a fantastic day! We got up, had breakfast and everyone...

Back to Krabi to go to Koh Lanta

Today we sadly left Railay as it was so lovely here, but we wanted to find somewhere a little less touristy but equally as nice for Chris’ birthday tomorrow, so headed to Koh Lanta. We took a long tail boat from Railay to Krabi but it dropped us off somewhere different to where we took the long...

Beautiful Thailand!

After getting in a 2am and then messing around on the computer for a while we didn’t wake up until 12.00. We then wandered out for some brunch and then over to Phra Nang Cave beach. The beach was amazing with warm, clear water and beautiful scenery all around. I was completely ‘Wowed’...

Railay Firedancing

Feeling quite a lot better this morning, we decided it was time to venture to Railay (or Rai Leh), an isolated beach area a boat ride away from Krabi. We went to the long-tail boat harbour at 11am and had to wait until there were 6 passengers, about 90 minutes. But it was nice to just sit...

Feelin' pretty sicky :(

Today we didn’t actually leave the hostel until 6pm. I spent the whole night last night and day today running from the bed to the shared bathrooms so I suppose quite an active day after all. It’s typical though that the one time we are ill we pick a place where there is no bathroom inside the...
