Bangkok - Ko Chang, day three

partenza all'alba (da non credere!), taxi fino alla stazione est dei pullman: bus incredibilmente sciccoso che in 4 ora mi porta fino a Trat: oi un'altro pulmino sgangherato per raggiungere il porticciolo: battello fino all'isola di Ko Chang; altropulmino sgangherato fino al posto dove...

Storms and Stones.

Our time in Thailand is nearly at an end and we can't believe how quickly three weeks has passed. Basically since the last time we wrote to you we have done very little except sunbathe, swim, read and eat! It's been marvelous! We have had a little excitement though in the shape of a rather...

Back to city life

Arrived at the airport and caught a Taxi in to Bangkok to our hotel. The taxi was driving at 100km/hr, after the weeks of slow moving transport it felt it was death-defyingly fast! The hotel is near Khoa San Road - the backpackers haven of Bangkok. We settled in and headed straight out again...

Being pampered in Paradise!

On Tuesday morning we got up very early to catch our plane to the Island of Koh Samui. Even though Bangkok was fun and certainly an experience, we were both rather relieved to be saying goodbye especially to K.S Prison oops- Guesthouse! We managed to get an earlier flight and arrived on this...

Made it to the tourist Island

The journey from Hat Yai to Phuket was 7 hours on a little mini bus which shot along the thai roads bouncing madly as it went. Quite a journey. We got dropped on the side of a road off by a petrol station. Instantly we were being hassled and herded towards a taxi. After a heated discussion due...

It was lovely and the food was gorgeous, plates of beansprouts with tofu and vegetables, stir fried vegatables and a chicken dish with pineapple in a kind of sweet and sour sauce with a bit of a kick. Delicious! Unfortunatley our guide had to hurry us along as time was getting on and there was...

One night stop over

We rose early to catch a bus to make our way into Thailand. After 2 buses and 5.5hrs we got to the Thai border. Now this isn't the usual point that travellers use to cross the border but we made it across fine. We then caught a cycle rickshaw to catch a train (what a great day!). This train...

Shopping, shopping and a bit more shopping!

We are loving Bangkok! It was the place we were both least looking forward to but we've been having a great time, we fly to Koh Samui tomorrow and our time in the city has just flown by! Friday we decided to beat the heat and go to one of Bangkok's many air- conditioned shopping centres.We got...

The Halfway Mark

On Tuesday night we arrived in Bangkok. Wow! What a place! We had been warned but it was still a shock after the peace of Laos! For one thing they've actually got proper motorways, even Vietnam didn't have those I had forgotton what they looked like! It's also strange seeing high rise buildings...
