So i'll carry on from Chiang Mai, so the night of Tiger Temple we ate at the worst resturant, The food was awful, the live music was awful, it was full of middle aged men with Thai women, women used losely, as many of them weren't, so we ate and left. We wandered around the night market which was HUGE, bought some undescript meat on a stick, dumplings and waffles to make up for the poor dinner we had. The following day was adventure trekking. We had to sneak out ...

So we flew back to Bangkok after Vietnam, was so nice to leave one place and arrive in another place with a couple of hours! So we checked back into the beloved Makkasan Inn, who looked after our suitcases while we did our laos and vietnam trip.

We arrived at the hotel which was in Chalok Baan Kao, which was a beautiful bay on the south of the island. The hotel room however was questionable, the third bed was a thin mattress on the floor and the toilet did not flush you had to put a bucket of water down the toilet. So ...
