Good Afternoon my dear friends. So I decided what to do with myself during my week off, New York? Rome maybe? and then I looked at the prices... my god travel wasn't like this in my day... I remember (here we go) when you could get to New York for £150 return - heehee I am so turning into my father. Anyhow, I decided to skip the huge flights and asked my wonderful Aunt and Uncle if I could come visit them for some chill out time. They own a lovely Bed and Bre...

So its departure day - how depressing? We left at 4.30 am, caught a boat to the main beach and then a cab to the ferry, where we sat in the back of a pickup truck and drove the windiest streets ever! We saw the most dreadful thing too, someone obviously got on their moped a little the worse for wear and crashed it into the side of a cliff. We couldn't stop the taxi though, and felt really bad.

Well we couldn't get into our resort when we arrived due to strong tides t...

So our time in Samui is coming to a close now. Its not been the most amazing Island I have ever been too, but it certainly has its memories.So from the last update, well we have adopted Alice - which would've been a great thing, if Stewie boy hadn't fallen head over heels in love with the poor girl! Yes - how awkward has that been? I'll get back to that later.We have hired a jeep for 2 days while here, and cruised around the Island - seeing the temples, Buddha st...
