This is our last day in Phutek and we have to get up really early in the morning to get the bus to the train station (5 Hours) and then to wait for the sleeper train (god bless the sleeper train!) to take us back to Bangkok. Day & overnight in Bangkok then off to airport for Aussie. Den not looking forward to the travelling but sure once we're on the move she will love it! Getting excited about Australia and think it will be completely different to here. Don'...

The picture is our destination and where we are now - it shows the cruise boat anchored out to sea and the whole view is beautiful. Calm, peaceful & very hot.

Den has got to the stage that when I say I am going to do my thing (computer) she pretends shes asleep when I get back! Anyway after today things should be better and it seems as...

Went of shopping to buy some clothes as we are getting quite desparate and smelly! It turned into quite a farce. Den wanted to buy a bra as she wasn't happy with the ones she brought. Well in turns out to get a 40 DD is completely impossible. The average size is 32 A/B and the biggest size was 36 !!! Clothes are average 6/8 Enormous size is 12! Doesn't do much for your ego!!
