Hi Everyone!

We have tried to put the pictured on today but the internet is very slow here and it takes forever to upload. we will try again tomorrow at a different internet cafe and hopefully it will work.

We have had an interesting few days here in Bangkok. We have quickly got used to the noises and the smells that come with it! Last night we met up with some friends and went to a few bars around Bangkok. We also ate some bugs! Chris had a locust, a cricket and two types of maggot!! I only had a small maggot! They tasted a bit like Wotsits, but i wouldnt recommend them! It was definately something to remember though!

Today we took a trip to a huge shopping mall called MBK which was far too big and disorganised! Then we went and took a tour round Jim Thompsons house. He was a US importer of silk who had a house in Bangkok and went missing in 1959. Lovely scenery and very interesting. We are now back in Khao San Road trying to sort out pictures but failing! Tomorrow we are heading west to the River Kwai.
