We were early off the coach around about 4am and hardly had any sleep. We both sat ourselves and our bags down on the floor as all the seats had been taken up, it was busy here this time. We started talking to a guy called Pat and two girls called Haley and Tash. Later on a second guy called Paul joined us, he had been sleeping. They all seemed like nice people and throughout the hours of waiting it was nice to have the company. We chatted about where we live, wh...

We arrived in Hua Hin feeling nautious. The night out the before had nothing to do with it, it was the fastest bumpiest ride in a mini van ever. We met John and Diana on the mini van.

We got to Nancy's house at 9:40 and chose our dis...

We bought some souvenirs for people and little bargains for ourselves.

Monday we just bimbled about until our bus b...
