Our days in Bangkok so far.... Well from the minute we arrived we pretty much fell in love with the city. We've heard so many bad stories about the capital that we were preparing ourselves for the worst but its great! We're staying on what could possibly be the best road here - Khao San Road, which is a backpacker's mecca and holds the best street market we've been to! Day and night the market runs, selling gorgeous clothes, lanturns, bags, shoes, fruit...

The old capital! The day started rediculously early as we had to be fed and ready to go by 7am! Our breakfast consisted of Mac D's fries and coke, sacriligious I know, not to mind very unwanted at that time in the morning! After a few hours drive we arrived at the first Wat (Im going to tell you now-we cannot for the life of us remember any of the names of the places we visited that day, so for now it will be 'Wat 1'.)

So yes that night we went shopping around the stalls along the main street, and had dinner in a nice French place where on the front of the menu we were informed that the...

Hey, Aren't I doing well today, 2 postcards in one day! The reason? Abissmal weather! We weer supposed to go on a boat trip around Phi Phi Dom (where we're staying-the main island) and Phi Phi Lay (the smaller island, still mostly untouched-includes Maya Bay where the film the Beach was filmed, and monkey island close by where wild monkeys roam the shores being cheeky and fun). This and a whole lot more was supposed to be rounded off today with a view of the...
