Elephants monkies and waterfalls, oh my! Today was one of the best tours we have done by far! We started out the day, walked up a platform, and boarded an elephant. Our guide sat on its head, and we sat in a little box on its back as it trekked us through the jungle. Not the fasted means of travel, but cool to see her try to eat everything in our path. Then the elephants put on a little show for us, a bit of yoga, soccer and basketball. And I got ...

What a Journey!! We tried to sleep on the train but this was harder than i thought - the Game Boy and IPOD were helpful for me. There wasnt any room for my bag on the floor so i opted to sleep with it - as i am sure you can picture this didnt leave much room for moving and when the train turned, i and the bag almost fell off my shelf of a bed. Once the train journey was done we were ushered onto a bus and then an hour later onto a ferry. 4 Hours later we g...

Well we pakced up after only a few days and headed south to Hua Hin, this was done in quite a comfy, air conditioned mini bus (no need to rough it if there are other options!)

One word for everyone H O T!! Believe it or not in Hong Kong Kate looked like she had picked up a cold, since we landed last night until today it def looks to be clearing-i think i am sweating it out for her. Bangkok doesnt disappoint, it is exactly as you imagine, the films/books stories sum it up well and it is hard to get your head around how cheap it is. I mean even the mini bar is cheap! The temp is rising to 37 today so i will see how well i get on wi...

Well we went to visit one of the worlds biggest buddhas, and did some more sightseeing in Hong Kong. We left the peak until the last day as it was a last ditch attempt for good weather and wouldnt you know it, it was the clearest day yet! Check out the photos, its strange to think as you are at the top of the hill the prices go up and apartments of about 4000 square foot costs tens of millions. (pounds!!) The weather is set to turn worse so we are getting out ...
