Hey everyone. Just to make you feel better, we are in sydney and it is absolutley pissing it down with rain. Apparently they have daily thunderstorms. Last night we stayed in our first dorm. Three irish guys, a couple from somewhere in europe, and an obnxious kiwi, i was unlucky enough to get the bunk above him. We went out with some canadian girls and got chatting to a guy from cornwall who has been in oz for a year and last night was his last night, and our fi...

Then we went to the lady boy show which was hilarious. All the dancers have had the snip and some of them have had b...

Hey everyone. We are now in koh samui, it took us so long to get here. First we had to stand on the back of a truck coz there was no room to sit down. Then we got a coach to krabi port and then another coach to surat thani, which took about 3 1/2 hours. Then a ferry which took 1 1/2 hours. And then we had an argument with our receptionist over the phone because we have paid all our transfers but they wouldn't pick us up and so we had to pay for a taxi. Not impres...
