Three and a half weeks down, and three and a half more to go! We spent our last few days in Thailand in the beautiful northern city of Chiang Mai. We stayed in the Old City, which is full of temples and is confined by a canal and brick wall on all four sides. It made for a very nice running path for our 6am runs to beat the heat! One of the main streets gets blocked off in the evenings and taken over by food stalls for dinner. Our new favourite is sticky rice a...

Sorry for the lack of pictures here... More to come soon! We survived our first night bus and arrived in Bangkok in the early morning. Bangkok is incredible. There's always something going on. We have spent a few days here, enjoying the history and lively atmosphere. We took a boat tour through the extensive canal network of the city. It gave us a good look at over forty temples, as well as the home life of many locals. The canals are lined with very old houses...

The full moon party was something else. So much fun! The beach was packed with people from all over the world, all dressed in bright full moon party shirts. It was lined with bars and food stands, as well as some entertainment like the large skipping rope on fire which many people tried to jump through. Lots of loud music, bright lights, body paint, and drinks in buckets all on a beautiful sandy beach made for a very fun party! The rest of our time on Koh Phanga...

Thanks for all the messages and comments from back home! We miss you guys! Hard to believe we're two weeks into our trip already. We just spent three days on Koh Tao, an island famous for it's diving and snorkeling sites. We stayed in a hostel in Sairee Beach, the main beach of the island. It was definitely a different experience sharing our room with eight other people with no running water. The island atmosphere was so cool, and probably our favourite island y...

It's been a busy few days! We took a ferry to Koh Lanta, which was a beautiful island, but there weren't very many people. We stayed in a cute little resort and we had air conditioning! Such a nice change. We tried some local dishes, with Morgan's rice being served in a whole pineapple! We also learnt that it is customary to remove your shoes before entering shops or other people's houses, rooms, etc. and this was highly practiced in our next destination, Khao So...
