Hello everyone, So on Sunday we boarded the train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. It was a sleeper train similar to the one we went on on the way to Phuket. Luckily it turned out the pervert from the train station wasn't in the bunk next to us much to our relief! The journey took around 15 hours and was a slow and rickety ride.

Hello everyone, So, were in Phuket now! I'll just update you on what we got up to in Bangkok since our last blog... On Friday we moved to the hotel over the road, it was posher but didn't have as much character as the other place. Afterwards we went to the grand palace. Unfortunately it was raining when we got there and we did get pretty drenched. The place is huge and is made up of various temples, statues and other buildings, all of which are beautiful. The t...
