Not too much to say about samui, it's a bit like Kavos in greece. Good for a holiday but a bit expensive with not too much to do. We did hire a bike yesterday and had a look at the sights of samui (the mummified monk, very strange and a waterfall) but other than that not too much here. actually saying that there are loads (and i mean loads) of european blokes with thai women, yo see a bit of it in bangkok but it's like every third man over here (i don't thin...

Well, we did it. Last time i was saying that Nic may do her advanced. Well she actually did it. How cool is she. This means that when we get to indonesia we can pretty much do what we want, we did 9 dives in 5 days (with a hangover stop in the middle). the diving yesterday was amazing, we went to some new locations and they ewre just stunning. We went to a place and dived 30metres, it's a weird feeling to pass through a thermocline (a body of cold water), i...

Spent another 5 days in bangkok but having been there twice before did very little except get drunk and go to the market with a stinking hangover,i'm never gonna have aother bucket of fun in my life, if you don't knw what it is then it's a half bottle of thai whisky (very potent), a can of coke and a bottle of redbull (it's like syrup, i think it's about 10-15 times stronger). The weekend market is massive, it ...

Arrived here 3 days ago. Got straight into the sight seeing. Saw loads of temples (as usual) but also went to a buddah park, it's a collection of buddah related statues (collected by a bloke in the 50s). Probably the most interesting bit of sightseeing in Laos. Also went to a few musiums which were quite interesting (learned a little bit about laoatian history). They had a mad storm about 2 days ago, it passed in about an hour but once it had gone the place ...
