Not much report from Pai. Its most chilled out town ever. They even have t-shirts saying 'come to Pai do nothing' !

Its great but. All we do is go for drives into the hills or mountains to waterfalls or hotsprings. I did go fishing again the other day and caught a big piranha and a catfish- some fight off them. I kept the piranha and we cooked it last night on a barbeque. Not much of a taste of it, a bit like brown trout me thinks.

Nearly forgot, I did the Thai boxing training last week. Fecking hell the most difficult exercise Ive ever did. They push u that hard some people end up being sick! Good though I wanne do it again but Ive been too lazy here.

Trying to stay off the drink is hard here too since everyone goes out every night, starting in a place called Re-tox (that says it all) - good House music there, When that closes at 12 a pick up truck takes us on a pub crawl around the late bars - crazy! Alot of drum and bass over here.

I think Im leaving Thailand on thur or fri for Laos. Ive met 2 girls from Kildare, another irish lad and a guernsey fella. We're all going together. Its a 3 day trip down the Mekong river - should be good craic.
