Hi everyone! Since leaving Phuket we have been to Bangkok. We had a great time, the city has a lot of atmosphere. We really enjoyed picking up some souveniers from Khao San Road, bartering with the locals was always lots of fun. My favourite day, was when we visited the Grand Palace. It is a massive complex of ornate statues and buildings including the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Every building is mosiaced with gold and mirrored tiles, the effect in the sunlig...

The city is absolutley beautiful. Kayleigh did the harbour bridge climb!! Which ofcourse I did not. We went to the botanical gardens which are so pretty, and have loads of wild cockatoo's and massive fruit bats. Not to mention the scary looking spiders! We took a ...
