We got to Ao Nang Grand Inn (and it wasn't very grand) but it was only 4 pound a night so we were happy. It was just a 5 minute walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. The food here was great, one night we had pizza, another we had Thai and another night we splashed out and had a gorgeous Indian. We sunbathed most of the time on the bach because it was so sunny and the sea was lovely and warm. One day we went on a boat trip to the Phi Phi Islands, where we went...

We arrived back in Bangkok at 12 noon yesterday after a 2 hour bus ride (it even had air con this bus), and we had free time. Was going to see the grand palace but ended up falling asleep- we might go there before we fly home instead. We all went out for tea at a lovely riverside restaurant, for our last group meal. Was really nice, me and Adam both had sea food. Afterwards we went down Khao San Road for a few drinks, which was really nice watching the buzzing st...

On the 7th we made our way to a raft house which was amazing. It had a bedroom, chilling area, massage area, sunbathing area, drinking area and eating area.

We had lunch at the downstairs table and then played cards for a while. About 6 o clock we went upstairs where they gave us a sunset dinner, and we could watch the sun...

After catching the overnight train we ended up at a nice hotel in Ayutthaya. We set off on rented bikes to do a tour of the town, which was a lot of fun, apart from the crazy traffic at first. We went to Wat Chai, Wat Mahathat and Wat Phra Si San Phet, all of which are spectacular ruins of temples that the Burmese burnt down in the 15th Century. We both got slightly sunburnt on the bikes. In the afternoon we had free time so we went to the hotel pool and chilled ...

We set off in the morning for an hour until we reached the Northern most town in Thailand but there wasn't really much to see except for the border point and some more stalls selling souvenirs. We then travelled for half an hour to the golden triangle. It is where Thailand meets Laos and Myanmar (Burma). Here we saw a gold sitting buddha and went into the opium museum, which was quite interesting. We then went on a boat trip to a casino on Laos (which is apparant...
