We were so lucky when we arrived here at the Dancing Elephant Hostel, as although we had emailed the owner the previous evening enquiring whther we could stay, we hadn't realised he'd emailed us back informing us that as he was going away for a few days that he would be unable to let us stay. But he was a nice man and when we turned up he decided to let us stay anyway : ) So we ended up having the hostel all to ourselfs. It was brillient, we had wii's, unlimited ...

Most of the first day was taken up by travelling. Not very fun travelling at that. It's starting to become a pattern I know.

Well Ko Samui was a complete washout! I can't actually say that I saw anything of this Island. I'm sure it is actually beautifull when the sun decides to shine upon it.

I decided not to go to try and save a bit of monay and as I asked whether the tubing was compareable to the one in Vang Vieng and it wasn't I knew that I would...

So back to Bangkok! We arrived back to the same hotel that we were in the previous weekend, starving hungrey but unfortunately breakfast wasn't included and Candy and I's money was running short. We had just about enough for a taxi to the British Embassy, so we had to have a make shift breakfast from the snacks that we had. We finally got to the embassy and asked for the package that contained my cards in. Unfortunately the email that I had sent to the commision...
