Hey guys,

Only a quick email as its only been a few days, but we are leaving Bangkok later to head to Chiang Mai for a couple of days to go on a trek! The trek is three days in the outback, elephant riding, bamboo rafting and sleeping in huts!!

We have been in Bangkok 4 days and have mainly been exploring the local bars! We have met some amazing people, locals and travellers. We have made a couple of friends which work at a bar that we have regularly been visiting so have been clubbing lots with them after they finish work! We decided on day 2 of Bangkok that we would go T-Total after a night out on day 1 but by day 3 we were back on it! It did not last very long!

We did venture out to see a museum this morning walked an hour to get there, but did not feel very well (slightly hungover) that we got a tuk tuk back, which made us feel even worse! On the way we saw a huge lizard which looked half eel and half crocodile! Then a second ago saw the biggest spider of our lives running along the wall! Hopefully we wont see many more animals on the trek!

We also went to the Grand Palace all the buildings there are so beautiful, but we really missed Ricky (tour guide) to inform us!

Bangkok is our mid point in Thailand so we are going to do the tourist things when we come back from Chiang Mai.

Its so hot and humid here, we have heard that the wether is not so good in England, not to rub it in!

Sending loads of love
