I am aware I spelt Bangkok wrong but it wouldn't let me change it so whatever. Ok just to wrap things up. So after the final night in Seam Reap we got up early the next day extremely hung over and got on a bus for Bangkok. Oh my God I have never been more uncomfortable in my entire life. Not only did I feel like s*** but it was boiling hot that day and the bus wasn't air conditioned and we had to keep the windows closed so the dirt from the road didn't get in. It...

Anyway so having got back to Bangkok from Kho Phangan we spent just one night there and sorted out our Vietnam visas, which we later found out that we payed an extortionate amount for! but we are kind of getting numb to all the scams we've had on the trip so what the hey.

Anyway so Phuket, well not quite what I was expecting to be honest, I mean I knew it was going to be ...

So 3 days in Bangkok, pretty crazy place. We arrived Saturday morning and just relaxed at the hostel, then went to china town for some food and cruised around the local area. We were right in the middle of a ton of street markets selling all kinds of useless crap that on another day I'd have been tempted to buy if my bag wasn't so rammed.
