Phuket 11th May - 18th May (Day 69 - 77) Hi Everyone Hope all is well, we've been in Phuket now for 7 days with one more day left.. booo. not looking forward to hostels again.. It's been lovely here, the weather has been gorgeous and we didn't have to worry about it being monsoon season here. I think we've had a couple hours of rain the whole time. We haven't been up to much, just lazying around by the pool, the beach, and watching DVDs. This is definately th...

KanchanaburiMay 8th - 10th (Day 65 - 68) Hi everyone, From Ayutthaya we picked up a minivan to Kanchanaburi. We headed to a guesthouse right on the river Kwai and managed to get a raft room. This is basically a normal hotel room but it is floating on a raft on the river, which is really cool....unless you are Tina and get sea sick looking at water, let alone living on it. To be fair she did quite well, the only times she felt sea sick was when a speed boat went...

AyutthayaMay 6th - May 7th (Day 63 - 64) Hey there, Another 5 hours on a bus and we get to Ayutthaya.

We hopped in to a waiting taxi and arrived in ...

Sukhothai4th May - 5th May (Day 61 - 62) Hi Everyone! We arrived in Sukhothai after 6 hours on a bus from Chiang Mai.

GI Joe followed by Step Up. We got here late afternoon so spent the evening exploring the new city which is tiny. There are about two streets and about 5 restaurants al...

Chiang Mai (Day 57 - 60) We've finally made it outside of Loas.Chiang Mai is a city that doesn't feel closed or claustrophobic it has quite a nice feel to it, though at first it reminded Chris of being in tenerife - a strip full of westerners, western restaurants. We've spent a couple of days shopping, unfortunate for Chris. They have a night Market everyday and since we arrived at the weekend they shut off a couple of streets and turn then into a walking Marke...
