Hello Everyone, Just a little update for you all! At the moment we are in a little town called Pai (pronounced Bye) up in the hills North of Chiang Mai. The town is very cute, but there is little to do except sunbathe, wander around and EAT! Yesterday we went elephant Trekking!!! It was from an elephant camp called 'Thoms' where the ellies are very well kept. We went for a 2 hour elephant ride with no seat, through the mountains. For most of the way Tom sat on ...

Hello all! Sorry for the gap in blogs, (it seems STA Travel has a fickle web-system!). Following on from our last blog, we went on to Bamboo beach in Koh Lanta. This beach was at Koh Lanta's furthest tip and for a good distance there were no roads - only dirt track - and we were in a Sangthaew, which is like an open truck!

We have to admit we did a little shopping today at a brilliant market! Mum and Jaz, you would LOVE it here! Google Orchard Road - It is a whole...

Hello again everyone! We thought we would write to update you further on the happenings here at Patnem! We have been enjoying beautiful weather and long lie ins. It is rare for us to get up before 10! Toms sunburn has now recovered - thanks for the concern! We have made friends with one of the dogs on the beach, who we have named Grouchy, because she is always starting fights with the other dogs! She follows us everywhere, especially to our dinner table! Ther...
