Well that was an interesting bus journey, not sure why I can't sleep on these buses anymore. I think it was the concern that I realised we must be arriving at the ferry port at 3am and I knew the boat wasn't leaving until 7am. True to form the one time you want a bus to be late it arrives on time, so at 3am we are kicked off the bus and most of us take refuge in the cargo room. We find any kind of blanket or comfy things in our backpacks, lie it on the floor and ...

Bangkok round two, here we go... Koh San road and finding accomondation is like finding Irish people in a bar! Not the case today, we spent ages walking the streets trying to find something half decent and like always the first place we went to was the one we decided to stick with. Anyway with no time to waste we had to book our tiger trip and a bus/boat to Koh Tao all for the following day and fit in a pampering session for Rach as she hasn't felt like a girl fo...

It was a scorching hot day again and the sun was o...

It was nice driving through the rural parts of Cambodia seeing all the workers farming their rice fields, I don't know how they did it by hand in this blistering heat!! With the girls advice to stay in Tomato Guesthouse (a recommendation I to...

Wow talk about corruption..... I don't know who or which side it really is but man trying to leave Laos and enter Cambodia was fully of little extras. Firstly we had to pay the kind man and extra $2 to stamp our passports to let us out of Laos which although we argued ment we weren't getting our passports back until we paid. Then apperently we have to go through quarentine have our temperature zapped which doesn't actually tell you your temperature it just goes g...
