A long way from Berlin...
Hiya...
Sorry no updates for quite a while...we've been busy lying on the beach trying to get a tan and getting sunburnt instead...
So we're in Koh Samui right now, have been for the past erm...8 days...before that we were in Bangkok, smack bang in the middle of the celebrations for their king whose been on the throne for the past 60 years...they love their king in Thailand. They see him as a great leader as he's always helping the people and not meddling in the politics...fwe were there for the 5 day holiday for him when all the dignitries came to visit, unfortunately this meant that the day we made the trek to the Wat(temple) next to the old palace we couldn't actually get into the palace as their was important people staying there...We'll get to see it when we go back i guess...
So yeah...erm, in Bangkok we got the old run around by a tuk tuk driver but we didn't have anything to do anyway so it wasn't too bad, since then, we learn you say no stops! before you get in...spent a couple of days there wandering the streets eating cheap pad thai 30 baht for a plate (that's a bout a dollar) and killing time before we made it to the beach...
Koh Samui is kind of like a little bangkok, just with lots more scooters, more beaches and lots more sunburnt foreigners.
We went kayaking and snorkelling out at a nearby marine park yesterday which is probably the most energetic thing we've done whilst in Thailand.
Got to run now...
Looking to get home on the 28th of June now...soon soon...
Any last minute shopping requests? send them through!
