Hello all,
Hope everyone is OK. We are currently in Koh Samui chilling out on the beach. We had about four days in Bangkok before this which perfectly coincided with the Songkran water festival at Thai New Year - Four days of water fights and powdered clay throwing! We were soaked from the moment we stepped off the coach. It was a great laugh though. Our camera has been slowly dying a death so we decided to splash out on a new one which is waterproof. Good job too. We didn't see any trouble or indication of the rioting that had taken place the week before. To be honest, most of the locals looked to leathered to be concerned with politics. There were a few dudes driving around in red shirts looking a bit ugly and upset, but I assumed they were utd fans after the Chelsea game (well, they are the right distance away from old trafford).
Anyway we have decided to head south to the islands for a bit of relaxation and beach time. We have been on Ko Samui fro about 4 days and have done....well, bugger all apart from laze on the beach and eat lots of nice food. Just what we needed after all the Cambodian and Khao San rd madness. We have a nice little hut only the beach, 20 yards from the sea. Tomorrow we are heading to Koh Tao to try a bit of scuba diving and hopefully some fishing. After that we are going to Koh Pha Ngan for the Full Moon Party on the 28th. That leaves us with a week to get down to Singapore where we will probably find out our flight back is cancelled because of some Icelandic volcano.
love to everyone!

Hey Nat!
ReplyDeleteThat's fantastic news, congratulations to both of you and we wish you loads of love. Hope everything goes OK and let us know how you are getting on. My maths isn't great but I guess the little one won't be putting in an appearance until we get back next year so will definitely try and see you when we get chance. Take care and take it easy! make full advantage of that seat on the bus!
Loads of Love
