Probably my last blog entry, from Thailand anyway!
I’ve had a really good week here in Koh Tao, after a horrendous journey…The bus I booked kept stopping and actually stopped for around 45 minutes before we were even out of Bangkok, we finally set off again and I got ready to have a snooze when the [...]

Kao San Road/Small World #2

Sunday, 7th October, 2007 | Community News, WatchMeGo | 4

Got to Kao San Road yesterday evening, after a rather pleasant bus journey (compared to the last one anyway!) ,everyone was shocked to hear I had spent 2 and a half days in Bangkok and hadn’t been here, I can see why! It’s stalls the whole way down, selling pretty much everything imaginable, it’s [...]

Just a quick one today, the pc I’m on is being really slow and annoying, and I’m hungry!
It’s been a great few days here, and so good to meet Lyndsey etc., we’ve been having much fun, sunbathing, swimming and treating ourselves to massages on the beach! The weather has been great, especially today, though [...]

Hello,
Left Bangkok at 7 am today to catch the metro to the T.A.T (Travel and Tourism, pic below) office where we were catching the bus to Ban Phe, the little fishing village I was talking about.

After a 2 hour wait a shiny Mercedes mini bus pulled up asking us if we were going [...]

Last day in Bangkok

Sunday, 30th September, 2007 | Community News, WatchMeGo | 3

Well, this is the last of Bangkok for me (until the airport anyway!)! It’s been good! Today Zim was watching the Grand Prix so I decided to go for a wander…….and got lost! I thought I knew exactly where I was, but no! I wasn’t too worried though, I bought some [...]
