Thani. It took about 13 hours and was a little stuffy but quite comfortable, the toilets however where a touch vile and looked more like some iron clad medieval torture chamber. We then got a transfer on a coach to the coast and then a speedy catamaran to the island Koh Phangan.
We are staying in some bungalows just on the beach, they are quite pretty and we have a huge bed, balcony with some seating and an ace hammock looking out over the sea. There is also a bar that has quite a good selection of food and we tend to eat breakfast down there and have a few nice evening meals.
On the first night Poppy woke me up at about three am shouting me, I then felt some thing run over me. Thinking it was a lizard or snake a hurriedly jumped to get the light on and there it was a big slimy cockroach. After this first encounter we both had a restless night and Poppy got up about eight to go out onto our hammock leaving the door open, I awoke to find a mangy cat tucked up against me and it took us about ten minutes to get the flea bag out of our bungalow.
On Thursday we went to a full moon party on haad rin beach, there was lots of people there drinking and dancing. James got too drunk so poppy had to take him home at half past 12.
Tonight we visited a night food market in Thongsala, they had loads of nice little stalls with lots of exciting different things. There were stalls with what looked like offal soup, whole cooked ducks, braised pig heads we avoided these stalls. Instead we had shrimp Pad Thai cooked by two young
boys(14-16) one had a Radiohead t-shirt on so we thought it must be good and it was. We also had
some fresh fruit smoothies, some weird spiral basil crisp stick and pineapple and chocolate pancakes, it was all really good and mega cheap.
Hope you are well
Love James & Poppy
