We're bringing sweaty back.
So... Bangkok. We've done a lot of sleeping... first day we got in late and got to our great (for 13 quid a night) hotel, popped out for some dinner and a drink, then came back and conked out.
Yesterday we had a bloody good look around. Short summary: went to the Grand Palace (huge, amaaazing), down to the MBK Plaza (great lunch), had a look around Siam Square (posh), got the sky train (ace! and very sparsely populated, we think it's a bit expensive for the average Bangkoker), went to the main train station to buy tickets for our next leg, walked back to the hotel, went out for dinner, met our first friend (ahhhhh. A Thai singer named Ricky who was busting out some Pink Floyd and Rolling Stones numbers, I'll try to upload the photo at a later date)... bed. We were completely knackered after having walked everywhere (about 12km in the heat we reckon).
Next leg is down to the islands, yaaaaay! Can't wait to get a tan and just chill out. Think we'll head to Ko Phangnan first and maybe go to the quieter side of the island.

You made it! Yay! I'm so jealous now that I'm back at work, oh and just to make you feel even better I wore my winter coat for the first time today since last winter! Enjoy the sun and the sweat! B. xx
