After what felt like the longest "layover" ever, I finally got on the overnight sleeper train to Chiang Mai. The sleeper trains are pretty nice and I slept really good in the bottom bunk. There wasn't anyone above me until about 2:30 when another solo female boarded and she was in the bunk above me. The train surely beats the bus. I LOVE CHIANG MAI! It's so much better compared to Bangkok. It's the largest city in the north although nowhere near the size of Bangkok. It's so laid back but metr...

I kept my scooter again today and made my way to Wat Umong which was described in my guidebook as a "forest wat with beautiful grounds and unground tunnels" blah blah blah (I made the last part up). It took me FOREVER to find it because unlike most of the Wats, there was no sign in English to help me find it. When I finally made it, I was wholly disappointed. The grounds were nothing spectatular and it was pretty much deserted. I walked around for about 5 minutes and left. Blah. I went to yog...

I rented a motorcycle and made the day trip to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep today. It was a really beautiful ride. I'm so thankful that Terra taught me how to ride. The ride up to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep was great. The road was in great condition and there were 2 waterfalls I stopped at on the way up the mountain. After hiking to the top of the first waterfall I sat on a rock with my feet in the water and just watched the kids playing in the water. The parents had spread out blankets on the grass ...

Today was my day of rest due to the extreme sunburn and blistering. I slept most of the day and waited until the sun went down to leave my guesthouse! While out walking (no motorbike for me today) I stopped at the Wat at the end of my Soi and I talked briefly with a monk there. He said something to me that I can't stop thinking about, he asled me "when was the last time you did something for the first time?". Of course, my answer was "coming to Thailand". But he proceeded to talk to me about ...

... lush, ultra-modern, sparkly white lobby (presumably to subtlely emphasise perfect teeth, who knows?). After doing the paperwork I waited the grand total of a minute before being seen (I arrived 15 minutes early for my scheduled appointment) and again was seen by a dentist who spoke reasonable English. After paying the grand total of 3 GBP for an X-Ray I was told I had nothing to worry about and that it would be better for ...

... he told us this after our
visit. We waited at the gate as the Tigers were lead past us and
into the park before the gate opened and we were escorted in, there
was about 15 tigers of varying sizes from very big to not so big
either way all were capable of taking a leg. We had our photos taken
patting the tigers, just before my photo the tiger moved and the
tiger attendant had to pull it around, which he did by its tail I
don't think the Tiger really liked this and ...
Well, Haf Jones is on her way home and I'm hungover after her last night out, last night so thought it would be a good time to blog on the first 2 weeks of my trip.... Met Haf at Bangkok airport and we headed to our hostel and straight out for food and drinks on the infamous Koh san road.... we couldn't believe how quiet it was and how few travellers were there - we'd heard it was gonna be WILD.... but we put it down to low season and riots.... The next day as we headed out for ...

... Kao San Road zurueck zu fahren. Hier ist der Express Boat Verkehr etwas so gut ausgebaut wie bei uns der Stadtbusverkehr. Sie halten alle paar Hundert Meter am Fluss an und kosten nur ein paar Cent.... echt viel besser als im Verkehrschaos mit all dem Gestank in Bangkok zu stecken. Nun geht es auch fuer uns heute wieder zurueck nach Deutschland. Ein komisches Gefuehl, nachdem man so lange (einen bzw. dreieinhalb Monate) unterwegs war und ...

The coach arrived on time and i caught a cab to Happy Inn again. The cost of the cab was 3 quid, again i was quoted a Tenner by the unmetered taxis at the bus station, robbing *******s!!! I went online at the hotel for a few hours until they had a room ready for me. I was only checking in for the one night as i wanted to head ...

... that he needed to get us soaked. He did a drill where we had to all go to the left side of the boat, and he was supposed to stay on our side. OBVIOUSLY he also moved to the left side and hey presto, over we went. We all sank to the bottom of the river like stones, before bobbing up in a state of shock. At least the water wasn't too cold. My ear was rather less ...
