... by quite a bit due to traffic so we were told the next boat departed at 4pm. We wonder round the town and buy some snorkel gear, a multi purpose sarong and grab a small lunch. Rob's first taste of bacon since Sydney.<br><br>We reach our quiet and plush resort where we are greeted with cold berry tea. We settle into our 'cottage', shower, then head for the Italian restaurant for dinner.

... cool tricks such as shooting through red lights at 130km/h, over taking on the hard shoulder and literally trying to barge slower moving vehicles off the road by swerving at them. It was a white knuckle ride for three whole hours. By the time we got off I was not only speechless, but making twittering noises and mumbling to myself like something that flew over the cuckoo's nest. We'd actually made it to Ban Phe just in time to catch the 5pm boat. We were in bits ...

... still feeling sick) into the taxi (still sick!) and to the airport. It was the day we were leaving for Tokyo and luckily for me, my stomach was fine by the time the inflight meal came! <br><br>My final day in Thailand unluckily consisted of a lot of sickness and feeling very exhasuted and tired by it. However this country is amazing and quite easy to travel around whilst pregnant. Perhaps leave it until after your 12 week scan and give your hormones ...

... us... Vicki and Beckham! They live up to their names- Victoria is very friendly, though quite snooty, loves attention and the occasional sly biscuit and Beckham a little stand offish, a bit thick and wears pink!! We made a friend on the boat over - a New Zeland guy called Dave, nice guy so we've spent the last 2 days with him. Getting drunk on long island ice tea buckets, playing lots of cards, drinking local whiskey ...

... mile or so. This is all done to ask the sea for a good year and good luck to each family. We purchase one of the "comloy" in which you write you thoughts on the it, light a paper circle on the bottom of it which burns and fills up the paper box kite with hot air so that it will float away. The sky was filled with 20 to 30 of them at a time and fireworks in the background, it looked fantastic.

OK, maybe I was a little hasty, but I am still sick, which sucks. And its been raining buckets since last night. I screwed up and booked the motorcycle for three days when I'm actually here for four, so I had to drive the thing back to the pier (15 miles) today while it was pouring. Really, white knuckle driving, especially on the hairpin turns when it simply does not feel like it is possible that ...

... to put more detail to events, but sadly left my memory in the bottom of copious bottles of Chang beer. Off on a tour round the little Islands round Ko Chang tomorrow, and have to get up at 7 !! Yes 7 ?!? So early night is a must ! Love to all Mike

... I felt a little strange. It seemed like a long nap, so I checked my watch. 11pm!! Holy ****! So we got up after a lot of laughter and headed down to the bar / disco. We ate some noodles (our dinner, lol) and had some beer. Dance, dance dance and around 2am walked over by the TV to watch the World Cup soccer game. At half time we talked with the guy sitting next to us. He was German, and Germany ended up winning ...
