Amy's Travels 2006
Today was a day from hell......
We got the overnight train from Surat Thani to Bangkok. There were not many spaces left on the train so I sat in car 3 while Tasha and Rhia took seats in car 1. What could go wrong with that eh?
Only 2 cars away I hear you say? Well.... that's also what I thought as I sat through 9 hours of broken sleep on my own.
Any way it was 5 am in the morning, the train was due to arrive in about 20 minutes and we arrived at a stop. Most of the Thai people on the train got off. I thought 'not the end of the track so I'll stay here' but had a sneaky suspicion my co-travellers might not be so sharp. Looking out the window I hoped I wouldn't see them standing on the platform... but as I somehow had predicted they decided to follow the crowd off the train and it began pulling away. NIGHTMARE. They had got off 2 stops before the main train station!!!!!!
So I got off at the next stop to find them.. and they had gone to the main train station to find me.. oh god it was a bit crap but finally I found them. I would like to think it was not me in the error in this situation... some may argue it was but retail therapy and the promised Thai massage I am going to have this evening has somewhat calmed my shot nerves. After no night's sleep and 5 am in Bangkok, I am not in the best way today but her....
Any way hopefully next story will be a bit better!!!!!
