Hello! We are currently on the island of Koh Phangan in Thailand. We arrived here two days ago, after a very long 2 days travelling from Chiang Mai. We got the overnight train to Bangkok, then got an overnight bus and boat to Koh Phangan- two nights without a bed to sleep in was not nice! Anyway, we finally arrived on the island after a very bumpy catamaran journey ( I was sick again). Our hotel is nice- it has an 'infinity pool' which ends nowhere near the sea, but the beach is on our doorstep too. The weather has been really humid but also quite rainy as its still monsoon season here. Have spent most of the days so far chilling out and relaxing.
Last night we went to the famous 'Full Moon Party' (although we nearly missed it because our tour guide in Bangkok- jimmy - told us it was tonight! The party is on the beach, lots of bars and clubs, flourescent body painting and fire dancing. We bought a 'bucket' of vodka and red bull (a whole bottle of vodka) for about 3 pounds! We did some crazy dancing until about 5am, then got a taxi back to our hotel.

We got up at 2ish this afternoon and headed for a big breakfast. Then spent ages on the phone to Barclays who had barred by account for unusual spending activity. Great. Its a bit brighter today so fingers crossed we can top up the tan today.
For the record- I was absolutely fine on the sea cat- a true englishman always has his sea legs!! :)
