Last night once we had got back to our room from Skyping the famalam and grabbing some good, Kara discovered a tiny little lizard on our floor, so it now became my mission to catch him and put him outside. This was done with a glass and some paper (dont worry all you crazy animal lovers, he was not harmed during this!) He was pretty easy to catch but just a pain to set free, he clung to the side of the glass for a while before he lept for freedom. Obviously we ha...

So we've arrived on our little Kesam Island resort and its very peaceful and quiet, we ate here last night an the food was great, there beer was a little expensive but we have no other choice than to get a boat to the main land and go in search of some food which is a tuk tuk or taxi ride away.

So as much as I didnt want too, James insisted on taking me on the back on the moped (mopeds are not my friends, refer to earlier blogs) to be fair its so much quicker and easier but I do fear for my life now. Although James does a good job a getting us there and home safely. It took about 45 (long) minutes to get there ...

Today was our day of freedom away from the zoo So we thought we would have a leisurly day and go visit a cool temple. I also took my moped back this morning, I hate bumbblebee :/ So I got on the back of James's instead, the ride was cool and we saw some weird grave things at the side of the road (pictures in the album!) The temple was called Wat Bam Tham and the entrance was a big dragon's mouth, awesome! Apart from we thought would be a leisurly day turned ...
