Hello,
We didn't get to write anything yesterday, we got too drunk to even know the time. So let me tell you what we can remember of our crazy first day.
Well firstly the flight from Vienna (which I thought was in Italy) was horrible. We didn't get to sit together but that didn't matter because we thought we would sleep the whole flight. But we had a crying baby next to us that wouldn't shut up, Chris kept getting bumped every time someone walked by and when we did manage to get some sleep, I was woken up by a really annoying man taking photo's of everyone on the flight! The flash was so bright, it was pitch black and everyone was sleeping, what the hell was wrong with him? I complained to the stewardess in the end and he stopped.
Later my coffee slid off my tray soaking me and the lady next to me. I could hear Chris behind giggling away.
At that moment I thought of my friend Paula. "Excuse me stewardess, my tray is broken" which made me chuckle to myself lol.
Oh well it was still worth the extra money.
We got to Bangkok, Khaosan road at about 16:30. The streets were littered with food stalls, the different smells were amazing, we couldn't wait to try everything. But first we had to find a room. We wanted a cheap room so we thought if it looks nice it's too expensive. If it looks grubby it will do. We quickly found a place and checked into our room. First thing Chris noticed was a cockroach run under the bed. We didn't mind though. Maybe we could eat him later lol. Our room is nothing like the 5* luxury which we are used to. But we like it. It has a toilet, cold shower, two beds, and a fan. And the mould around the room gives the place character. Not bad for only £6 a night!
We went straight out for dinner and started drinking. From then it was kind of blurry. We ate meal worms, crickets, frogs, grubs and some big arse bug we don't know the name of from a street vendor. We got talking to a couple and the next thing we knew, it was 1:30am! We moved onto buckets of whiskey, we lost the couple and went clubbing until 6am.
We got lost trying to get home, we both got stressed out as we wobbled down the hot busy streets. We had our first argument as we disagreed on which way to walk. Both thinking we were right, it turned out we were both wrong and kept walking in circles and ending up at the same white bloody wall! Eventually we made it home after asking for directions.
So that was yesterday. Today has been a lot more chilled out. We were woken up by the cleaner at two in the afternoon! We have no watches and no daylight in our room so we had no idea of the time. All those smells I liked yesterday were now turning my stomach. Chris bought a watch today and I bought donuts :-)
Tomorrow we are up early and heading off to Kanchanaburi.
Charlotte & Chris
