Rob and Jen bumming round the world for a bit
Anyone know where Wallis is?
Think that's what it said. This wonderfully restrictive site has yet again removed Thailand as a option of where we have been.
Since the last update, we've been travelling around a bit. Well, that is what we're here for we thought, so why not?
We left Chiang Mai the day after my previous update and headed down to Phuket, the largest of the Thai Islands, which lies off the west coast of the country. That day also coincided with Steve's birthday, so after finding someone to stay, we went out and got nicely drunk, playing plenty of Connect 4 in the process (makes sense, doesn't it?).
We hung around in Phuket for a couple of days but decided it wasn't that nice (the overcast weather didn't help), and decided to move on. Though the weather forcast said it would be raining everywhere, we decided to try our luck at some sun on the other side of the country, this time heading to a small island, Koh Toa, a place with a population of only 5,000, as Steve fancied doing his diving course there. We thought we might as well tag along.
Glad we did too, the Island, especially the beach, was lovely. Steve and I even went for a jog down the beach at sunset, very romantic. So, we stayed around for a couple of days, lying on the beach etc., then thought we'd better leave Steve behind and go and sit on a different beach on a different island (well, i can't very well go and do that at home now can I? So why not, I say?). So now we're in Kho Pan Ngan. It's not as nice as Kho Toa (we knew it wouldn't be) but we though we'd come and form our own opinion. It's still pretty nice though.
See everyone at home next week. there might be some sort of curry going on, but not sure 'cus it's Jez's B'day and it might be better to just join him in getting slightly tipsy.
(N.B: Article has been toned down something rotten for any parental types that may be reading, especially that last section)
see everyone soon (unlesss i don't like you, then you'll probably get a message saying, "hey, i've decided to stay away for a million years and become an Monk, so see you later"),
