From Bangkok To LA
Hello there
Had a nice lie in before the bus journey from hell!!We set off at about 12ish for a four hour bus journey. you could just about 2 people on these seats, and they were meant for 3 people!! It was also about 100 degrees on the bus! We played a clever game though on the bus, the sleeping game, therefore we didnt have to share our seats, it worked!!
We arrived at where we were staying which was on the river which was nice. The rooms were pretty basic, but spent most of the time playing cards with everyone else in the bar. There was a huge white buddha on the side of the hill next to us, he looked pretty scary!!
We left that hotel this morning, and set off on a speed boat, sounds fun which it was for about the first 20 mins but we had 4 hours on it!It started to rain and we got drenched, first time we have felt cold for ages!!
Frank then felt the effects of the night before which wasn't good (think you know what I mean)
After about 2 and a half hours we stopped for lunch at an elephant camp. The elephants didn't look as well looked after as the ones we went on, but you could feed them which was good!
After lunch we were walking through the village back to the boat, and it was Becky's worst nightmare, 2 absolutely huge snakes!!!! Luckily for her they were in cages, but you could pay to hold them. There were 2, one of them was huge, and it would have taken atleast 3 strong people to hold it. The other one was massive as well, but Frank held him and we took photos!It was pretty scary when the snake was bringing is head closer to Franks!! Becky was pretty pleased to be leaving the vilage!
After another hour on the cold boat, we arrived in Chaing Rai.
we all came to the night market tonight, it was wicked. Food absolutely everywhere and so cheap! The best was fried pork which lemongrass-yum yum!!
Definately coming back here tomorrow when Frank's feeling up to food!
On Saturday we will hopefully get some more pics, as we are back in bangkok!!
Going to the golden triangle tomorrow which is cool
Speak to you all soon, and the messages are really cool so keep them coming
