hi all, well what a busy couple of days its been you definately cant say bangkok hasnt got charactr and its one of them places you either love or hate, i love it it is just so full of charisma and action there is always something happening no matter what time of the night or day. well i fininshed off my massage course yesterday, the final 3hrs and boy was i aching afterwards - all that balancing over people really gets to you and i felt a bit guilty about causing people pain but thats why they get a massage over here! then i just had a bit of a wander round with what was left of my day, the temperatures quite pleasant about the same as bali but not wet so its nice to just stroll round and get to know the area. today i headed to the grand palace and the emerald buddha, i was gonna get a bus but found out it wasnt that far to walk so armed with my very good and useful map i set off, i got harrassed from about 5minutes away from the palace, people trying to send me to different 'temples' - otherwise known as the great gem scam where people lure you away and con you. anyway i went into the palace and to the emerald buddha, all the good bits you couldnt take photos of as usual but the buildings themselves were beautiful they were so sparkly and big, i cant describe them and the photos dont do them justice but they were lovely it took a good few hours to walk around the place and then when id finished that i headed out for a very late lunch and then walked to the river, i was going to get on a ferry down the river but they looked extremely unsafe - obviously they cant be as so many people use them but i thought id giv it a miss for today and now im online uploading my bali photos and the ones i have of thailand so far. no news other than that and i dont have definate plans for the next 4days, im just taking each day as it comes and enjoying it.
