We were woken abruptly by a guard telling us that we were in Kuala Lumpur central so in a daze we jumped up, I quickly swapped my bottoms and we staggered off the train. The station was fairly quiet as it was a Sunday morning and not yet six so it had a welcome calmness about it. It was also very strange waking up in a different country without entering or exiting an airport. We headed up to the main terminal and while Steven located a cashpoint I headed to th...

Today we woke very early to a black out as it had rained over night and put out the electricity. We fumbled around in the dark regardless and headed downstairs early to ensure we were present when the mini bus arrived to pick us up. We were travelling to Hat Yai where we would then catch the night train to Kuala Lumpur. Steven had some toast for breakfast but I wasn't hungry as it was far too early so sipped a coffee. The mini van as by Thailand tradition arr...

Today we had an easy day, Steven was up early and booked our tickets to Hat Yai while I packed up some of our stuff and got dressed.

Steven had been doing a bit of planning on Cambodia and trying to see ho...

Steven went for breakfast and I sipped my tea and checked my mail before we hit the pool. The pool was fairly busy with holiday mak...

Last nights sleep had been one of the best we've both had in ages, likely down to the air conditioning. I headed off to 7-eleven for breakfast whilst Laura had some fruit and we both took advantage of the free coffee. We headed down to the poolside area early and perched on a couple of available sun loungers. The heat increased very quickly but it was nice just to chill out and actually feel recuperated for a change.... It was actually like being on holiday. At ...
