Jo's Most Excellent Adventure
Hi folks, how goes things?
Feeling really rubbish over here, got a nasty stomach bug and a mozzy bite on my chin has got infected and swollen up. Generally feeling v run down, guess I've been taken travelling a little too "intensively" and forgotton to chill out - its all caught up with me!! Unfortunately Bangkok is really difficult to chill out in, the music keeps pumping until 2 in the morning and starts again at 9am.....if I hear that bloody Jack Johnson one more time I think I'm going to scream!!!! Updated my room to air con as it was all getting a bit much, see not everything about travelling is all peachy!!!!
Anyways, enough of my moan, sorry sometimes you just need to vent!! Spent the first few days sorting out my backpack, I basically hadn't cleaned it out since I left Pai....so it was kinda gross and smelly! Then to relax myself it was to my favourite past time - SHOPPING!!! Yay! Decided to completely change my clothes, Jack Wills may be okay for British summer but in Thailand you deffo need something a bit lighter!! The market I went to was the Chatachuk market, basically consisting of other a thousand stalls selling everything under the sun, including puppies! I was so tempted to rescue one from its teeny cage, but customs would be a problem me thinks....oh well!
Next day was checking out the "sights" of Bangkok, the reclining Buddha, (awesome) the emerald buddha, (a bit buddhad out by now) and the Grand Palace, (packed full of rude japanese). Still felt I have been a good traveller and seen the local sights and also took a walk around the local streets to get a "feel" for the place. ARGH. So much for resting Jo, I think I need to be tied to my bed so I have to rest. (Though not in a kinky way Miss P, great minds think alike lol.) (N.B. Sorry parents)
Anyway, one more day of Jack Johnson until I go to Cambodia for all things fabulous aka ANKOR WAT.
Oh and the temperature here is almost 40 degrees. Enjoying British spring??? :P
