Monday & Tuesday
In the morning Carly had gone to work, so Lauren and I got sorted, packed up our bags and went and sorted her a new phone after finding out it was going to be a lot of hassle to claim it back on insurance. It seemed bad luck for us both to have something happen to our phones in the same week, but at least they are problems that are fixable. We got checked into our new hostel and then got a taxi to the closest cinema (which was paragon), it didn't cost too much in a taxi and then I treated Lauren to it
as a date night after the previous day's upsets and we enjoyed Hunger Games Mocking Jay Part 2. Before the film I'd had an excitable boyfriend and nervous sister on the phone who were boarding their plane to come join us tomorrow. I was really excited and barely slept that night.
Getting up in the morning was hard work. I was full of excitement and nerves and felt so emotional. Lauren and I went for some beauty treatments and then as Lauren waited behind, I luckily stumbled across a group of people who were getting a minibus to the airport so it cost me 100b instead of 500b. I chatted to a couple of people on the bus which was good to calm my nervous, it took about an hour as traffic was so bad and I arrived running through the airport expecting my sister to be coming through anytime soon. It wasn't until an hour and 10 minutes later (and a chocolate milkshake) that she finally came through - passport control had been chaotic. We were both crying and it felt great to have a big hug off her again. About 15 minutes later Nick came through and that was really emotional as well. I felt so happy to be back with them both. They'd both had really bad second flights after being on the first flight together (I'd messed up the booking of the second one - oops) but yeah they were glad I was there to meet them and take them into Bangkok.
We arrived at the hostel, checked them in and went for a little wander around. Lisa hadn't felt very well so she decided to have a lie down and Lauren, Nick and I went on to carry on drinking into the night. Lauren and Nick ate a scorpion (not for me thanks...) and we did some shopping. We then found a nice rooftop bar with some good live music on so had a great laugh there.
Absence does make the heart grow fonder.
