We started our journey back towards Bangkok yesterday with a bus to Chiang Mai. This only took 3 hours again, which wasn't too bad! We had hoped to do something with another day in Chiang Mai, but instead got our bus tickets to Sukhothai and slept! We were going to turn up at the bus station and get our tickets on the day, but ended up getting them for a little bit more from a tour office in town. It was worth it though, as we had been planning to get to the bus station for around 8, but when she phoned to book our tickets there was no availability until 12.40, which would have meant a lot of sitting around for us! Instead we went for the early 7am bus.
This meant we were up early and at the bus station for 6.30. The bus left on time and made it to Sukhothai for 12.30, which I didn't think was too bad. We got in a songthaew and went to our guesthouse where we had planned to dump our bags and head to the historical park for the afternoon. As we were getting our stuff sorted I realised I couldn't find me phone. I went out to reception to see if I had left it there and when it wasn't, I realised it was probably in the songthaew. So far I had managed to contain my stress at losing my phone but realising I might not get it back I started to panic a bit! Then the lovely lady from reception came to our room to say the driver had called and would be coming back as soon as he could with my phone! I am so lucky!
This meant our original plan to go out for afternoon got put to one side, but we had some nice lunch and a bit of a chilled walk around town. There isn't a lot here but we are staying somewhere with a nice outside area for sitting in.
We are going to get up early and see the historical park tomorrow instead and hopefully get back in time to get tickets for radio ones big weekend!
