Good afternoon from ko phi phi and good morning to the uk. This blog is an easy one to write just purely in connection with the pictures as the place could be associated with a paradise island. The day (Friday) started with a trip from Phuket harbour to get a 2 hour boat trip over to ko phi phi. The boat looked one of high quality and large in size, unfortunately the one that pulled up was not ours, you had to walk across it to get onto the one behind which pret...

As I write this I can see a nice derelict like wall from our hostel window, a room with a view if you please but yet this somehow sums up Phuket.

I hope if heather, Steve or my parents read this then will appreciate t...

We had to get alot of the admin stuff done this morning and we now have flights booked for Phuket on wed 16th, we have...

Good morning and good evening, I'm writing this blog on Thursday 11th having to now catch up on a further 2 days but both of these days have been an absolute pleasure. Instantly felt at home in chiang mai, from the small drive to the airport and being dropped off at our hostel 'Thai pai garden', Tina and I have felt instantly relaxed and at home. We arrived around 10am and quickly dumped bags again, I think Tina was pretty made up the hotel had a small pool all ...
