After a s***ty flight due to turbulence and me winding myself up about it all and eventually making Scott nervous, we were glad to land on Thai soil! Immigration was easier than we thought, got a little wound up because we were told we would have to either book something to show we are leaving the country before our visa expired and that they're really tough on you, well if they're anything like the US they'd be close to having me in tears because they're mea...

We can't believe how fast eye the last four weeks have flown, and how much our persona has changed on South India; we aren't scared to cross the street anymore or barter extremely low prices for tuk tuks and clothes. Although the horns we will never get used to I don think, they always make us jump! Yeah, I had experienced it before but you do loose your touch I think!

Moving day, again! Onwards and further downwards to Varkala! Only 100km from the most southern part of India now, it's a shame that's it's so difficult to get there by bus and train, we would have made it there! I think another off putting reason is that for four days oat the end of the week we have to catch one train, three flights, one bus and a ferry to get to our Christmas destination; so another two days of long travelling this week will be a little exhaus...
