I made it!!

Well I made it to Bangkok, alive and well. My flight was actually really good - i had really good vegetarian food and watched The Other Boleyn Girl and The Kite Runner, and managed a few hours broken sleep. Emily and Dionne were hanging out at the backpackers drinking the worlds strongest cocktails waiting for me so that was really good. They ditched this backpackers in leiu of a nicer place but thier place was full so i've stayed where i booked. It's actually not too bad - got my own room with a window and a door that i can lock. They took me out on the main tourist drag last night which was pretty cool. I had a group of scottish guys buy me a rose while sitting at an illegal street bar which marketed itself by saying 'we don't check ID'. They also had really cheap drinks but i decided not to drink as i knew i'd have the worst jet lag ever if i did. We suddenly had to leave the bar at one point because the cops were coming haha. It's pretty hot here which i quite like too.. and my bag looks much more full now that all the clothes i had on the plane are in it!

Well not much else to report. Off to meet the girls for breakfast and then we are gonna spend the day exploring Bangkok before spending the night on the bus down to Koh Phanagn. I don't think you can message me on this blog but if you wanna write something my email addy is ingrid_jones@hotmail.com.

Much love,
Ingrid
