We have arrived in Bangkok!!! OUr final days in Australia were really fun but we are now in Asia and everything is much cheaper and we are actually experiencing different culture! We landed at 1145pm on Friday the 11th and didnt get into the city until about 2am. We asked the cab driver to drop us off at Koh San Road as we didnt have anything booked. After he tried hard to rip us off, we landed on Koh San... backpaker land.
Litte did we know that it is New Years here in Thailand and it is CRAZY!!! We booked into our Guesthouse and went straight to bed. In the morning we went out for a tuk tuk ride (little taxis that are everywhere in Bangkok) and for 20 baht (about 66 cents) we were taken on an hour long tour of many of the temples and sigths of the city. After, we headed back to Koh San to join in on the various festivities. We each bought water guns as it is essentially the biggest water gun fight I have ever seen. The whole of Koh San raod is blocked off and turns into a pedestrian walkway... everyone and there dogs have waterguns and you are hit at from every angle you can imagine. Within 5 minutes tom and I were completely soaked through and loving our life! We had a great first day although I had a few too many beers and by 7:30 I was fast asleep!!
The next day we went out to fight again however we managed to stay up to 12:30 ish and partied with some fellow Canadians and some dutch people, it was great!
Today we are heading off to Ko PengYang (wrong spelling) which is the Island where Full moon parties started, and we are staying till the full moon which is on the 21st. It should be very fun!! Anyways we'll write again when we are at our next place. Love you all!!! xoxox
