So I've been in Kanchanabury which seems to be for too long. It's been raining most of the time, except for one day which seemed like it would. SO I didn't book any "tours" because of it and missed out that day. Oh well. Today seems fairly well, but still seems like the rain is coming. Hmm, should I book or not? The thing is that it's not just light rain, it's heavy downpours and thunder so you don't really want to be out there in the jungle or whatnot. So I'm still lazing around, doing nothing. Spending money on Internet, massages & coffee.
Met a couple from Holland that are staying in the room next to me. They just came back from a 10 day kayakign trip along the river here... stayed with some locals along the way, asking them for some help (food) as their rations where withring away... well actually they ran out of food... and almost water... got invited on to one of those party boats at 7am, which dragged their Kayak some ways and got to have a good rum & coke with the partyers... Interesting stories, plu swe got to swap stories abotu India as they were there approx. the same time I was. They're pretty much teh only people I have had conversation with over here...
As I was saying in my last blog, I'm staying at the Jolly Frog guesthouse, which is a nice place. The only thing is that the staff there (at the restaurant) have to be the most unfriendly types I've encountered in Thailand. It's my only complaint really about the place, but not a big deal. They have yet to crack a slight smile to me, they pretty much flop the menu on your table when you get there without even looking at you, serve everyone else that came in after you and you still haven't got anyone to take your order, when they do come to take your order it seems like their just gonna tell you: "whatever, go get it yourself..". But I still go in the mornings because they're the only place that I have found so far that have my breaky of choice; muesli, fresh fruit & yogurt, with coffee & fresh guava juice. So, whatever, I really couldn't give rats "derriere". I think it's the "no male genitalia syndrome" when you get bad service there... seems like all the guys there get good service and smiles... LOL
Hey maybe they're just tired and don't wanna be there, I think I'd feel the same way surrounded by mostly annoying tourists all the time. I remember my days working at The Place Next Door when we had all our tour buses coming in... ARGH! LOL
I leave tomorrow I think to go back to Bangkok, so I can catch my flight to Macau the next day.
Uh-oh, I've started looking into info about Working Holiday Visas in Australia... Still churning in my head. Must make decision soon. I think I'll make it when I get to Tits' place, I'll have some time to ponder on the idea of heading out to work again... oh goodness.. work... blah!
Oh and to my mom, family & friends who this applies to... Happy Mother's Day!!
That's it for today, not much happening here...

I hope I do make it there... I'm still on the "we'll see..." point of my decision factors... I know my mom will be saddened by me being away longer than anticipated, but I know she's happy that I'm doing this.. right mom? Even if I should be settling down like some people think because of my age.. LOL.. C'mon man! I'm still young! ;o) I wish you all the best on your travels through Indonesia, I'm jealous right now, wish I was there.. I miss our girl talks! Take care and keep me posted on your travels there. Ciao mi amor!
Steph, it's fine - I know you will end up doing what you need to do, whether is back home or being at the other end of the world. I'll support you all the way. C'est bien entendu que je m'ennuie mais c'est la vie. Comme toi, je prend un jour à la fois. Quant à ton âge, tu es bien encore jeune et la vie t'offrira ce que tu veux en temps et lieu.
Je t'embrasse,
Maman
