Lopburi didn't have much going on. It was pretty mellow with few food options and a few good sites, but we had one of the most memorable experiences with Lopburi's local mafia of gangsta ass monkeys!... read more

On our way out of Koh Samui, Megan informs me that ear infection seems to be still around so I went to a pharmacy where the pharmicist spoke good English and was very informative. He gave us different medicine and Megan can't drink for another 5 days...lol! We caught a truck to the pier, caught a fairy to Koh Pha-Ngan...we wanted to leave Hat Rin ASAP (cause it wasn't our style) and we hit up Hay Yao (after doing a good bit of haggling just to get a ride there). We scored a nice bungalow right on the beach and we were stoked! THE CATCH...at 3am they were playing loud ass club music for like 3 people. The party sounded like it was in our room and the music was the worst.... read more

After like a 14 hour train ride, we arrived to Chang Mai. The train was comfortable and I slept well, but Megan really couldn't cause her ear was hurting her and I guess it was too bright on the top bunk. However, it was cool to wake up riding through the jungles, mountains, and rice fields. We found a guest house upon arrival and after using the internet and screwing around it started raining really hard so I went swimming. At night we went to this big street festival they have every sunday night, which was pretty cool! Day two in Chang Mai, we did some walking around...checked out some temples and such. Their is a buttload of really good vegetarian eateries here so we have been enjoying our food for sure...apparently there is a sect ... read more

Onward we go to Kanchanaburi on a 2 hour bus ride from Bangkok! We scored an A-frame bungalow right on the river for only like $20. The town itself it pretty chill and people seem to be nicer and not as shady. We saw the famous Bridge over River Kwae known from the WW2 era. There also is a place to pet tigers and have your picture taken, Tiger Temple, but there are many reports that, even thought it's a ""conservatory", they abuse and exploit the animals so we didn't want to support that... We also had some amazing food here. ... read more

Okay, so we made it to the land of THAI! The flight was way more roomier and the staff was way nicer. Due to our "vegetarian" status, we get fed first and the food is way better...score! Anyways, we didn't have to worry about lost luggage on the new flight cause we didn't check any fool. So we scored a taxi from the airport to our hotel (guest house), which allowed us to become familiar with the crafty driving of the Thai's...basically, your best off not even looking up or you'll have an anxiety attack. Take the maniacal driving of Tijuana and add the people and urgency of NYC. Also, we were stuck in traffic for at least an hour to go probably like 1 mile. We get out of the taxi to get a nice ... read more
