petronas Petronas towers was the tallest at one stage, it also has a huge ball(s) at the top to stable it from earthquakes.
more we learn the more we know.
MBK Rules I love MBK so I thought I would share a little trivia. MBK stands for Maboonkrong and is named after this billionaire tiny japenese man Mr.Ma and his thai wife Mrs.Boonkrong
Ah thank you.
Have you gone to the night bazzare yet? Try the fish balls (balls of fish)!
Phuket HEY HEY!!
Where abouts are u staying in Phuket? i loved it there! many a day was spent on patong beach, getting annoyed by the locals trying to sell u things! enjoy, x
Phi Phi Islands Hi Dan,
Phi Phi islands def a place to see. But try not to drink too much before you get on the boat because it can be quite a rough ride and not good with a hangover....trust me!!we travelled down to Phuket on an overnight train - alot cheaper than a flight just mind that u dont get ripped off and have get a seat, like we did! Thai's get on and off the train over this 12 hr (i think) trip and sell food and such like down the aisles, so you still cant get away from the constant selling. From Phuket we went on the boat trip around the phi phi islands and stopped off at Maya bay (filmed in 'The beach') it is sooooo beautiful there. and also monkey island to feed them bananas! Keep on enjoying Thailand...... Claire x
brilliant Hi Daniel, you tell such a good story, please keep on telling us all your experiences!! Bangkok is amazing, but the hassling does get on your nerves alot, your doing the right thing by ignoring them. Khao san road is brilliant, have u been down there at night yet? me and fran sat out side one of the bar counters in the street and had a lot of cocktails out of a bucket! a happy night was had!! haha. wheres the next stop? x
mum returning message Hi Dan,
I assume you are getting our return messages?
It sounds as if you are having a very different experience to anything you have ever had before but thats what its all about, just take care and be
careful, it willtake you a while to get used to what not to do and where not to wander to and remember you stick out to them like a sore thumb:
how is that toe by the way?
Not much to report from this end I'm afraid . Suzy is driving us balmy at the moment, will not sit on that bloody poofy and sits outside your bedroom door making that moronic noiseshe does so well, up 3 times in the night to go out , so that is great fun but I'm sure she will settle down eventually.
What is the actual temparature wit you? It is still miserable as sin and drizzly here - the great british summer then -nothing changes!
Well I am goiung to hand over to dad now,take care and look forward to hearing again soon.
lots of love
mum

555555 get used to the heat?? not a chance...it would take you 6+months to get adjusted....get out of Khao San backpacker hell and see some of the real city.
check out Thonglor (Sukhumvit soi 55) for some cool shops and restaurants and tons of rich hot thai girls
Bloody farangs The Line about " why didnt you tell me that in the first place" while in customs was classic Thailand mate.
Wait till you get to China they won't even look at you, never mind give you wrong information.
Trip of a lifetime mate, very jealous.
