Spending the night in Bangkok airport was just what we needed after 3 hectic days of shopping in Hong Kong, it wasn’t too bad apart from it being freezing cold because the air con was set too high. We actually envied the Thais who were hanging around the airport because they had come prepared with hats and blankets (no joke!) - all we had were thin sarongs and spicy pot noodles to keep us warm. ...

We saved for 3 years and then went Hoff to travel the world. Chris Columbus and Magellan eat your heart out...do you reckon other people will have already discovered the places we are going to? You bet! About Us Neil, originally from Hartlepool, UK and Donna, originally from the Wirral, UK have known each other for 19 years. We bought a house, got cushy jobs in Nottingham and always had a passion to travel and see what more was out there in the big wide world (sounds corny or what?). The opportunity came when we were both made redundant and given nice r... full info

Ahh well....
....you managed to avoid the dunka dunka music and the dancing zombies. There wouldn't have been much point heading south anyway. There isn't much left after I went at 'aad Rin with my Death Star. Hopefully, we will get the chance to sit and tourist watch with you some time in the future....it would be a barrel of laughs :)

dunka dunka and dancing zombies nowhere in sight!
Thank goodness. We agree it would be a laugh to tourist watch together. We would definitely want control of the Death Star to blast a few places!

Hey!
Nice blog to catch up on your latest Asian holiday! Hope you are both ok. So loved reading about it all, we are so looking forward to returning to that part of the world! It made me laugh about the food bit.. so true and who puts a spring roll in bread... I suppose it's much the same principal as a chip butty?! We feel a bit blessed at the moment as we've discovered a 'real' Thai restaurant in Northampton... the Papaya salad is gorgeous and like you I always ask it for super hot! Take care both of you and hopefully see you in a few months... Dale has his banana hammocks all packed & ready to go! :o) x

Hello Sophie and Dale!
Hopefully we will get to see you when you get back to Asia...although if you are serious about the banana hammocks, we may pass ;) Enjoy the Thai food in Northampton until you can get the proper stuff! x

thai food!
it is seriously the best cuisine in the world! and i’ve never understood why tourists would pay all that money and travel all that way to eat food they'd eat at home and be grumpy at the world? the spring roll in bread with ketchup - fusion cuisine eat your heart out... :)

Fusion?!
Well, in our opinion the fusion of spring rolls, ketchup and bread is taking things a little too far! Now a chip butty is a logical step but not spring rolls ;) We are puzzled as well as to why people would spend all that money to eat food they get at home and be grumpy. Oh well, it gives us something to talk about while people watching!

My boyfriend has never been on a tropical island, and we are currently saving up for all three of us(me, him and our daughter), to go to one. I showed him this photo, so he can see what types of cafe views we can look forward to. I wonder if he will become as much of a travel addict as I am, eventually. :)

Tropical paradise!
Mel, with views like that over breakfast, lunch or just drinks how could he not get addicted to travelling? We are sure your boyfriend will love tropical islands - good luck with the saving!

place stayed on KPN ?
hi Neil and Donna, I am currently in BKK, planning to go to KPN in the next couple days. I am quite curious -- where did you end up staying on KPN that was 550B ? That is right in my budget bracket! I personally believe in going budget with the room, to use the money on activities, travel, and food. Looking forward to hearing from you! THANKS! Chandra
