I'M HERE !!!!!

---

Whoo hoo i'm here !!!!!!!
I had a great flight it was a doubledecker plane and I was on top deck, it was 11 hours and I was too excited to sleep. Off the plane and dodging the taxi touts I managed to find the bus to my hotel. I sat next to a really nice English girl who has been travelling since august, who reassred me I'm going to have a fab time. I got off and found my hotel really easy ( I know !!!) I amazed myself to be honest.

It's a really quaint little guest house with half of the bathroom in the open air. Quick shower then out to Khoa San Road which is the backpackers mecca. It was amazing - I tried my best not to stand out like a rabbit in the headlights and I reccon I did ok. I had my very first Thai food called Pad Thai , it's noodles, beansprouts, a few veggies and egg all fried on a hot plate in front of you .... 50p and fabulous !!!! (I've got a video of her cooking it for me and a photo I'll put on tomorrow)

You have to eat it standing up as there aren't any chairs to sit on, but you do get a paper plate and plastic fork so what more do you want for 50p . Anyway ....... as luck would have it there was a nice german couple who had just started tucking into their grub so I started to have a chat wiht them while we all ate our tea in the middle of the street ......... I lOVe it !!!!

I've been awake now for about 30 hours now and my fingers aren't working properly so i'm going to say night night now 😊

thank you for all your messages it was great to log on and have some waiting

love you all karen xxxxxxxxx
