Woah got off the planes after a resonobly uneventful flight and was hit by a wall of humdity. I've been in my fair share of saunas but at the moment I'm living in one permanantly!
I started off my getting lost between the airport and the hotel, not the best start I admit but at least it gave us a chance to get our bearings and take an unplanned tuk tuk ride. That night we toom a strole throught the market bought some tees and turned out a lot of people tring to sell us suits, ping pomg shows and more suits. ( I had been warned about the suits but didn't realise everybodywould be trying to sell them, but more on that soon. I also spoke to some Thai kids who were skating in the street, they were so happy and friendly but I have no idea what they were on about!
The next day we set out for the Grand temple but got sidetracked but a man whom we really thought was on the level- He told us to check out two other temples before the Grand Temple because the Grand Temple didn't open till 1 pm (this was actually bullshit). The temples were of the standing buddha, reclining Buddha and lying Buddha, all of which were great. The first chap as well as the guy at the temples then recommended we see the fashion market. This wasn't a market at all but a shop to buy suits. Like the suckers we are we all bought suits, but now we all have suits and for $200 Australian I think we did pretty good. By the time we had done all that we were hungry so we headed back to the hotel for lunch. Like clockwork as soon as we had finished the heavens opened up and forced us back into our rooms to upload photos, check email and blog... that more or less brings us up till this point. Tonight we're hitting Patpog road and all of its vices, tomorrow the ruins of Auttuya (not the correct spelling but I can't be bothered looking it up right now)
See you round like a record!
