Wedding Anniversary 04/02/09
Today we celebrated our first wedding anniversary.
We are not the kind of couple who put a lot of effort into these kind of anniversary dates!! We don’t celebrate valentines day and our original anniversary – our first date we celebrate on the 1st April (conveniently April fools day – which is something that makes us [...]
Hanna’s Birthday 31/01/74 – 35 today!!!!!
I had a lovely day to day – I was woken up by a very excited Tehya, who rushed into our bedroom at 7:00am with my gifts from her and Gavin. She was so happy and pleased with herself as she had helped choose the gifts, wrap them, managed to write in my card all [...]

Visa run – the story!!
We bought our train tickets a few days before we were due to leave Hua Hin for Malaysia but we hesitated getting a return ticket because we were not a 100% sure how long the trip/ visa process was going to take us.
Jon gave us a lift to the train station to catch the 18.24 [...]

1. Laos: Vientiane
You pay about 1500Baht each just to enter Laos [...]
Hua Hin – Change of plans and house search!
We got back to Hua Hin with a feeling of cheery familiarity – we were not able to go straight to Jon’s house as we had planned, he still had another guest staying. Jon came and picked us up from the bus station and took us to a local guest house, dropped us off to [...]

Bangkok – Laptops and Barricades
We spent four nights in Bangkok – two at the Green Hotel and two back at the Villa Cha Cha.
The two nights at the Green Hotel were pleasant enough, the hotel rooms were very basic (a little prison cell like) but clean – the restaurant downstairs did pretty good food (mix of Thai, Israeli and [...]
West Coast Journey – Ranong to Bangkok!
We booked our tickets off the island through a local agent, realising they would be a little more expensive but we wanted to ensure that we had our tickets in advance – not wanting to get stranded any where late at night with Tehya.
The boat off the island is a flat rate of 150 Baht [...]
Koh Phayam – West Coast Thailand
first heard about Koh Phayam from Bee – my dads (Hilary) sister. Bee visited Koh Phayam several Christmases ago with my cousin Ned. The story went:- that Koh Phayam was one of the last tourist discoveries and was therefore much like some of the other now popular islands were 15 or 20 years ago. [...]

Very limited internet i.e we need to take a motor bike taxi a few miles to get access to expensive satellite internet. We should be back in communication by the 16th December [...]

Ranong – The Journey
After we said goodbye to Becca the previous evening we went out for a late supper with Tehya – we were all feeling pretty despondent. After a quick meal we went back to the room to encourage Tehya into bed…. it always takes a while to settle her now (the evening before we travel). She [...]

Phi Phi town – Thailand!
avin and Becca got a long tail boat to the main part of Phi Phi town and did another quick search for accommodation. We had decided to split up – Oonagh and I stayed to complete packing and look after Tehya as the constant search for accommodation was starting to make Tehya unhappy and clingy. [...]

Long Beach – Koh Phi Phi
We walked to the bungalows that Gavin had found on Long Beach and were told they had the cheaper roomsvailable a few rows back from the beach. I can’t remember the name of the resort but it is towards the left hand end of the beach (not right at the end!!) if you have your [...]

Bangkok to who knows where – Islands revisited!!!
he five of us spent our second day at the Villa Cha Cha trying to decide where to go next in Thailand – our initial idea had been to go to an Island off the west coast called Koh Phayam. We had little information about it and most of what we had read said that [...]
