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 [...]

Bangkok to who knows where – Islands revisited!!!

The 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 [...]

Halloween on the Khao San Rd

Our first night at the new hotel proved to be pretty bizarre as it was October the 31st and Halloween night. Oonagh stayed at the hotel and slept as she was so exhausted after her journey to see us – a late night drinking beer and then no sleep as the other hotel was so [...]

Bangkok – staying near the Khao San Rd

We left the Howard Square Hotel in two taxi’s as between us we had so much luggage we almost needed a bus!! It took about 15 minutes to get two taxis organised that would agree to take us the 30 minute journey to the Khao San area. Taxi drivers in Bangkok seem to have a [...]

Bangkok Thailand – collecting Tehya’s aunties

Jon took us to the bus station in Hua Hin, we booked ourselves on to a 12 seater air-con mini bus for 200 Baht each (Tehya was free) – with the exchange rate it cost us about £3.30 – it is very handy as they run every half hour or so. It took two and a [...]

Leaving 5 star luxuary!

01/04/08 We said good bye to the Dusit Thani Bangkok today, it was such a wonderful if expensive experience. It was certainly a fantastic honeymoon, I had not imagined such a stunning hotel with such kind and welcoming staff. We booked our selves onto the Dusit sprinter to Hua Hin and arrived with Jon after [...]

The Journey to Bangkok

Becca woke us up on Friday morning at 8.00am with a cheerful smile and a cup of tea, angel girl that she is. She had also printed off the final documents that we needed but had not had time to print. The last 24 hours were so stressful, with a combination of packing up the [...]

We Have Booked Our Luxury 5 Star Hotel For Three Nights

Having never stayed in a 5 Star Hotel I feel we may be a little out of our depth on the correct etiquette techniques towards our fellow 5 star hotelians. I’m sure we will start to blend in nicely once we’ve had a few sam song whiskies though!!! The site we finally booked our hotel [...]
