here now. its thursday - 538 pm. (8 hours ahead of you) and HOT. so so so so so hot!
got here all fine-no sound or sight of any trouble at all - its fine. our room is clean which is nice so its all good.
had a little walk round earlier this morning but it was so hot and muggy we had to come back to our air con room - just about to head out again now. massive thunderstorms last night.
everyone is nice here. locals can speak good english. everyones trying to scam you to sell you a tour or some horrible tat but its cool, we are well aware how to deal with that. 'Mai chai' = NO!! : )
You can buy everything on ko san road! a tailored cashmere suit? deep fried cockroaches? a picture of you with an iguana on your shoulder? hmmm no!
met some cool people so far - soo many tourists around, brits, americans, french, german, spanish - the lot.
leaving here sat morning to catch a 10 hour train to lampang. which will be cool. more rural and will get to see some scenery on the way. a city is a city at the end of the day. bangkok is dirty, smelly and full of stray animals and scammers! hmmmm. very excited for lampang, will be visiting the elephant sanctuary on sunday.
