Prisoner Cell Block H!
THAILAND | Wednesday, 5 September 2007 | Views [421]
Checked out of our mansion hotel room and then sampled our first Starbucks of the trip. Spent a stressful half hour in an internet cafe trying to find hostel accommodation on Khao San Rd, and eventually gave up and booked a YHA in another part of town. The website bigged hostel up to be one of the best in Bangkok, but on inspection we would dread to think what bad ones were like! We helped the bloke who was painting the stairs by Chav accidently adding finger prints and Lou scraping her rucsack and trousers against the walls! Our room is tiny but is clean and alledgedly has air con! Went to see Jim Thompsons house ( a tourist attraction) but it was shut so got taxi driver to take us back to Khao San Rd area for more of the traveller vibe! After a few drinks we got a tuk tuk back to the sky train station and the driver must of been Schmachers brother. Drove like a total lunatic and we spent most of the journey laughing our heads off! There should be an Xbox game called tuk tuk racing- it would really catch on! Have got a flight to Ko Samui tomorrow afternoon and booked 2 nights accommodation in a beachside chalet.
