Here's a snapshot of how we have spent the past few days in Bangkok: We wake up early, sightsee all day, come home in the evening for rest time, and then go out and stuff our bellies full of delicious food before going to bed. Saturday was a transit ... Read more >

The title for this post says it all. We've just transitioned from all these smaller little Thai towns to the equivalent of New York City. Whew. So far, tiring but enjoyable. We pulled into Bangkok after a relatively uneventful trip. However, things ... Read more >

Well, we have made it back to Bangkok. The journey today was relatively uneventful, except for the toilet on the bus. I guess we should be glad they even had one, since it was a 7+ hour ride...and it sure beat the shit-soaked one on the ferry ride, but ... Read more >

We arrived in Sukhothai this afternoon. It was an interesting bus ride and we can't help but wonder why anyone who has ever driven a motor vehicle or riden in one in this country isn't dead. We were travelling at break-neck speeds on curvey mountain ... Read more >

Well. We've been so busy doing things in and around Chiang Mai that we have not had any time to post to our journal. So, here is a brief snapshot of one thing we've been doing a lot of. We've been visiting lots of wats. That's kind of a joke because ... Read more >

Hello from Chiang Mai. We arrived here late on the 14th after another whole day of traveling. Our journey off the island of Koh Phangan was much less eventful than our journey to get there. This time we were prepared for the stinks and the touts and ... Read more >

This is Adrian writing. I have a rather lengthy story to tell, and it involves the highs and lows that can come along with traveling. It may get a little woo-woo at times, but you're just going to have to deal with it. Before I start the story, I have ... Read more >

We made it into Krabi at 8pm on Friday evening...an hour and a half past our scheduled arrival. The guesthouse we had reservations with was not there to pick us up as previously arranged and by the time we found transportation to a destination we had ... Read more >

We got into Bangkok last night (12/07) at 11:45pm. The flight was long and we were very loopy upon arrival. We then waited in a long line to get a taxi to the place where we had reservations. Slept great in a room with no window but fantastic ambiance.... Read more >
