Hello from Bangkok

Arrived in BKK yesterday. Just relaxed for a while with a long swim, a leisurely dinner and a Thai massage. Everything is so cheap; a half hour massage was 100 Bhat - that's 160p! The weather is quite hot and sticky but the sun hasn't been out much yet so the heat is not oppressive.

This morning we went to a travel agent and have arranged what we are doing in the three weeks before Connor arrives. We are heading down South to Krabi, Phi Phi, Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao. All rooms with A/C and breakfast. 17000 Bhat. That's 283 pounds for almost three weeks!

Photos to come soon...
