We are now coming to the end of our 7th month on this trip and we are getting pretty good at the airport thing now, although we did come a bit unstuck at checkin today. This guy in front of us seemingly on his own with very little luggage and then all of a sudden there were 13 passports in his hand and 5 trolleys of luggage (what a git we thought) He took ages to checkin because all the people were off round the airport and each time the guy picked up a new passport they had to go find the owner so the checkin person could see them, it took a while, Grrrrrr!
Our resort at Phi Phi where we are headed tomorrow morning is a bit remote we get a ferry from Phuket to Phi Phi and then another boat from there to the resort, The only other way in is a 1 hour hike through the jungle (we are going on the boat).
Today we had a great curry in our favourite Indian (or should i say Nepalese) restaurant the Gurka palace just at the back of the big temple in little india, as well as doing a great curry it is one of the cheaper places to eat in Singapore, and not a ming bowl in sight.
Sounds like the Wheeler twins are doing really well from the bits of information we have got from Ryan and Claire, this is the hardest thing for us, knowing that they have arrived and we can't go and give them a cuddle, we keep looking at the pictures, and I am not certain we completely believe that they are here and looking so cool. Still we will just have to make up the lost time when we get home in 5 months from now.
So now we are in Phuket town, and we are up in the morning to get our ferry to Phi Phi.
I think we had forgotten how cheap Thailand is, we had a couple of Chang beers and some thai fishcakes for 200 Bhat that's £4 in real money. On one of the walls in the place there was a wall with a load of writing on so Milo got a felt tip and left some writing as you will see in the pictures.
The hotel we are staying in tonight is really cool, with Japan style bed and table and cushions, and it is only £17 a night.
