Since last update, got back to Bangkok in one piece and got some sleep on train this time. Spent two more nites there, took in National Museum, golden buddha and vimanmek museum (palace built by Rama V).
Woke up on Monday(5th) with 10 bites on my legs of some kind, think there may have been something in the bed as Sinead had some too(but they liked me more ;). Headed off on early flight out of Bangkok to Krabi with Nok-air (nok is bird in Thai apparently), funny though as pilot was irish.
Krabi is some relief from Bangkok, just a quiet sea-town. No tuk-tuks anymore thank god, instead we have an endless choice of boat-trips being offered our way, at some stage I feel we may have to give in and actually go on one as there's f-all to do here otherwise!
Heading to Ko Lanta for 4 nites tomorrow morning, should be nice, though weather forecast is poor, warm, but very overcast and maybe some rain! Through hotel here, have arranged transport from Krabi to Penang in Malaysia, via some bus of some kind, be interesting to see how that goes, that'll be next Monday (12th).
Money-wise, still can't believe how cheap things are out here, no probs with getting good grub and a few beers at nite without breaking the bank. Thats all for now, later, Kevin

How do lad. Sounds like ye're having a blast! My most exciting trip recently was up to dublin for 3 days. Not quite as excitingas ye're excursions though. No sign of tuk tuks in finglas!!! The only exciting thing there is drive by shootings! Thankfully haven't been on the receiving end!!! Anyway keep us posted. (And suitably jealous!)
