Arrived
Here we are in Bangkok, sitting in an internet cafe over the road from our hotel. It's around 8pm now which is 6 hours ahead of the UK. Our flight was alright, 11 hours, watched a couple of films (XMen 3 and Confidence), only got about 2 hours sleep so was totally knackered when we arrived.
Our hotel is very nice, we chose to eat there last night as we were so tired, this was a bad idea as the portions were ridiculously large and rather expensive. We ate out tonight and both our meals and drinks were under 2 quid.
We spent today sorting out visas for the other countries and still have a bit more of that to do tomorrow. We are also going to find another place to stay for a couple of nights as tonight is our last night in the posh hotel.
Good to see that Doug Ellis has been replaced by Randy Lerner. Anything else of any note happened? Leave us a comment at the end of this post, or on the message board please. Anyone know if Susan passed her driving test?
I imagine we'll be in an internet cafe again within the next couple of days, this is an expensive one, 50p an hour! ;-)
Not taken any photos yet but once we get a few I'll upload them onto the gallery, maybe in a month or so.
Much love
Jamie and Sophie

Glad to hear you arrived safe and sound. I forgot to ask you are you working your way round the world or was this all pre booked or a bit of both.
