Hey guys,

It's only been a week since we last posted, but we've done SO much! We have so many photos it's ridiculous!
Bangkok got boring quickly, having come from Hong Kong we were so sick of city life. Also Ali fell in a hole of poo and earned himself the upsetting nickname of shitleg so we took a 3 hour bus journey to kanchanaburi, with Zoe and Gaz from the hostel.
We stayed in the jolly frog hostel, which was really nice - we had our own little hut by the river!
We only stayed 3 night but managed to squeeze in loads.

1st day was the waterfalls - absolutely beautiful. We swam in a couple of them, one of which had a rock that you could slide down into the water from! It was amazing. It was also a bit of a trek; we saw a HUGE lizard thing - apparantly a komono dragon, just walking past us. And monkeys above us in the trees playing. Just fantastic.
We rented motorbikes to get there, which was also fun.. got up to about 100kph on those bad boys! Mine was blue. Nothing else happened.

2nd day was tigers and monkeys! That was fun too. The monkey school was really hands on (as you can see from the pics) and they put on a little show for us, with a monkey playing basketball, riding a bike etc.. It did seem a bit cruel but the monkeys seemed happy enough and climbed all over us!
The tiger temple was cool. I was amused that, as a woman, I was allowed to touch the tiger but NOT the monks! haha.. anyone who knows me knows that was like telling me not to push the big red button! It nearly killed me but I resisted.. just wanted to poke him so badly! I'm bad..
The tigers were mostly rescued as cubs from poachers, or born there. It was a really nice place.

Would have done loads more in Kanchanaburi, and taken some time to chill cuz it was such a nice place. But time was running out and we wanted to head south, so we may go back at some point since it's not far from Bangkok.

Next we're heading to Koh Tao.. a little island as we've not yet hit the beaches! Madness..

Miss you all loads.
