Our only day in bangkok brought us the famed khao san road (after a mcdonalds breakfast that turned into just cheeseburgers at 10 am). there were shops lining the street seelling just about anything you couldpossibly want or need while travelling or in life. the bars were fairly full even though it was 1130 am, it was exactly what we expected, only shorter in length.

We left Bangkok fairly early because we wanted to start our travels down the coast of Thailand and to ease the minds of our worried families. We decided to go to Hua Hin about a 4hour bus ride away. Although its not what we were really looking for (mostly rich European tourists staying in fancy hotels on the beach and Thai vacationers), we found the loooong stretch of beach and had an excellent day of being beach bums.

Unfortunatly we had to start living the travellers life and checked ourselves into a guest house here. We shared a romantic double bed in a very thin walled room and showered over the toilet in the shared bathrooms. We missed the hotel life very, very much....but i suppose this is our lives for the next 3 months!

Although our rooming situation is gonna suck, the beach was beautiful. We bought cute jewlery, enjoyed a cold beer and, finaly, ATE THAI FOOD. it was yuuuummmmyyy and we are looking forward to more.

Tonight we are off to Ko Tao, a snorkeling and suba diving island that is supposed to be quite "zen". We are leaving on an overnight bus and catermeran tonight at 12am and should get there at 830am tomorrow morning (NATALIE'S BIRTHDAY! better not forget!). Not sure if there will be internet there or how long we'll stay but we'll do our best to keep in touch.

**Our impatience has returned and we have decided getting something to eat is more important that posting Hua Hin pictures so you will just have to wait!
