Thailand
Hi all,
We are now in Koh Chang. The trip here didn't go as smoothly as we would have wished but we made it, and 3 days later so did our bags!
The flight from Stockholm to London was 30 min late but it was ok I mean we had 2 hours transfer time in London. Then we got on the plane and they told us that we might actually be another 45 min late! What the hell! We spoke to the BA staff on the flight and explained that we had another flight to catch in London and that we had to get from Terminal 5 to Terminal 3. They assured us that it was plenty of time and just to ease our minds they would do everything they could to make sure we made our flight. Hmm yeah right. We were approaching London and the steward told us "you better make sure you get off the plane quickly if you're gonna make it". Eh thanks!
Of course we were at the back of the plane and the knobs who weren't in a hurry just stood up and faffed about with their bags for ever! We tried to say that we had another flight to catch but they didn't care.
We got off the flight and started running. We got on the bus to Terminal 3, got off and ran again. It's a lot harder than you think with 10 kg on your back. Luckily Andrew ran faster than me, after a couple of minutes he was gone. I was almost dying! But luckily Andrew held up the gates people and we made the flight and luckily we were now gonna fly with Qantas who are amazing. We love Qantas, they are so nice and helpful and funny.
The flight was fine, food was nice and we had plenty of movies to watch.
Got off in Bangkok and noticed that our bags had not been on the plane. Great!
We filled out the forms and went to the hotel. Had some dinner and drinks, then off to bed it had been a long day!
The morning after we got up at 6.30 to go back to the airport and take the flight to Trat. It was a very small propeller plane! But it only took 45 min and we even got breakfast! Trat airport is the cutest airport I've ever seen! Tiny and so cute.
From there we took a taxi, which took us on the ferry to Koh Chang and drove us all the way to the hotel Ramayana Resort and Spa. The resort even has a gym and we have actually been there and trained!
Other than that we just go to the beach (Klong Prao), have had some massage, drinks (happy hour from 16.00), good (spicy) food and today we had a so called "skin cut foot". It's as unpleasant as it sounds but I think my feet are now a size smaller :)
Weather is great, we've had a couple of thunder storms in the evenings which is great, it makes it a little bit cooler, so temperature drops to about 32 degrees ;)
Sorry but there will be no pictures at the moment, but maybe later, I'll try and sort it I promise :)
