Koh Tao

hey hey hey everybody, jo-jo is back from the dead!!!
we are now safely in Koh Tao, an island about 70km from thai mainland, around 2x5 km or something like that.
Bangkok was busy yesterday, hot and smelly but we managed to book ourselves onto a bus leaving at 6pm, so that was the second night bus on the trot, meaning this moring after 2 nights on buses and a day walking around bangkok we smelt.... funnny!!
we got the boat at 7am, beautiful sunrise, and arrived at 10am, went to find accomodation only to find island pretty full, last night was a full moon so plenty of people were on route after partying.
find somewhere we did, and custy too tho a little pricey, 7 quid for a room, but it did have hot water and cable tv!!
shazza started her dive course today, i'm getting over my minor ailment, only on 2 sets of pils now and almost have control back of my body tho there was a time in vang vieng where i started getting a bit delirious but all's well now.
were here for about a week, will put up some photo's from the last week tomorrow as shazza will be busy getting wet and stuff so i'm in chilling mode.
sat 14th, valentines day but more importantly wales v england 6 nations, game kicks off midnight local time here, already found a bar showing it and shazza's delighted!!!
hope your all well back home, not sure how many people are reading this but hopefully its giving you a window into our world.
we've had a tough few days of travelling, but as soon as we got off the boat here we both knew it was worth it!!!
smell you later!!
joe
