Hard to leave

The journey has begun and it was a lot harder than I thought it would be... I have been planning this adventure for a couple of years but it has only been in the last year that my life in Australia changed so much! The hardest thing about leaving was having to say goodbye to the ones I love. I'll miss my animals, my adorable babies! My Family that I am so very close to! My friends...My best friend Danni, we are always there for each other! And my Justin... who makes me smile each day! Some may say a year is not long but a day without the ones I love is too long.

The flight to Bangkok was hard, I managed to watch Happy feet through the tears.
I landed at 5 oclock and with not much sleep Mum and I headed back to the Hostel in the oh so humid heat! After Mum informed me about the roof top pool it was only minutes before I was up there. I dragged Mum along and we went for a refreshing dip. The pool reminded me of the one out of the TV show 'the OC'.


And of course what better thing to do but to shop! We took the bus in and shopped till we dropped...right into a chair that just happened to have two lovely ladies who gave us a foot and leg massage for an hour, what are the odds? We then got photo stickers done and met a gorgeous little Thai girl. She seemed a bit shy but when I asked to have a photo she came straight over and gave me a hug and posed for the camera. Isn't she cute!

And of course when in doubt in another country about where to eat you can always count on there being a....Maccas!!! I had chicken nuggets and mum had fried chicken (alot like KFC). And we got these cute little dishes that you squirt sauce into for your fries. So cute!

As we walked to the bus stop for the ride back
I spotted a Hello Kitty bike. This is for Penne!

I'm so glad to hear you made it to Thailand and are enjoying your trip so far. It's just a shame that in a country with some of the best food in the world you had to eat at mcdonalds. Oh, well, if you get to take that Thai cooking class I'm sure it will make up for that.
