Happy New Year everyone! Am just lazing at the pool after a very late night! Loved the fresh paw paw salad for dinner which I haven't had since we lived in Darwin. Found a gorgeous little Thai lady on the street who made it for us with a great big smile on her face! The Thai people are just so friendly and happy and welcoming! We've learnt a few words already which always gets a laugh from the thai's when we try to say thank you or happy new year! The
thing that i first noticed about Bangkok is the huge difference in living standards that are in the city. There are huge modern high rise apartments with tiny tin sheds surrounding them. The street markets are fabulous! We are booked on a tour tomorrow to the tiger temple, bridge over the river kwai and floating markets. Massages and high tea this afternoon. Then off to Udon Ratchathani on Tuesday to prepare for the ride which starts on Wednesday. Miss you all xxx thanks for the post Laura, I love hearing from you guys!! xxoo

Hi, just a quick one to say that we've arrived safely! My mobile number here is 0850461352. Bought a cheap sim card at airport so should be able to keep in touch!! Happy New Year!

The Night Before

Hi everyone,

Renee and I have just had our last steak and chips for a few weeks!! Last minute packing and texting goodbyes, and then bed!! It all feels quite surreal to be actually heading over there after all our hard work over the past 6 months to get here!! I couldn't have done it without the unrelenting support of my absolutely wonderful family and friends, so thank you!!! Almost $11,000 and over 2000 km in training and I did it!! (Not to mention the two grand in freddos that Burgmann ate through)!! I hope you enjoy following our journey..... Happy New Year!!

Love Kerrie.
