Bangkok...



Hi all, just a quick post to say that Poonam and I reached Bangkok early this morning. The city is buzzing at the moment because it is new years today, everyone is throwing water at each other (and us) on the streets. We are soaked through, I think running away provoked them even more!


First impressions are that it is very different from India and Sri Lanka, for example along with the usual water and snacks in the minibar we have condoms too!! And there are quite a few 'massage parlours' here, loads of old men with young thai women "cringe" its a party place. It is very modern, everyone here is really fashionable so we feel a little trampy!


Lots of love and hugs from Saskia & Poonam x
