newbies arriving!

friday feb 8th 2008 - day one!

we have arrived safely after an ok flight - we watched dvd's, played computer games and matt slept - so pretty much a normal night for us! we found our way to a shuttle bus taking us to the hotel - BUT it took us to gridlock bangkok traffic jam - so we befriended a german couple (random) who took us to the sky train (it flies above the city) - and they showed us where to go, although the man properly fell over on the way! ouch. so we found that the sky train equals a happy leanne and matt - the roads however have enough dead meat (street meat is leannes name!!!) to keep leanne in the sky forever!!!

we made it to the hotel! its amazing!! - what a way to back pack ey! hummm could get used to this, so we are going to make the most out of these 3 days . got a nice top floor room so plenty of kodak moments of bangkok skyline! - although what is more amazing is matts feet have swelled up to reseble hover crafts - what a light weight :-p (henders not enough walking prep)

we are both pretty shattered so going to relax in the pool on the top floor........

we love youuuu

Hey you high flyers,

Great to hear you're there safely and living in a lifestyle you shouldn't get too accustomed to for long!!! What do you mean dead meat? Road kill or lots of stalls with meat to buy? Happy exploring.

Thank god it's the weekend I don't want to work anymore!!!

I hope ur having an amazing time - is the hotel like the one we stayed in in turkey? if so - not too much watermelon leawii!!! haha .... gutted to hear nothing more exciting happened on your trip! although it was a 'trip' for ur new found friend hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
The blonde one has returned to the northern quarter after the audition spree - still unemployed! damn it! yesterday was good tho - me and adam managed to get a recall and there was over 210 people there to start with so felt quite happy bout that! but thing is i really enjoyed the style of dancing we did so kinda wished i got a bit further! oh well!
