We made it...!!

Hello Folks!!!
Horraaaaahhh!! We got here safely... well as safe as the taxi driver would allow! He said he knew where our hostel was.. ha Yeah right.
Had our first day in Bangkok, roaming the streets and trying to work all the train systems out. We felt like we'd achieved soooo much just when we worked the ticketing out!
Rode a tuktuk through these crazy streets, went through 6 floors of mall at MBK and bought supplies such as Thai Red Bull and Thai Nescafe.
We had 'Pork', corn and cashew at about 1am last night, which on kiwi time that was 6am after our 12 and a half hours on cattle class flights.
Booked our bus to Kho Tao down south for tomorrow which is an all nighter coach.. leaving bangkok 7pm, arriving there 5:30am.. then at 7am 1.5hrs ferry to Kho Tao Island chain, where we will spend a week to 10 days. Hopefully its a bit quiter and not so crazy!! 

Now we're off in search of some decent Pad Thai (hopefully) for dinner.
