Just the other day we decided to change it up a little, opted to leave the remaining beaches of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia for later and thought to do Japan now... so tonight we leave Bangkok and tomorrow hello Tokyo.. Just like that, no hesitation... crazy! Japan already is breaking the budget just slightly (err majorly!). Oh well!
Over the last few days though we had been chilling on the island of Ko Chang. It poured with rain the day we arrived and it poured with rain the day we left. It is low/rainy season at the moment so we didn't really enjoy our time here as the weather was patchy. It is a shame cause Ko Chang has lots of potential to be a fun place to stay. It really didn't help either that we stayed in a really mediocre bungalow down a muddy side road... our cheapness got to us as we didn't want to pay more than $10 AUS you get what you pay for sometimes.... We should of splurged too as all the resorts were offering superior rooms at half the price of what you would be paying in high season. After Ko Chang we headed back to home base on Bangkok's Khao San Road, where it is cheap cheap cheap. That's what we like...
A few pics of Ko Chang....




and the ever touristy ghetto of Khao San Road in Bangkok...


The pictures of the two guys (above-right) is where we get our breakfast from. Guy on the left serves rice with either pork, chicken or omelet toppings and vegetables for under a $1 AUS and the guy on the right serves chopped fruits for 12cents.. can't go wrong.
until our next blog be safe,
-Uriah and Derek
