Chang Mai
It’s been a while since I have had Internet connection and so much has happened! I had a fabulous few days in Kao Tao – an island about 2 hours south of Koh Samui. It’s wonderful for diving – the sea surrounding the island is like a fish bowl – there is just so much to see! Audrey and I then headed off to Bangkok’s second largest national park for a couple of nights. We managed to see elephant and porcupine (amongst other things) on a night safari trip. Audrey has now deserted me and I travelled up to Chang Mai by overnight train last night – v exciting! I’ve been exploring today – so many stunning buildings all over the city. This is a rubbish picture but may give you an idea of what I’m seeing. I’m off to a budhist temple tomorrow to meet some monks. Have managed to find the arty designer shops too – no surprises there then!
Will update again tomorrow – for now, thinking of home …

Sounds fab! Did you see Trevor Trigger fish when diving in Kao Tao? He was famous when went diving there…….and could be quite dangerous as he advanced at speed to unsuspecting divers!
