Some actual backpacking

January19

We were up early this morning so that we could pack our bags and try
out our first bit of real travelling. We caught the Sky Train to the
bus terminal, had a 5 hour bus ride to Trat, an hour long wait for a
ride to the ferry, an hour long wait for the ferry and a shared taxi
to our hostel on Koh Chang. Tiring but absolutely fascinating. It was
dark when we arrived so we have no idea what the beach looks like but
I’m sure we’ll have a pleasant surprise in the morning.

So now we are sat in a very nice restaurant stuffing out faces with
really good food while listening to a CD of Neil Young, UB40 and reggae.

    If I remember correctly you told us that most people lose weight during their travels – pleased to see that you’re guarding against this.
    Looks fabulous.

    So is Jen eating anything but noodles?! Post a pic of her tucking in soon. Glad to hear the food is great though. It looks so quiet – are there fewer travellers than usual?
    Pleased to see you can blog from the island.
