bye bye jenni!

So we stayed up all night last night - jenn drank 2 redbull - made her kinda wacky for a few hours but it wore off once we got her checked in. we left the hotel at 2:50am - jenns flight left at 6:50. she's prolly in tokyo right now. i cried when i had to leave her at security. we had such a good time together. i really enjoyed having her around.

the last few days were really good. we were on ko samui for 5 nights. we spent a few hours in the morning tanning each day then we'd sit around in the airconditioned room we had for a few more hours and then once the sun went down (it was too damn hot!) we would go for dinner and wander the streets. shopping etc. we took a 1st class train back to bangkok on thursday night - it was VERY nice (according to thailand standards i think) and totally worth the extra we paid for it. although it was a long day (3 hours hanging out in starbucks and then travelling for a few hours and then 3hour wait in the train station) the train ride made it worth while.

in bangkok we SHOPPED! we also went to a muay thai fight - it was very cool! the ultimate thai experience. we had ringside seats! it was very cool, i took tonnes of video.

jenn bought 10 tshirts and like a million buddhas and lots and lots of stuff! i bought a few things. i might save most of my last min shopping for phuket....which brings me to...

i bought a ticket today phuket - singapore for aug 7th...which means i wont be stopping in KL. im a bit bummed but i seriously dont have the money for it. oh well - next time!

10 days till im home....cant believe it

see you all then!

Hi Girl;

Sorry you are all alone again. Jenn got home safe and sound. The whole plane was held up in customs in Vancouver, so every who was catching a connecting flight, missed it, including Jenn. She did get on the next one though, so, only an hour later. She was very tired, but excited about being home, and told us all sort of stuff on the drive home. She loved Thailand!
Talk to you tomorrow night.
Love, love, love
