Sorry about the late update! Us geeks havent had as much internet access as we thought we would have!!

So update: Chiang Mai was awesome! The trekking was really good fun and we met some really great people. Shout out to Theresa, Rob, Paul, Thomas and Stefanie! We started the first day around the pool at our hotel (BMP – very good!), then went into the city in the evening to have a look around the night market, picking up two t-shirts for 2GBP each.

NB – This post is now a week old – photos of the trek are up but I’ve not written it all up yet! Coming soon!!

Trip blog number one! Today we put the travel in travelling and are about to bust our body clocks as we arrive in Bangkok at 6AM. I’m currently sat at the departures gate in Abu Dhabi. We’re flying with Etihad airways which, so far, has been an absolute pleasure! We had top quality food on the flight just gone, and a selection of about 40 films to watch.
