 Kate here. Ok, just for the record, the "y" keyy is super senstive and wants to be included in everything. I feel sorry for it so if an extra "y" creeps in I'm lettting it stay. Call me a softy but it is just too hard to edit after the day we just had... Also - I'm not Bee, I can't write like her and I'm jealous as anything so don't make me feel bad by drawing comparasons (Matt, this comment is aimed pointedly at you). Also want to point out that at 11pm with a sore head spelling is...

aquatic-fantastic-delicious-dynamic nothingness
June 25, 2009 - Ko Chang, Thailand
 Y'know what i really dont miss about the domestic suburbs of Melbourne? How you cant do nothing without someone complaining about it, thats what. (dont think too much about that sentence; if you do then youll start to get a different meaning from it that wasnt what i meant it to be, i just couldn't get the right words.) Today was ( I think ) the most strenuos day of doing nothing i have ever encountered in my short but satisfying  life.Our itinerary for the day was so full of holes where...

So just in case anyone was wondering, island life is pretty darn tough. Today we hiked a whopping 1.5km so that we could swim in a beautiful and impressive waterfall, stopping only to feed some elephants whole pineapples and bananas. We ate the best bbq roadside chicken with sticky rice. Kate and Bee got a laugh out of Steve trying to reverse park a kayak on the river. Kate and Steve got a laugh out of watching the kids play tug-of-war between their kayak and a very friendly dog who had a...

 hi everybodies its sam, sitting in a superly air-conned room, typing on a freakishly small ee-pc with a very sensitive y key. So far, thailand has been FREAKIN' AWSOME so I pity all the people who 'aint here......so nearly everyone. I was forced out of bed this morning to walk to Tiger Hut and eat bannana pancakes with honey, and then to walk down to the small 'town' about 40 minutes away. To do that, we had to cross quite a deep river, and there was a fully sick raft-witha-rope (a raft...

Dinner on the river, cats and beach magic
June 21, 2009 - Ko Chang, Thailand
Just got back to Baan Nam Rin after a magical few hours. Converted fisherman's house on a little river just off the western coast of Koh Chang (a stunning mountainous cloud-topped jungle island that's even prettier than Frankston). After our interesting ride here (more about that later, Steve had booked through a "branch" of TAT and we ended up in an unsprung mini bus with minimal aircon and terrible seventies music). We walked through the coconut groves to the beach and meandered along the...
