Bangkok...

So we had a great flight with some great food which was Thai red fish curry or green chicken , scrummy !!  We watched some great films too ; Blended with Adam Sandler ( very funny ) , Saving mr banks (really great film) and a thriller with a guy who could memory travel ( if i remember the name i,ll post back but it was really good too !! )

At Dubai airport we used our last dhms to get mcdonalds then changed the rest to Thai baht and got the equivalent to ten pounds at a good rate too. So defiantly worth doing.

When we landed we got a taxi to our hotel - Grand Mandarin Residence , which i wouldn't stay again , it was clean and ok for the price but since staying at nicer for the same price, it was really noisy with people coming in and out and you could always hear the lift. However we walked ten minutes up the road and got a steak with veg for 85 bht and it was lovely setting with waterfall and live music.

In the morning we were told to get a taxi 3 hours early to the airport as the traffic is really bad , but we got there after an hour and it was only 300 dhms. We had krispy kreme doughnuts for 35 bht each at don muang airport and when we got through we had mcdonalds breakfast with free refills which we had never seen before. The flight to Phuket was with Airasia and we had paid an extra pound to get pancakes and syrup which was well worth it, you got four with butter and syrup - hot and very tasty.

GOTTA GO , S&L xx
