Lobster... GOING CHEAP!

Hi again!

We've just left Koh Samui, land of beautiful beaches, GREAT foot massages and plenty of dirty ol' men chasing young thai ladies! Whilst we were in lovely Koh Samui we relaxed, drank, ate and went on a safari!

Our safari was a very 'funny day'. We started at two phallic looking rock formations known as Grandfather and Grandmother rock... I'll leave the greater details to your imagination. Afterwards we saw a mummified monk, elephant show, monkey show and crocodile show. Then we were in for a BIG treat of an elephant trek/ride! SOOOOO much fun! We finished with sunset at the Big Buddha, I am seriously thinking oversized buddhas are to thailand what churches are to italy! Ha!

We also slurged and had lobster on the beach one night. It cost next to nothing (180 Baht for Lobster, about 6 bucks Australian) which we attempted to make both sets of parents jealous about.

We are currently in Bangkok and will update you after we've done some shopping, pingpong shows and seen one grand palace.

Look forward to your comments and hearing what you are all up to!!!!
Miss you all lots, Love Bec and J.

Good to hear you are enjoying yourselves how many times have you been lost yet?
You want a large Buddha go and see this one and send me a pic. Wat Pho, it's also The Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is the oldest and largest Buddhist temple in Thailand not only Bangkok.
Going to the "V" this sat night in BrisVegas lets see what happens!!!

Both my sons are out of control now that they don't have me to keep the in line at home. Ones out singing songs at a sleasy pub in BrisVegas and the other one is trapesing around Asia with a girl eating lobsters and drinking beer.
Vickie and I are enjoying the peace and quite. Till next time.
