Koh Phangan

We've spent the last 5 days or so on the island of Kph Phangan. Were staying in an 'appartment that is the most basic one that we have had to stay in so far! in the room it has a double matress on the floor and a fan in the corner and then all the bathroom has is a 'squatter' and a bucket of water to flush down - not even a sink!

Koh Pangan has been very cool for meeting lots and lots of new people as its where all the packpackers are so over the past week we have met 3 chilians, 1 sweed, 1 australian, 1 german, 1 mancunian, some russians, 1 canadian and some people from cheltnam (plus a load more!). The ones we get on best with are the chilians who are very cool, we chill out and play volleyball with them in the day and the have bought over some kind of chilian drink with them they always offer round in the evenings which is very tasty!

The other people that I get on very well with are Mrs and Mr T and there 11 year old kid John! they own the place we are staying at and I have a feeling they may want to adopt me! Mrs T plays pool against me at least 10 times a day and Mr T is very funny! There kid John never seems to go to school much so spends most days playing us at draughts (well we use beer bottle caps on a chess board but it does the job) which he is very good at! it confused us alot at first because they have different rules than us that we didnt understand so he kept beating us! we also play in the sea and football with him and his friends.Overall koh pangan has been the best place for meeting other people.

Tonight we have the ful moon party which is a gathering on one of the beaches where about 40,000 people go so it should be amazing!

Were off to Phuket tomorrow for a couple of days and then heading down to malasia and singapore and then our flight finally to australia!

Thats all for now,
