Hiya Guys
Headed off today for the spa resort yipeee!!!! On the way never know us to get so excited cos off to Tesco Lotus Suphanburi!!! Just like being back home in Tesco's everything under one roof but so so much cheaper!!! Got two vest tops for 79baht each so they about 1.10p ehhh!!!! Found some proper cheese vintage chedder!!!!!! Honest simple things here we take for granted back home so hard to find really makes me appreciate food back home. On the camp we mainly get veggie meals cos they dont eat meat and didnt realise how much I missed meat till its not there, tofu and beancurd just dont taste the same!!!! Sorry to you veggies out there but Im defo a meat girl ha ha!!!!
Arrived at the Wang Yang Spa resort, first impressions really nice, rooms were nice and we had hot showers hurrah!!!!! Checked out the pool area, not bad, was bit run down but pool clean and weather good so guess what we chilled out and worked on the tan!!! Jane found a ball and rubber ring which we had good fun with!! Was going to have full body massage but there was only one beauty therapist there so by the time rest of crewe booked in no time slots left so decided would wait till get to Ko Samet. Hit the bar area for dinner, cocktails were to be the order of the day but they were so sweet, no wonder the thai people have lots of missing teeth, sugar is one of their staple diet foods for sure!!! So had to have Vodka and coke at 100bahts a go, they were defo doubles for sure!!! There was a thai works do with karaoke and yep you guessed it we ended up with them singing and dancing, great fun. Jane kept us entertained too she a cracking lass. The bar ran out of vodka and they had to send someone on their bike to bring another and more wine for the thai works d funny where ever we go they run out of alcohol why???? ha ha
Next morning lie in and left about 11am. Headed off to Thai Benjarong pottery and Samchuk old market, this has been going for 200yrs!! The pottery was lovely and I bought three small vases, yep I know more stuff for another box to post home, but I may never be back this way!! The market was great, there were so many food stalls and just watching the thai people making various things of which you couldnt tell what was what but they kept giving us bits to try. There were so many different fruits, sweets, meats, and the smells, colurs were just amaxing to see. Around each corner was bargins to be had, I was really good and only bought two black and white photos.
Next we headed to Bueng Chawak Zoo where we saw some baby lion and tiger cubs they must have been about 2 months old awwwwwww. Some of the girls headed in to hold them I was going to then saw Helen get bit and thought maybe not, I know chicken!! Walked around and they had lots of tigers and lions in cages, I really hate seeing them in their, they are pacing back and forth and look so unhappy. There was some oranutangs and they had one dressed in sports top and shorts posing for pics, looked really uncomfortable, I know the thai people there loving getting pics but for me just thought no dont do that to them. Baby one appeared later, and clung to Michelle was lovely to see but still prefer to see them in the wild.
Headed back to camp, couple of beers and chill in the bar before heading off to bed early start on Sunday off to River Kwai.
Luv and hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
