Month: May 2015

Tomorrow Tom is flying to Germany and Dad and Helen are flying to India but mum and I are staying here in annoying Bangkok city.

This is a little fountain statue thing that has lots of tiny fish in it. Theyre all nibbling on my fingers, its quite a tickly feeling. Did you know that they have fish spas here? They’re these big glass baths with hundreds of finger sized fish in them.

Tourists sit on the edge and soak their feet for 15 minutes and the fish eat off all the dead skin and funky bits. Gross! Ladies normally scream, its pretty funny to watch. But your feet look really clean afterwards.

I’m so bored right now doing my blog but I’ll have to get used to it because I have to do it for the next 7 months.
I’m siting on the 4th floor of our hotel and all I’m going to say in this blog is…..blaaah Bangkok!

Ok, here’s something different. HOW DID THE SQUIRREL CROSS THE ROAD?   Along the power lines.

We were walking around the night market last night and we saw fried scorpions and wolf spiders, as well as crickets and cockroaches YUK!

It looked like they were still alive but they weren’t. I wonder if any tourists actually eat them? Or if its just a trick that the locals play on farangs for fun?

Today or tomorow me and mum are going shopping and I want to buy soooo many things!

A FEW HOURS LATER……..

6 am in the morning.

Mum wake up come on sleepy head. Its time to go.

Zzz Zzz Zzz Zzz.

BON VOYAGE BANGKOK.

Scorpion photos to come.:o

This morning we got up and had breakfast and then we went to a park down the road to play the ball game I mentioned in my last blog. We saw this policeman statue along the way. They have some really strange things here.

When we got there we took our shirts off and sweated like a leaking bottle until we were to tired of playing and then a park ranger came along and said you have to put your shirt on. We put our shirts back on and then we went down to the river and OMG!!!! It is so polluted. We saw a big barge go past and it was getting pulled by a tug boat 1/4 of a 1/4 of the size of it.

We saw a Thai lady come down to the river with a water snake in a bag with water and another bag with heaps of little fish in it. She did a prayer offering and then tipped them in. We then saw 2 guys come along on a boat and one guy jumped off to dive down to the bottom of the river and collect mud crabs, he stayed down there for at least half an hour and then we figured out that he had a hose going down for him to breath through. I thought it was pretty cool. But I wondered how he could see what he was doing down there along the bottom of that murky river. After that, we went home to cool off and have some chill out time before lunch.

We had lunch at an Israeli restaurant for a change and I had a chicken pita pocket which is kind of like a mini pizza and a lychee and mint shake. It was so good, and then we checked out some stalls on the way home along Khoa San Road and then came back to our place and relaxed (mum and Tom relaxed I did my blog. So unfair!)

MY WISH LIST FOR AFTER BLOG.;)&#

1. Get ice cream from across the road.

2. Watch movies.

3. Eat ice cream. Which tropical fruit flavor should I choose?

4. Eat popcorn. I think that’ll be hard here.

5. RELAX .

6. Anoy mum.

7. Bounce off the walls in our room.

8. Do more cool stuff with Tom and mum.

9. Play some games.

10. Anoy mum again.

Bangkok has been so much fun but that was my day so far bye.

BON VOYAGE Bangkok.

A couple days ago we arrived back in Bangkok. This is a city that never sleeps, except for the drunk people that you see lying in alley ways sometimes in the mornings. Its very very trafficy (thats a new word) and its full of smells like bad sewage but also yummy meat sticks that they cook in the street stalls. There’s loads of colourful market stalls everywhere too which make it really busy and touristy. Its hot and humid all the time as well which makes you really sticky and sweat runs down your back. Its just great!

Yesterday at sunset we went to this really nice park with a big temple and an old fort with big black cannons in it. (that’s it in the photo above) There were lots of people relaxing and sitting around enjoying the grass and trees. There’s not that many trees and parks around here either because everything’s walls and streets and buildings in this huge city. Anyway Tom brought out this little woven ball that’s made of rattan which is kind of like bamboo. He brought it for mum so we started playing with it. The Thai people here play this game called Sepak takraw with it where they kick the ball over a net and try to keep it in the air for as long as they can. They have teams with 3 on each side.

Tom made his own throwy thing, its modelled off an Indiaca which is a similar game they play in Brazil but with a different kind of toy. Mum tried to paste a picture on here so you all could see what they look like, but its not working sorry. Anyway Tom has to fix the one he made, so that’s what we’ll be working on in the next few days.

We also played hacky sack as well and for those of you who don’t know what a hacky sack is, it’s a woven ball with beans in it that you kick around. We played until sunset and then mum started taking photos and me and Tom played tag and OMG he might be short but he’s so fast! After a while Tom and I were getting bitten by mozzies so we went home to our musty hotel and had spaghetti bolognaase for dinner on the way, it was massive! I couldn’t eat it all.

BON VOYAGE, see you latter.

Good morning.

We woke up in Trat and walked down the road to have coffee at the 10 baht coffee place by the day
market.

.

I had tea and Dad and Helen had coffee and then we got our bags on and got a taxi to the bus station, 1 km away.
When we got to the bus station I read my book while waiting for the bus and I was reading my book for 2 Hours.

I was nearly finished with my book and I was on page 334 or 5 When the bus arrived and we took our seats and I played video games for the whole bus ride.

When we were on the bus about half way though, I had to go for a pee, so Helen said to the bus driver “can you pull over? “. When he stopped, I raced out into the banana trees and took a peepee and then came racing back to play more video games.

When we got off the bus at Ban Phe, I was too busy helping Helen with my bag, that I forgot about my green bag under my seat. ( it had my book and my ipod in it) When I got off, Helen remembered that it was still on board, but it was too late as the bus was already driving off.

(Just saying to any of you people using ipod’s and phones to connect with me over the internet, you can’t do it any more because of what I just said. Sorry.)

We got a taxi and it took us directly not in the right direction, so we had to hitchhike to where we were going to stay that night.

When we got there we asked if the owner could call the bus station for my green bag, and she did but she could only leave a message. We are still hoping that we can find it and pick it up when we go to Bangkok.

Last night for dinner we came to a place called “Bobs Bar” and I had chicken nuggets with chips and Dad and Helen had FISH AND CHIPS!!!!!!!! And they were all so good!!!!

Last night, Dad and Helen had such a bad sleep. It was incredibly hot, and they said that it felt like bed bugs were biting them, but as we found out in the morning, they were bed mites. I was lucky that I was sleeping on Dads blow up mattress, so I didn’t have bed mites, I just had a nice sleep. In the morning we woke up and were told that “Bob’s Bar” had better rooms than our place so we moved there. That’s where i’m sitting right now doing my BLOG!!!!!!!!! on our veranda!

I like it here and so do Dad and Helen…… Because it has the best of people and views and every couple of minutes a speed boat comes zooming about with a floatation device with heaps of people on it….. mostly chinese and it looks really funny.

BON VOYAGE, bye, bye.
