We're back in Bangkok now, and feeling like truly seasoned SE Asia travellers as a result. We left Koh Chang on Sunday morning, and had a fairly painless return journey (though it inexplicably took two and a half hours more than the journey there). Our last few days on the island were excellent, though we restrained ourselves from sampling the sausage and mash. On Saturday we went on a snorkelling trip, to four different islands all with fantastic coral reefs and a huge variety of fish, including big, colourful wrasse and the famous Nemo (tiger fish). Chris (half man/half fish) took to it much better than I did, but I got the hang of it eventually, with some help from the fishman (i.e. he pulled me along for a bit).
We spent most of yesterday booking flights, trips and researching visas- travelling isn't all fun and self-indulgence you know! Tomorrow we're off on a three-day trip to Kanchanaburi, to see the bridge over the River Kwai. We'll also visit a floating market and a tiger temple, and possibly do another elephant ride and bamboo rafting. It all sounds pretty exciting, but we're off at 7am, unfortunately, so it's an early night tonight for us.
