18th July, Tuk Tuk Sir?

Jeez, ‘you want a tuk tuk? where you from? I give you special price?!’. My patience is now down to zero. Got to chang mai fine. Saw the reclinings buddha, and the grand palace, tick! Got to chang mai and imagine a crowd of people saying where you going you want tuk-tuk? then they just rip you off. GOt on one today he was completely stoned. Didn’t where he was going or where I was staying. Stopped other tuk tuk drivers just to ask. Anywho after trying to ask for too much again got back to the apartment fine. Met the crew for the trek crazy bunch. They all love the ‘j’ pose – they all seemed a bit too enusiastic but in a good way. So i’m slightly drunk just finished packing for the trek its about 130am and im still a bit drunk. But should be fine leave at 9am tommorow.

Funny little tale with george, wanted to go the ATM but the tuk tuk guy really wanted a drink and stopped at some whisky places and got like a little whisky tasting sesh at random stops. Then it turned out he was our driver into town…

Said my goodbyes to gabriel sad to see him go. He did liven things up with his zest for the night life – well the girl thing, but i’m going to try and visit him in miami on my way back.

Missed out on the disco carraige on the train – loud music a bar and cheesy eurodance. I ended up playing chess with some dutch guy. Gotta check that one out though on the way back to bangkok.

Just gotta say, amazing apartment, still no signs of slumming it, great view an amazing mountain….
