Thailand Days One & Two

Ok, so now I'm here it's all perfect however it was far from it late Friday night. 12 hour trvelling, a torrential thunderstrom which started just as I retrieved my luggage and far too much in the chinese newspapers about people dying in submerged cars in flash floods of 6' of water in 30 minutes ... you get the picture? suffice to say that all rationale hd left me and tht coupled with a very small plne from Bngkok to Koh Saumui, driver who didn't hve gret commnd of the english lnguge and so couldn't tell me if this downpour was normal or not .... etc etc etc.

thnk your lucky stars you weren't receiving the text messges from me saying how scared I was, and I quote "Proper scared". Also for those of who you know me well, you will know tht frogs/lizards are high on my list of things I don't like. so, fter my journey when I clearly thought I was going to die, wht forms my receiving committee on the steps of my villa? A dirty great toad! And I cn see two lizrds too! dear god!

One thing to mention before we go much further. the key for the first letter of the lphbet does not work on this lptop & so I"m using the onscreen keybord if needed but otherwise I'm trying to us words which do not use this letter so I do not lose my mind whilst updting my blog - see?!?!?

the hotel is beautiful - I have my own villa and go to sleep at night listening to the waves gently breaking on the shore - bliss.

Havent been up to much I have to be honest; relishing in not hving to get up to n alarm (see wht I men?) and trying to ensure tht I don't get sunburnt. so basically in the shde all day until 3pm when I enjoy 2 hours of sun, 20 minutes ech side nd then 20 minutes in the shde agin. BTW dont be expecting too much on the tan front. Will upload pics tomorrow if able - so you cn be jelous of my views this week.

Hope the sun has shone for you this weekend.
