Thailand

We met Rudi (Maritas boyfriend) at the airport, on the 6th of april. It was nice for them to finally meet again!

We spent our first 3 days on an island called Koh Samui. The airport was so primitive there..Watch the pictures! Here we met a lot of she-males (transvestites), Marita and Linn laughed, and Rudi puked and closed his eyes.

On day 4, we went to Koh Tao. Marita and Rudi went there to get the Divers License, and Linn joined to relax in the sun.. She had to work a bit more on her tan! The island was beautiful, it was like being in a postcard. Palms, perfect beaches, crystal-clear water and very warm!

We spent 3 nights there, and went back to Koh Samui. When we arrived there, it was Thai-new year festival. The festival is all about water.. Making each other wet is the point + getting painted with some sort of white powder which smells weird and stings a bit. In the beginning, all three of us hated the festival-idea, but it changed after a ride in a jeep! We got the opportunity to join 5 thai guys in their celebration! We sat in the back of their jeep, we got painted with powder, and we finally got the chance to throw water on someone.They asked us like every 5 minutes if we were happy, cause we didn't seem happy next to them. All in all, a very fun night, and the end of 2 days with constant water-fights!

We left Koh Samui and went to Bangkok! We thought the festival was over, but it wasn't , not in Bangkok. So we spent the entire day on top of our hotel, by the pool.
We are enjoying this, but we miss all of our friends, our family and our beds!
Now it’s only three days left before we return back home. In one way we really look forward to that, but we both know that we soon will miss traveling again.

Bankok

We left Sydney after we’d spent eleven days there. We both fell in love with this city, and will for sure go back there one day. It was sad to leave, but as soon as we arrived Bankok, we forgot. This is a whole different world than Australia, and we like this world.
On our first day, we went sightseeing with a “tokk-tokk”, that was fun. We saw lots of temples, a 40meter high Buddha and we saw many people offering and praying.
Then we went to a shop and ordered two dresses each. We are of course very excited about the dresses!
Yesterday we met Yutika and her lovely friends. Yutika is Marita’s friend from when she was an exchange student in Norway. It was so nice to meet her again! We went someplace to eat. Her friends were just as sweet as Yutika herself. The people here are also very sweet, outgoing and easy to talk to.
Everyone should go to Thailand once in they're lives. :o) We love it here!
Happy Easter to everyone!
