Thailand to Laos via Lang Prabang - VangVien May 23 - 26

Leaving Thailand and making it to Laos was going to be hell....It was gonna take us about 2 days to travel and we had to go by bus then by slow boat on the river. So we take a bus to the border and end up staying in a guest house which wasn't too bad. We woke up early and got on a slow boat and by slow....I mean s-l-o-w...but it was good cause we got some booze and made the best of it. The boat was small but we had room to move around and stuff like that, just really nothing to do, but after 8 hours we finally make it to the mid point, Lang Pragang, where we stayed in a guest house were they shut off the electricity at 11 because everything ran on generators and they didn't want to waste the fuel keeping it on all night. We woke up and got on a boat....again, but this time it was definitely smaller then the first one and I swear it was slower. We make it to another stop off town and stay the night there and take a bus to VangVien in the morning. The ride there was really cool cause it was very mountainous and a very windy road, and these people are crazy drivers, passing other buses around blind turns where there is only room for 2 cars and no guard rails, haha good times.....

This is the double rainbow we saw on the way to VangVien....it did rain, but that did not stop the drivers from driving all crazy

Changmai May 19 - 23

Changmai is a really cool city in Northern Thailand, there was quite a bit to do here, from trekking in the jungle and staying with some local jungle people, whitewater rafting, the Tiger Palace and quad biking up trails and mountain....we did all of them except for the jungle trek only because we didn't have enough time and felt that the others were definitely a bit more fun......

Visa Run then Bangkok May 11 - 18

We spent 32 hours to renew our visa and traveling to Bangkok, and trust me that really sucked, but we were in a big city and the main thing I wanted to see here was the floating market but our partying sorta kinda got in the way cause we basically went from sleeping to drinking....occasional eating.....like bugs, haha, but here are a few pics of our fun in Bangkok......I will say, for Billy's b-day we hit some go-go bars and saw a very impressive ping-pong show...no pics please, haha

Koh Pha-Ngan Full Moon Party May 5 - 10

All I gotta say about Koh Pha-Ngan is "I LOVE BUCKETS AND FULL MOON PARTY"....The party was just too wild to carry a camera, but man was it a party

This is what a bucket is.....its filled with the yummy of the yummy Thai whiskey, some ice and very little coke/redbull.....and I say that cause the wiskey is cheaper then the coke/redbull so they stack it, haha.......it'll get you druuuunnkk

The only thing that sucked, other then Ben getting his throat cut at the Full Moon party cause he tried to stop someone from stealing a girls purse.....he is alright by the way....is that our visas were up and we spent 32 hours traveling to Burma and then to Bangkok to renew our visas and get back into Thailand....

Phi Phi and The Beach May 1 - 5

I'm not gonna lie, Phi Phi was plenty of partying, haha, perfectly catered for backpackers and it was close to the place where they filmed the movie "The Beach" it was gorgeous out there and we had such a fun time just hangin out and partying our faces off......lets see in Phi Phi, we drank our faces off, I got a bamboo tattoo and we saw the beach from the movie "The Beach".....oh did I mention we drank our faces off, haha. Pretty random, we were walkin around at night looking for the free buckets that was advertised at each bar and we turn the corner and I hear my name....it was a girl that I met in Australia over a year ago, she was working promoting for bars out there, pretty crazy if you ask me, but here are a few pics of how we lived and what the "Beach" looked like.....oh and I fed a monkey, haha
