    Bali to Ko Phanghan (Thailand)

    We leave sunny Bali and our amazing bargain of a hotel and get to the airport. This is our last flight for a while having done around 12/13 in the last 6 weeks! I have some great photos of column encasements and all of the terrible detailing (and some nice ones) of so many airports. Bali although small is one of the best finished.... Although a brothel in downtown Bali is finished better than manchester airport so I can't really talk.

    We are both feeling good for a change brilliant!!!!

    Get to Phuket and then it's a 7 hour transfer across to the port at Suratani.

    We decide to get a night boat so we don't have to get a room anywhere.

    It leaves at 11pm so us and our newly found Egyptian, Indian and Italian friends head to a 7/11 and start to get on it while we wait for a few hours!!

    Once aboard the boat we each have a mattress 1" thick and they are all lined up bang tight to each other.

    We crack open more beers and end up being that end of the boat that everyone hates!

    We add to our possey four Mexicans, two yanks, one additional Indian and a Ukrainian. To play with us we made a rule that you had to sing a song which represented your country.... We lead with Jerusalem followed by im a pink toothbrush.

    The Mexicans then went, with a song which we knew at the time but can't quite remember...

    Gino, guacamole, salsa, tortilla TORRO! Which translated to we shag your mothers every which way.... We just can't remember the words only the tune and the last word you'll have to trust us.

    The Indians were God awful and killed it but thankfully Ukraine had had practice from Eurovision so we were back on track.

    The best part of the night by far was showing the Mexicans noblets tattoo we had arriba aye aye aye and finger pistols YES YES YES MINI!

    Heads went down at around 0230 from what I remember.... What a great night!
