We just wanted 125cc's...thats all (Steve)

13/2/05- We (Rolf, Berny and me) wanted 125 cc bikes, we had to get one 125 and two 11o's. Makes no sodding difference and if we were real men we would get some 1500's!! Anyway, we set off to explore, first stop is the bridge again as Julia and CO haveny seen it yet, we pop in to the war mueseum afterwards and its the weirdest, bad taste way to do way to show what happened. They have these clay models of the POWs working in the loin cloths they had to make do with, but they are awful and even show their nether regions in a way that really is un-neccessary!!

After this macabre mueseum we headed off.....to somewhere, being as vague as 'lets go this way' we ended up on the very windy highway, and found signs to an animal sanctuary. What it actually was was 400 dogs and two goats making a very large amount of noise! A quick walk round the very smelly compound and we were on our way again, having not adopted any off the dogs.

More random riding later and we find a cool market where we could get things on sticks to eat!! Nice and cheap too. Spicy fishballs on sticks, and a weird omlette thing.

After a days riding around you really need some Karaoke, so after a little search we found a small bar that was virtually empty and the girls could virtually sing all night, even Rolf had a go! Those aware of my vocal ability will know that I wont do any singing, with good reason.

14/2/05- We are going to meet Tom and Jess today!!! We are so exited we cant wait, but first we need to get to Bangkok again, but its really easy and only tow hours on the bus.
