Just a quick post to say that I arrived in Thailand safely. I met an American girl called Roxy on the way in, who was going to stay in a place called 'The Bird Cage' in Patong. We got talking and decided to go together so for 600 baht which equates to $23 NZD a night, I am staying in a large room with a King Size bed, a view out over the street and a separate shower unit. There is daily room service and they also do my washing. Despite the fact that everything is really cheap, I am not sold on Patong. It is full of Australians and people from other European countries clubbing it up and getting their rocks off. I finally found out what a ping pong show is but didn't quite have the stomach to take the invitation to go have a look. I think I'm going to head to Putong Town tomorrow although I will consult my lonely planet and a few other backpackers a bit further and will report back later. There is apparently a national park north of here which is very interesting. More later...
