We quite Cambodia the 23 Mai, so we get a visa for Thailand until the 25th of June.
We arrive late in the night in Bangkok, after a day of buses to get there from Cambodia. The day after we took a night
train -12 hours- to end up in ChiangMai, the<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-21276821.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-20456962.htmlCambodia2008-06-15T09:55:19Z2008-06-15T09:40:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
So we arrived to the border and show our passport. Sadly, our visa for Thailand
was definitely two months, and for this we had to pay a fine of 400 Bath (8eu) per day per person. We had 5 days to much, so 2000 Bath (40eu) per person in total!

Before leaving Ayutthaya, we went in a tourist office to get the last information for the park and the border crossing.
Surprise we got, was when we showed our passport to the girl, she confirmed us we had tree months visa for Thailand , instead of two! So we had more time before we had to cross the border.
Cool!
We took<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-19839566.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-19093871.htmlAyutthaya or "The 400 temple city"!!!!2008-04-27T17:10:12Z2008-04-27T16:57:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
So, after 5 weeks on the island, we made it back to the civilised world!
For the history we went to Ayutthaya; the old capital of Thailand. The hart of the city is surrounded by a river, so we have an "island" here. This
means to reach the "island", we always need to take a little<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-19093871.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-18807928.htmlIslands life2008-04-17T06:50:18Z2008-04-17T06:31:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
Salut everybody!!
So, since the 13th march we where in the Thailand Gulf!! Great place!
We stayed the first week on the island Ko Samui, the biggest island in the gulf. Little bungalows on the beach, just perfect... We did a yoga retreat for this week; each morning 90
minutes<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-18807928.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17832934.htmlHeading South: Hua Hin2008-03-18T13:05:13Z2008-03-18T12:57:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
This is the first nice beach close by Bangkok, just 200 Km South. It’s not the best place we’ve been…In total we stayed for a little week here. The first day’s
we didn’t do a lot; Chris was ill; didn’t want to eat Thai food anymore. We had to rest after the tour and<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17832934.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17529089.htmlFirst Adventures2008-03-10T10:20:06Z2008-03-10T10:07:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
Halloooo everybody, or sa-wat-dii khrap!!!
So, we did our first tourist tour, and probably the last!! This is not how we like to travel!!!
The first day started at 6h30, we got picked up with a minibus, in which we had to sit the next 2,5h. The first stop was in Kanchanaburi: the<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17529089.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17316645.htmlThe first Impression...2008-03-04T10:10:14Z2008-03-04T09:56:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.html
Hello all of you!!!!
So, we arrived well in this wonderful and hot country!! The first day was a little bit fussy, we where very tired from the travel, and because we didn’t sleep
so much the last night! We arrived local time 10 o’clock, which is 4 a.m in the morning<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17316645.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17168933.htmlLast night in Holland!!!!!!!!2008-02-29T01:30:11Z2008-02-29T01:06:00ZKris and Joskehttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.htmlDear friends and family...
It's now really time to leave!! A few houres before departure, finally finished with the last things -a lot of arrangements for this trip-, we're stressed, tired, but totally ready to go!
I hope we did it all good now...<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-17168933.htmlhttp://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-15995957.htmlWhat's the plan ?2008-01-25T20:45:08Z2008-01-25T20:28:00ZKrishttp://www.over-blog.com/profil/blogueur-549965.htmlThe idea with this first trip together, is to discover the south east of Asia.
We don't know for how long, we like to go with the flow, and take our time, not our watch... Probably it's going to be towards the end of the year.
We have two preferred destinations we want explore; Thailand and Indonesia. A little<a href="http://joske-kris.over-blog.com/article-15995957.html
