Heeey :) !
As I promised, going to keep my blog updated whilst I'm in Thailand so here it goes! :)
Left Spain late afternoon on the 22nd and arrived here on the 23rd around 22.00 so you can imagine how long the journey was to get here !
First flight went well it was short, only to Madrid. Once in Madrid we had to check in again to catch a 7hour flight to Dubai ! I was stopped during this period as I had no visa but after 15 mins or so they decided to let me through ! The airport was so big in Madrid that we had to catch a train within the airport to get to our gate (woohoo whaaat?! Crazy shit)
Also my luggage weighed 30kgs ! Typical, having a suitcase nearly as big as me that I can't even carry, stuffed with clothes and a million pairs of shoes! (You can never have enough clothes and shoes c'mon :p).
Arrived in Dubai early morning and had some breakfast before catching our final plane! I slept mostly through the long flights, even though I didn't have that much space, but then again I can sleep absolutely ANYWHERE! (Sleepaholic). Also I got to watch a movie called 'Crush' . (Not bad)
Finally we landed in Thailand, as we went through the immigration process I was stopped yet again ! They didn't even know where Malta was, "Malta ?? Where is Malta ?" At least they gave me an option, and so I had to have my passport picture taken which cost me €10 and then filled in a visa formula which was another €40. Finally I was allowed in. As soon as I stepped out of the airport and felt the humidity it hit me, I'm actually here ! Looking out of my window on the way to the resort, it was just like what you see in movies or documentaries, rough streets with old shops, small houses, huts, tuk tuk's and most of all GREENERY !
To get to the resort we had to catch a speed boat, as it is on an island ! (So cool !!). Afterwards we looked at two villas and finally chose the one most appropriate, not to mention beautiful ! It's right by the beach, and close to the gym, restaurants and main pool! The rooms are really nice and very spacious ! First night I slept like a baby, which is no surprise haha ! I thought I would get jet lag and not be able to fall asleep, but no not me!
Today after breakfast, we had a nice walk along the beach and afterwards swam. The temperature of the sea was just perfect. Then had lunch and a small rest to power up!
Next was adventure time ! We got some bycicles and decided to go and explore! Thank god none of you witnessed me getting on the bike and that no one took a video of me! It was a funny sight I must say! I forgot how to ride a bike, it's been so long since I last rode mine!
There's a small village on the island which has only a population of a 100 people. As we passed by on our bikes we saw the villagers and their small huts and shops, children playing with the most simplest of things and many animals running around! Finally after what seemed like hours we found a beach which had a spectacular view !! In the end the long ride plus all the sweat was worth it !
We stopped for something to drink and asked if there was another easy way to get back to the resort. There was! (Hallelujah). The easier solution was a boat, which came for us and our bycicles and took us back! Once we were home I immediately jumped in the pool and soon after it started to rain, I was so happy, I've always wanted to swim in the rain ! (Silly girl I know haha).
The day here has come to an end, just finished having a lovely dinner and now -all ready for bed. Tomorrow is a jam packed day, can't wait !
Had so much to tell you all, that I might have bored you a little! Never mind you'll get over it haha!
Night :) xxx
