JONO ... and it's really HOT! 33C w/ 80% Humid Had good flights (except my flipin tv didnt work, which makes 10 hours in the air a bit boring), and arrived 8ish last night.
After negotiating the swarms of Saturday night party animals on scooters (thousands of them! - thinking of you Jiwan:-)) we stayed at a fairly nice hotel .... we are going budg now though! We just found ourselves a little room at the top of 4 flights of stairs (packs are heavy) in the middle of backpacker-ville.
I must say the local coffee brew is not too shabby ... not that I can afford to be fussy right now. YAH
TRACIE ... Of course we've only jusy arrived so not much to say (yes, be surprised). One observation for today though, is that I'm not sure I will be eating much meat after walking past a 'butchery' today. A whole bunch of meat sitting uncovered, and unrefrigerated, on a counter. No flies at that point, but based on my new food safety knowledge, bacteria doubling every twenty minutes... yum! Agree with Jono about the nice coffee - interesting eh, that we have been here less than 24 hours and he has already had to sample one.. We are just about to go for a bit of a walk, then go get our packs from the hotel and walk in sweltering heat, (trying not to get run over by the billions of bikes and no road rules nor consideration for unsuspecting pedestrians) packs on backs, to our new accomodation.
