What a morning! Today i was meant to start my tour... well i still am! Got up nice and early and was all checked out by 8am and was sat waiting in reception. You can safely say im not a big fan of STA Travel at the moment thats for sure. I was getting abit worried about when i was getting picked up so i spoke to the travel people at the hotel and had the weirdest phone call with someone..god knows who, someone from STA in Thailand i think it must have been. Anyway he told me that i had been cancelled off the tour on the 22nd December...to say i wasnt happy was an understatement! Anyway i decided being my normal self wasnt going to get me anywhere and neither was crying or calling home at 2am! So i spoke to the girls on this desk and they gave me an address for the tour guides. They were very helpful and really lovely. So i went to this first hotel... and the guide told me i needed to go to another hotel when the office is. So i got into another taxi who left me on this main road and nearlly stole my bag... its funny now... at i found some nice police offices who gave me a ride on his motorbike... picture this me on the back of this motorbike with my duffle bag which is sooooooooo heavy and my ladybug bag, quite a sight! Anyway i found this hotel and im meeting everyone at 6pm and it all kicks off tomorrow. So any eventful morning and its only 11.30! I told Gaz last night i had a bad feeling about this tour and i was clearly right to.. its all sorted now. I dont know what Tallis did to me but shes carmed me down over the past few years and Vicki's clearly had a positive influence on how i handle challenging situations when you dont speak the language!
Lucy good luck to you with STA... they're a lot fun! Im sure you'll be fine... i handled it without crying!
Anyway still having a great time and cant wait for my next challenge and meeting everyone tonight and i finally get to chat to someone english again!
Love you xxx
Me and Gaz
