In the past few days we have visited lots of temples and learnt how to speak some of the thai language, Sawadee ka is hello for a girl and Sawadee Krub is hello for a boy. We have also had a cooking lesson, we made a salad which was so spicy that my eyes were watering and pete had to run and eat some sweet bread, it was very funny. Then we made rice noodle in a sauce and then banana in coconut milk. My favourite drink here is coconut. It is a real coconut which is not yet ripe so It is green, and you chop of the top and use a straw to drink the milk, it is so nice.
We went to Lop Buri which is a town full of monkeys. There were monkeys everywhere. They were so cute and they sat on my lap and jumped all over me. The locals say that they like the monkeys and will never move them because the monkeys where there first. I bought my sister laura a monkey made out of beads because she loves monkeys. We also went to visit a local school and there were bouncy castles and rides and games on the field form the children to play on, this is because today is national Children's day and it is all about having fun. The children were very cute and we had a go at karaoke in the school hall.
We also went to a palace and this is where the king from the King and I lived. I saw his bed, and also Mrs Anna's Chalk board. I wanted to take a picture but I was not allowed. But My thoughts where with the cast of King and I and everyone at Hitchin Thespains at the time.
Today we visited the Grand Palace which was amazing. I have never been to a place quite like it, it was stunning. We also visited another temple and then had a look on the street stalls on the way back to the hotel.
Pete and I love Thailand, It is really warm and full of colour and life. We have tried a lot of new things and have learnt a lot about the culture here too.
