Bangkok

We left the UK on Tuesday 24th for our overnight flight to Bangkok. What can I say about Ms Wong. She is such a good traveller, she is amazing. Our flight was at 9.30 PM and way past her bedtime of 7 pm! But she stayed awake and soon went to sleep on the plane. Sadly not in the infant travel chair! We had to wait until she was in a deep sleep before that! But she did go into it for around 3 hours and slept the rest of the time on Ma Ma's lap. She woke up about an hour before landing, and was fine no tears! And happy to help us eat our breakfast!

We havent been able to get our own internet access its been far to expensive but I will upload pictures from a memory stick or as soon as we get home.

I have been to Thialand 5 times! And Bangkok hasnt really changed apart from the traffic is far worse that you cannot really travel anywhere by cab! The skytrain is good! And there is always the tuk tuk! And Isabella doesnt mind which mode of transport and has taken it all in her stride!

We only had two nights in Bangkok just to adjust to the time and get over our 11 1/2 hour flight. But Isabella quickly settled into the new time zones ( infact we all did!) and seems to be coping with the heat! The lovely rooftop pool has helped and she loves the Thia food, and learnt a new word 'Buddah'!

Thai people love children and Isabella has been getting so much attention! And is loving it! We also met a US couple who adopted a little boy two days ago! Isabella tried to play with him, but he was still shocked and quiet from all the changes and was just clinging to his new Ma Ma.

We flew from Bangkok to Hoi Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam and are currently in Hoi An enjoying the beach:). I will post soon and update our blog with our adventures to date and hopefully some pictures. But we are having a fantastic time:)
