Mission

Happy New Year; may 2007 be better then 2006, please.

Not sick anymore, yay; but just done over 12 hours of travelling to get to Ko Pan Gnag in time for the full moon party and arrived to find no accomodation and spent several hours wandering through the streets. We've finally found somewhere. Yay.

Tired.

Sleep now.

Ergh. Just realised that I have to pay 20 Baht even if I don't use the internet for that amount of time. Dum, dee, dum, dum.

How's it going?

Aha?

Cool.

There are so many Israelis in Ko Pang Gnag it's insane. Little Israel. More signs in Hebrew then in Thai. This place is like the backpacker version of Ko Phi Phi, which makes it cooler, but also has a sense of sadness in the dissapearance of original culture, although one might say that this is the culture now and it should be appreciated for that. But then some people say one should appreciate it when people scrawl their names over thousand year old cave paintings, because it is the modern day equivalent, and that in a million years time people will appreciate the name scrawlings as much as the paintings, but really, that's dumb.

Maybe I'm just tired and grumpy. Getting here was hard today, but still nothing to the trials and tribulations of everyday travel in Ethiopia. It's good that that was my first backpacking trip, because I think every other place will seem like a cake piece. My team nearly combusted, but they made it through. Good for them. Oh, and we've lost Gabi and the Vince 3000, which I don't think I described. I'll cover the Vince 3000 in the next update.

Peace out yo.
