Time for some real travelling

Tom and I left Phi Phi and headed back to Krabi where we would split up for a few days. Tom would be going back to Koh Samui to see his parents and I would be meeting Rebecca and co in Phuket before heading towards Chang Mai. The day Tom and I parted company I headed down to Malayasia to spend about 20 minutes there before coming back to Krabi. The purpose for my visit was to do a visa run which cost about 20 quid. A man basically drives you to the border and waits for you to return before driving you back to your hotel. The whole process takes about 12 hours but is definitely worth it as you get another 15 days on your visa. I got back to my hotel at about 8pm and went out for a bit top eat before going to bed.
The next day i had to be up at 5:50 to get a bus to Phuket to meet Rebecca. I had to get the public transport bus which was dirt cheap. I arrived in Phuket town at about 11:30 and got a tuk tuk to Rebecca's hotel. We all went for breakfast before booking tickets to Bangkok where we would continue our journey to Chang Mai on the night train. The bus would take about 18 hours but because it was a night bus the chairs went practically flat so you could get some shut eye.
We arrived in Bangkok at about 5am and found a hotel that would let the 5 of us stay in a double room for a few hours as we intended on heading north the same day. Rebecca, Jess, Fray and Ben all squeezed on the double bed and i took the floor. I couldn't sleep so i got up to go to the toilet i managed to lock myself out of the room. I didn't want to wake any of them up so i ended up going downstairs for a beer at about 7am. I stayed down there drinking beer until about 9am when i plucked up the courage (because i was steaming drunk) to try and wake Rebecca up. She opened the door and i got changed and had a shower and went out for some breakfast which by that time i really needed to wake me up.
We booked the train on the way back from breakfast which would also take about 14 hours.
The train is called the sleeper train and you can buy a ticket which means you have a bed. We all got really drunk on the train and made a few new mates. Chris who has been travelling with us for about a week and we expect another week with him at least. Franko and Paul are staying in Chang Mai and we meet them for drinks every now and then.
Over the last 4 days of travelling mentioned above I had been in transit for something like 50 hours. Happy days.
