Hi-Sukhumvit

We is here!!! Well, after what seemed like the longest plane journey ever, we arrived safely in Bangkok at 7.30 this morning (Thai Time). We nearly lost Tim in Mumbai. It seems that in India they like to have about 5 people all doing the job of one person, and they all like to do their job very thoroughly. This meant that it took us ages to get through security. And after they had given Tim's bag a thorough going through, they only went and forgot to stamp the paper work. This meant that as we went through the next check point (there were many!!) I turned around to find that Tim had vanished. The girls had already gone on ahead, so i waited in the hope that Tim would (like the shop keeper) miraculously reappear. At this point we only had abouut 10 minutes until our flight was due to leave, so i was beginning to contemplate having an extended stop over in India. As the last bus was preparing to take the remaining passengerss to the plane, Tim appeared with a very frustrated look on his face. He'd had to go through the whole process for a second time. Anyway, at least Indian airport security could never be accused of being lazy.

The place we're staying at for the next couple of nights is really nice. Hannah and i took the team out for a little bit of exploring, but not having slept properly for over 24 hours is taking its toll, so we're all back at the hostel for a bit of a siesta. Later this afternoon will go and enjoy some air-con releif at one of the shopping malls.
