After looking at all the deals out there and setting a bit of a budget we decided that we could comfortably afford a few weeks in Asia, after  I speaking to a couple of friends who have done Asia we decided to spend that time just in Thailand, but what worked well was the flight would stop in Singapore for a day, so we’d have the night to explore! So we booked our flights to Phuket make our own way round and up then on the 2nd of October we would leave from Bangkok back to the uk! 

I can’t express how kind  Margaret and David have been, feeding us, taking us in town to get final bits and being so understanding and helpful and even to the point that it wasn’t even a question of how we were getting to the airport, they became our oz parents, so it was very sad to say goodbye, but we had to have a picture and hugs before we got on the plane!….
