HIGHWAY TO HELL!!!!!

Okay, get this:

From Siem Reap (aka ANgkor Wat Cambodia) to Bankok is 410km. YOu can
fly it in 45 minutes (for $180) or you can drive it. It takes
THIRTEEN HOURS!!!!!! And 8 1/2 of that is to go the first 110 kms
in Cambodia. The road is AWFUL!!!! There were trucks stuck in mud
up to their chasis, people walking along the roads with their luggage
because of traffic stuck in mud. We blew a tire. The other bus blew
a tire. Hell everyone blows a tire (except the government guys in
their 4 runner SUVs!). No AC. I was FILTHY when I got to Bangkok.
There was even a giant flat spare tire INSIDE THE BUS and it was
overcrowded so people were on the floor. Wooooooooo! That's the
third world baby!

Then we crossed at the border (under, none other than a TROPICANA
casino and many others! Patpoing is Vegas baby, Vegas!) And then to
Thailand, thank god for Thailand! Smooth Roads, Mini-buses with AC
and driving like 140km/h. Yep, we made the last 300 km in 3 hours.
Thailand is not a developing nation, it's developed!

So I'm at the airport, heading to Ko Pha Ngan for the monthly Full
Moon Party. 7000-10000 people dancing on the beach to the full moon.
SHould be awesome, and then enjoy the beaches and not moving so much.

9 days left I think, and Thom and Olga get here on Friday. So, your
last chance friends to come join in the fun! (goto www.thaifly.com
to save cash and get here cheap!)

Keep rocking
