A couple of lazy days ensued with lots of watching tv, out to Chatuchak Market for some serious mooching and generally chilling out..

Last night however was most definitely not chilled. Jen had gone to the pool... I popped to the gym for a run. Afterwards I met Jen and we returned to the room... and realised that I had locked the only set of keys in the room...

After speaking to the front desk of the complex, they said they could do nothing without the owners permission... and after frantic calls its seemed that the owner was out of contact for 2 days! This posed a big problem:

1. Jen in a bikini, me in sweaty gym stuff.
2. No money
3. Very low battery on phone
4. Nowhere to sleep

I must admit, that panic was setting in... we were due to fly the next morning and with no way to get into our room it seemed like we were in deep trouble. I managed to finally communicate the dire situation to the front desk and call a locksmith for me. The guy turned up half an hour later and opened the door in a flash with his lock picking skills... 30 quid well spent.!

The next morning, at 5am... it was time to go..

With our 74kg of luggage we got a taxi, flight, ferry, and taxi...

 Finally back to the apartment on Koh Tao... it was time to unpack and then head out to say hi to everybody in the evening before returning to the apartment with a nice takeaway from Yang's restaurant..
