Last Days...

We booked a flight from Luang Prabang (quite possibly the smallest airport on the planet, even smaller than Easter Island!) to Bangkok in Thailand.
Our final 5 days were spent preparing for our journey home to suprise both our families. Bangkok was a frantic place to end our travels with people constantly trying to rip us off with offers of 5 baht tuk-tuk rides and dodgy silk suits! It was good to chill out in cafes though and watch free film after film in the many bars.
Our taxi ride to Bangkok airport was with a driver whose multi-tasking abilities were quite amazing. I have never seen anyone drive, adjust radio, text, take glasses on and off (to text) and drink all at the same time!
After 12 hours, finally landing at Heathrow, our captain announced that it was "grey and raining" - we smiled at one another and realised that we were finally home.


Enjoying our last meal of the trip

We are home!

Most of you should now know that we are home. We suprised both our families two weeks ago (the main reason for the blog going silent!) and it was lovely to see them all again. Thank you to Kate, Nicola and Shona for organising everything and keeping it secret!
We are working on some blog posts to round up the trip. Keep checking and we will have them done soon...
