Day 17 (Hungover in Thailand)

I woke up in the middle of the night and was so drunk (see the yesterdays entry) that I stood knocking on the door to the hall and waiting for who ever was using the bathroom to come out. That only happens when I'm really drunk and in not at my house. Once, I spent five minutes looking through Sarah's closet for the bathroom door, she turned on the lights and got me pointed in the right direction (no pun intended).

I woke up at 8 and was still drunk. That's always a bad sign, one big hangover is on its way. You've really got two choices, start drinking again or getting as much water in you as possible and then make the best of it. While the breakfast beer was often my choice back in high school, all it really does give you another three to six hours. If you don't get some food and a lot of water in your stomach your right back where you were.

Since I didn't have another beer and I had I probably wouldn't have been able to drink it anyway, I decided to try to make the best of it. I staggered down and got some breakfast then decided that I wasn't going to be doing anything anytime soon. We checked out and I went down and fell asleep in the shade by the pool.

My dad talked me into going on a boat ride with him at 13:00, which wasn't too bad. It was in the shade and I just had to sit there and watch the scenery roll by. I've pretty much given up on taking pictures, I'm burned out, there were a couple of pretty cool shots that I didn't even want to bother with. As I type I've already taken 500 pictures (~175MB), I've got a problem so don't expect to see a bunch of pictures from now on.

We get on the plane back to Bangkok tonight at 21:00, I think we'll head down to the south but I'm not sure.
