Change to the travel plan

So today was our last day in Hong Kong. We are sitting on the plane to Bangkok as I'm writing this. At first we had planned to stay in Hong Kong until Saturday and spend Friday on the beach but since Hong Kong was really expensive we decided we could spend that day on the beach in Vietnam instead and save the extra money it costs in Hong Kong. We also needed to switch hostel today (Thursday) since our reservation only was for 2 nights and the where fully booked after our reservation so we couldn't extend our stay.

So we woke up today with the intention of moving to another hostel for one night before taking the train on Friday. But it turned out we couldn't find a hostel this morning so talked about leaving today and we decided to look and see I'd we could find a cheap flight to Hanoi, Vietnam. Because if we would take the train to Vietnam it would take at least two days and 3 different trains and one bus just on the Chinese side. We found a flight to Hanoi through Bangkok that was cheap but then we couldn't book it online the same day so we had to go down to the airlines office downtown to book it directly from them. So we did that and also decided to only go to Bangkok and go through Laos to Vietnam and then down through Vietnam to Cambodia to Thailand.

After we had booked the flight we walked around on Kowloon island and Frida did some shopping. It was extremely hot so we went to an Internet cafe to try book a hostel for Bangkok. And while Frida did that I looked at the visa rules for Thailand and noticed you need and exit ticket to get a visa. So we has to rethink our plans again. Eventually we found a ticket to Cambodia for tomorrow so now we are going there instead. And then we'll  go up through Vietnam and Laos to Thailand. So it's almost the same plan but we are coming from the south instead.

We just started our resent for Bangkok and after our arrival we have 14 hours to kill before the next flight. We don't know how we will spend them yet but maybe at the airport but we have to see.
