Hi all, Well again as you can see. we are way behind in our blogs. We have had a lot of trouble recently trying to add photos, hence the long delays!! More to come soon (hopefully!) Thursday 5th April We were up early this morning to catch the 8am bus from Phnom Penh to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. Mia and I were feeling a bit worse for wear - her with a cold and mild fever, me with another bloody headache (for some reason, I have had quite a lot here - not a lot of fun!) Mia slept for about 3 hours of the trip, probably due to her not being 100%, even though the during that time, the roads were extremely potholed making a very bumpy ride. We arrived at a river ... read more

Monday 26th March We arrived late in the afternoon after our long but very interesting car trip from Koh Kong to Phnom Penh. We were picked up on time at 10.30am, said our goodbyes to the wonderful staff at Otto's and headed off. Our driver seemed nice and could speak no english. We had paid $85 usd for the trip which we had been told covered everything including the 4 car ferry river crossings we would have to make. The roads on the journey were a mix of superb and shocking- a lot of parts were being made and were really just muddy tracks. (we were prepared for the worst) The scenery was lovely the whole way. Lots of little villages, dogs and pigs everywhere, chickens, cows, ducks and of course children. There is now one ... read more

Hi guys, boy, are we behind on our blogs or what? Have 3 nearly ready to go after this one, but will be spending nearly all day today (Thurs 29th?) on a bus so hope to get one or two out mininum. Off to Siem Riep and Angkor Wat today. Just worked out we still have about 7 nights planned in Cambodia which puts us about 5 days behind schedule. Whoops. Oh well! No way we are going to hurry through anything, might just have to stay over here longer.... Anyway here you go! Saturday 24th March We were meant to leave Koh Chang yesterday morning but decided that we would stay 1 more night in the 'nice' part of the resort. 2500 baht (arghh....$90) but for a gorgeous room with the most comfortable bed, ... read more

Hi all, (Excuse the spelling below - hard keyboards to use, and too hard too spell check!) Just a few things before we keep going - after reading heaps of other travelblogs over the last 12 months, we always found that there was not enough information given in relation to names of places, prices etc being that we were heading overseas soon and wanted details, details, details. Therefore, in case other traveller's are reading this and are lookling for information like we were, we will include names of places, prices etc where ever possible. For those back home not travelling, I know this may be boring, useless info to you, but, oh well!! Also, there will be a lot of talk about food as those who know me will need no explaining as to why! Thursday ... read more

Friday 25/4 – Shell: We left Bangkok and caught our flight to Nepal. It was only a 3 hour flight but unfortunately we didn’t get to see the Himalayas as it was too cloudy. It was a pretty bumpy flight – a little bit nerve racking, made more so when descending through the stormy clouds there was a huge bang and a blinding flash of light. No cause for fear; only lightening hitting the plane!! We finally landed safely and instantly fell in love with Kathmandu and Nepal. As we got off the plane and were crossing the tarmac, we looked around there was an old man dressed ‘Nepali’ style sitting crossed legged in a field just watching us... Cool! A tout dragged us into a ‘taxi’ (a ’74 Toyota, no seatbelts) and drove ... read more
