Hue ven Title meaning Heaven. Oh. your blog brings back sweet memories of biking through Da Lat, Hue, Nha Trang etc etc. I loved every minute of it. Vietnam is such a charming country. I went to 'Nam 6 years ago when it started it commercialised transformation. The attitude of the people is very forward looking. And considering their background of abject poverty and especially the intrusion of the French and Yanks, they are a very positive and happy people.

The Yoga place sounds like something out of a Mony Pithon sketch! Good to hear you are still enjoying your travels and getting into new stuff. You have just missed an OFSTED at work - lucky bugger!! Vic has finally been made redundant - I will be finished in another year or so, so will be off ourselves soon I hope
keep in touch Love Mand
Rivetting yoga story. I am trying to draw parallels to my own yoga classes at the local old people's home (they can't get out either). I first went along with my Mum and Dad. And let me tell you, no boy should see his father in those positions. We chant, meditate, sing and bend. I personally like the bending (no jokes please). It also is a great discipline to take out into the big world, where ever you are. At one level, and maybe this is enough, it teaches you to stretch the body and relax the mind. The techniques can therefore be applied anywhere, on a mountain, in Saltburn Amusement Arcade etc etc. I think the trick is not to make life so complicated but just distill it down to good breathing, mind relaxation and keeping the body supple every so often. That should fix your eggistential problem Big G.
Loads of surf last week. Nice and cold now but still exciting. Some nice shots of Ian Forsyths website.
Travel well and safely. Jaya ganesha, jaya ganesha, do wot diddy diddy dum diddy dum. Pooman
Congatulations Gaynor You both seem to be having a great adventure in India, can't wait to see the next instalment.
As per the title, happy birthday Gaynor - not sure where you will be on Sunday but, have a great day.
happy christmas ' ello there batkids. i thought i had already written a comment but it seems to have disappeared into cyberspace. anyway, it looks fantastic out there. I am having my lunch right now and feel a little challenged when reading about poo and wee. that said, the travelblog tells a fantastic story. i wonder how this experience will shape the rest of your life - you should let the blog run on and on, it may even have commercial value.
graham - i now have a longboard - i have finally sold out to a group of surfers i have always loathed (only joking). when you come back we can have a special longboarding session. anyway, must go as i have to go a meeting but i have heard surfs up so i will find a way of slipping out the back door for some truant fun. happy christmas lovely ones.
Big Country Hi Guys, Great to hear from you, keep the blogs coming thick and fast. Have you got over this toilet thing, or is it still "a passage in India"?
Keep in touch, and if you meet the family again, send them my regards.
Andy and Pavlina.
You lucky ****** Love the photo's Graham keep them coming, might just stop me going insane at work. Your toilet facilities reminded me why I stopped being a plumber.

Hi from Solly Hi Guys - I think the outside street toilet may catch on at the Lower Promenade, the council are on it as we speak!!
Sounds like your getting to see some great things (better keep photographing them Graham, it's gonna be a hell of a slideshow!!). Your not missing much back here to be honest...although one or two decent swells from time to time...lol. Keep safe, enjoy, laters....Ian and Sara
Hi from Solly Hey Guys glad your doing ok and looking to be having a great time. Liking the pics graham, keep 'em coming. Stay safe, enjoy and catch you both later. Regards, Ian and Sara
The fact is that it is not Child but "Chilled" beer. [Though I dont know if you are making pun out of it -) and you already are aware of spelling mistake]
Throughout India you will find such miss pelt words on bill boards of shops which generally cater to lower income group who have English as second language.

keep the pics coming.
kind regards Matt and Amy
