Day 81 - 91 Vang Vieng So, it was always in our plan to got to Vang Vieng for just 2 or 3 days and move on. But things didn't work out as planned. The scenery alone in VV is a reason enough to stay for 11 days. But it was really the people that we met that had us pushing back our flight to China every few days. We have to give a shout out to all the awesome peeps we met: Camille - our friendly Plain of Jars Canadian that introduced us to Q Bar. Sandy - our fun loving Cali girl that was alos our movie buddy Lauren - a fellow American amateur rock climber Rob - Our little brother we never wanted but love anyway. Stevie - British lad with a flare ... read more

Day 74/75/76/77/78/79 - Luang Prabang Before we even start to tell you about our time in Laos, we should mention our one night in Bangkok before heading to Laos. But we'll give you the below words and then just let your imagination go from there.... Hung out with crew from Myanmar (Ben, Bex, Mark), beer, buckets of alcohol, Andrea from Cambodia, Tuk Tuk, Patpong Road, Ping Pong Show, Darts/Balloon, Lady Boys, Overcharge by 250 Baht, Locked Door, Madame, Pushing, Screaming, Beer bottles about to be thrown, freedom, McDonald's, early morning, bedbugs........ Some hopefully the above will give you some sort of clue as to how we spent less them 24 hours in Bangkok. It was much different then our first go in Bangkok via 5 Star Hotels. However, despite our late night and early morning, we ... read more

Day 61- 65 Myanmar (Burma) We have so much to report back from being in Myanmar for the past 13 days. Unfortunately, we had basically zero access to the internet while in Myanmar. The one time we actually found a cafe that had working internet, we could only afford to 15 minutes and the government blocked access to most sites like AOL, Yahoo and Hotmail. But now that we are in Laos and have recovered from the hectic schedule we've had for the past 15 days we can finally write about our time in Myanmar. First off, it wasn't an easy decision to go to Myanmar. We originally planed on going when we first thought about traveling. But after the monk riots and the devastating cyclone, we marked it off our list. However, we have met ... read more

Day 54/55/56/57/58 Phnom Penh & Koh Kong & Bangkok Our first night in Phnom Penh was short since we arrived in the late afternoon. But we did get a tuk tuk up to the lake and ate at the Lazy Gecko where they serve the most amazing chicken strips and fries (and have the cutest pug). S tried to add some more stuff onto her ipod but was sadly disappointed that the Boom Boom room in Phnom Penh couldn't upload MAC ipods. The cafe did have a TV room and we watch "Baby Mama" on their "Sinsung" DVD player (only the crap DVD apparently will play the pirated videos. The next day, Rob met up with this Scottish friend that he met on his tour of Malaysia. The two of them went off to sighesee around ... read more

Day 48/49/50/51/52 - Siem Reap Yeah it wasn't the most memorable day of our trip, making the 10 hour ride to Siem Reap from Kratie. However, we managed it with just a little bit of complaining (most of the whining came from S). In Siem Reap, we chose to stay at Garden Village as it was recommended to us by Andrea in Sihanoukville. They had "dorm style" rooms for $1 a night, but it was literally a huge bamboo hut with a 3 inch mattress and mosquito nets for walls - no security for our stuff and no hot water in the common bathrooms. So we opted out of that and took the private room with a ceiling fan and an en suite bathroom with hot water for $6 a night. I know all the hardcore ... read more
