Anyway thought I'd finish up with the bloggery.We arrived in Kaikoura on the northeast coast of the South Island. Ro in an uncharacteristic moment of organisational skill had arranged for her friend Jen to stay at the same hostel as us so we met her when we arrived.The point of us going to K</description>

                    <title>Hong Kong in July  DO NOT wear a hoodie and jeans when trying to get from the airport to the hostel with all your bags on your back in 30 degree heat  ancient Chinese proverb.</title>
                    <description>Final blog people D'oh.So yeah got off the plane sort of forgot about the whole north hemisphere south hemisphere thing and immediatly regretted the fashion choice. It is about 35 degrees here during the day and dead humid too.

                    <description> Hey again everyone hope evrythings good back home  From Sydney we flew into Christchurch which is on the east coast of the South Island just over halfway up. We found a hostel pretty easily and went for a wander about. Sadly there was very little to see. In the end and bearing in mind that it was a Friday night we got bored of the empty streets and Pubs and decided to go to the cinema. </description>

                    <description> Helloooooo. Realised that I haven't written my Oz blog yet I am already in New Zealand so here it is.  We flew in to Sydney from Bali and arrived at silly O Clock in the morning. Feeling knackered from the flight and the hour change we decided to get a coffee at the airport. That cost the price of a big meal in Asia. This didn't please us...  Anyway checked into a HUGE hostel in Sydney whic</description>

                    <title>My Last Asia Blog...so sad.</title>
                    <description> Hey again  We are spending our last day in Indonesia and Asia today. Quite wierd really  I'm having to eat as many noodles as I can today to fill up.  Anyway since the last blog we flew to Bali and I bought myself a new camera on the way too to replace the old one. We stayed in a place called Kuta which seems to be the touristy hub of Bali  lots of shopping a beach and surfing places</description>

                    <title>The rest of Cambodia and the death of my camera</title>
                    <description> Hey all  realised that I hadn't updated the blog for some time so here it is.  After Phnom Penh we headed to the South West coast of Cambodia to a place called Sihanoukville. There is a city of sorts with nothing of any real interest but there are lots of nice beaches.  We stayed in a real hippy place right on the beach run by a pair of Cambodians who called themselves Mama and Papa. And </description>

                    <description> Hey again  once again its raining outside so I thought I'd catch up with the blogging a bit.  After a very uneventful week we left Mui Ne and headed down to Saigon. Saigon was cool but when we first arrived it was a bit much  Mui Ne is such a sleepy little place and Saigon definatly isn't.  Anyway we stayed in the backpacker area of the city and had a bit of a heavy night the evening w</description>

I am currently waiting for the rain to stop  it is well and truly the wet season here now. So wasting a bit of time by blogging.  The crossing into Vietnam was one of the most bizzarre days we have had whilst travelling. We had to get a really early bus half 6 in the morning because it</description>

                    <title>The Four Thosuand Islands of which we saw 3.</title>
                    <description> Hey guys  thought I'd inform you of the rest of Laos whilst I have a bit of time spare.  We made it to Pakse in the south of the country and decided that there was nothing there. So we immediatly got a local 'bus' towards Si Phan Don otherwise known as the Four Thousand Islands.  This bus wasn't a bus  it was a converted truck with 3 wooden benches in the back which run parallel to the di</description>

                    <description> From not having booked anything in Pai at the end of my last post we managed to sort out in less that an hour I'd like to point out an overnight minibus to the ThaiLaos border along with a two day boat trip that would take us down the Mekong river to eventually end up at Luang Prabang. And we were very pleased with ourselves.  All well and good we thought. Well sort of. The minibus was d</description>

                    <description> Hello again everybody hope everthing is OK back home with you all.  Since the last post we've been pretty busy. From Phi Phi we got a looong bus up to Bangkok where we stayed on Khao San Road which is the backpacker ghetto of the city. It was nuts  absolutly heaving all the time street markets where Ro and I spend too much money on things we didn't strictly need  I even bought clothes</description>

                    <description>Hello again everyone  its been a while since I've updated this thing  been very busy Since writing the last blog we flew back to Peninsular Malaysia to KL and spent a night there. The following day we set off to Tamen Negara  literally meaning 'National Park'  where we stayed for 5 days.

                    <description>Hey all  just realised I ended that message on a bit of a worrying note. I'm fine  we had no problems predictably and so after a 9h coach journey we ended up in Krabi on the West coast of Thiland's south. Stayed in the city for the night we turned up at half 2 in the moening so didn't have much choice and then went to one of the nearby beach resort places called Railay beach. This was a</description>

                    <description>Hello again It's our last night on Borneo  tommorrow we head back to KL to finish seeing Malaysia  so I thought I'd waste some valuable sleeping time bragging about what we've been up to.Last entry we were heading off to Mulu National Park back in Sarawak. That was actually quite cool  I was half expecting it to be a bit crap in all honesty but it wasn't  as it is still the rainly season </description>

We just got in today having spent the last two days in Singapore.Singapore was really nice  dead hot and humid so the pasty legs have been out.
