Yes "the moment"!!

He oui, on a la vie dure!! C'est pas facile, je vous dis. Apres avoir ete sur la "go" pendant les 5 dernieres semaines, c'est "presque" difficile de s'arreter et de ne rien faire, assis sur la plage ou sur le bord de la piscine!! On s'est tout de meme promener cette derniere semaine: On a pris un vol de Bangkok a Krabi, pris le bateau jusqu'a Koh Pi Pi (ou le tsunami a fait des ravages il y a 2 ans), repris le bateau, puis l'autobus et encore un autre bateau pour changer de cote, jusqu'a Koh Samui. Ok, [View Full Entry]

"Hotel" Bangkok airport!!
Apres une semaine difficile en Inde, incluant le 6h de retard de notre dernier train vers Kolcata qui nous a fait manquer d'une poussiere notre vol pour Bangkok! Alors, apres une nuit passee a l'aeroport, nous sommes repartis vers notre 4ieme pays: le Cambodge. Phnom Penh a definitivement un air colonial francais: l'architecture, la structure civile( Gendarmerie!), les noms de rue (Boulevard Charles-De-Gaulle). On y a passe une nuit puis on est reparti pour Siem Reap, pour visiter les fameux temples d'Angkhor! Trevor a visite Siem Reap il y a 2 ans alors j'ai mon guide personel!! On a ajou [View Full Entry]

Holy cow!!!

 Asia » India » Bihar » Bodh Gaya
On est venu pour l'Inde mystique... plutot tombe dans l'Inde chaotique!! On a passe 2 jours a Varanasi (Benares) puis on a saute dans le train de nuit pour Bodh Gaya, une ville spirituellement reconnue pour etre l'endroit ou Buddha, assis sous l'arbre "boddhi" a atteint le nirvana! Il y a un peu plus de "touristes" ici. Mettons qu'on s'est senti pas mal seul a Varanasi. Et, imaginez-vous donc qu'on a meme pas magasine! Et oui, l'Inde est un pays tres discriminatoire envers, 1) les femmes, 2)les etrangers (blancs)!! Tout le monde essaie de nous passer un sapin et de [View Full Entry]

We're back, we mad it, kind of. 8 days 7 nights along the Annapurna-Jomson trek. We averaged 5 hours hiking per day. we have the sore feet and I have the tendonitis in my achilles to prove it. Because of the ankle issues we chose a detour cutting a day off the trek. I injured my ankle on day three so five days of limping was enough. Day one: Pokhara to Kagbeni We took a flight on a beater airplane (Russian or Polish made?) through the himalayas up to the mountain town of Jomson. Amazing scenery on the flight. We [View Full Entry]

Horrible bus ride

 Asia » Nepal » Pokhara
Towards the Mountains Asia trip 2007We are now in Pokhara about 200km's east of Katmandu, and the bus ride took over seven hours, in no small part due to the incredibly winding road, the mass traffic, the freightening cliffs, and smelly fumes, no air conditioning, Horrible, like the title of this entry says! to top it off mid way I realized I left the camera battery charger and spare battery plugged into the wall of our last hotel in Katmandu, Hopefully the last bonehead move I'll be making! luckily we had a day in [View Full Entry]

Kathmandu

 Asia » Nepal » Kathmandu
Bangkok to Kathmandu Asia trip 2007 We made it To Kathmandu, prarrange a hotel by internet in Bangkok, what a good idea, there was a little guy holding a sign with my name on it at the airport, and a free ride to the hotel. A good thing since we didn't arrive untill almost 10pm. Woke up the next morning and wow what a crazy place, even more so that Bangkok, but at least the temperature is pleasant. We have been wandering the town absording the sights and sounds, the smell isn't offensive due in large part to the cop [View Full Entry]
