After a long day, night and day of travelling (crossing the border into Thailand after a night on the bus), we arrived in Krabi town in Southern Thailand. The town of Krabi was pretty - it had a nice walkway along the water and had the best night market for food. There are stalls and stalls of different foods including fruit and desserts. Most of the time, we'd use the old point and hope for the best and ate some really delicious meals as well as new discoveries: mango, sticky rice & coconut milk or timbit-like almond covered chocolate balls. YUM! [View Full Entry]

Hello again! This time, I'm writing from Malaysia. We've been in the country about a week, arriving in Kuala Lumpur, the capital city from Singapore by bus. The bus ride was only about 6hrs and went by fast since I was deep into my latest book, 'The Time Traveller's Wife'.

Hello, hello! So since leaving Lombok, we have flown to the island of Java which is home to most of Indonesia's population. We spent a couple days in the city of Jogjakarta before heading on to the capital city of Jakarta. In Jogja, I spent a lot of time (and money!) visiting temples in the area. The first set of temples were Hindu and Buddhist temples that were built in the 9th century. Originally there were 250 temples I believe all in one area but an earthquake in the 11th century knocked them all down. They were later rebuilt by the [View Full Entry]

Hello, hello! I'm going to try to set up a travel blog instead of emailing everyone. I will try to keep this to the point and not too long since, as always, the clock is ticking :) So, we've been in Indonesia fo for about 12 days now - we started on the island of Bali where we first spent a few days in the surfing Mecca of Kuta. It was chock full of hot Australian surfers and tourists galore. It was a very busy and lit up place with McDonalds, Pizza Hut, etc. While we were there Tory & I [View Full Entry]
