Bikes and balloons Asia » Cambodia
So today we had our first experience on a National Express equivalent public bus! not fun! no toilet and constant beeping from the driver made it very hard to sleep-or do anything else!!Air con like a freezer so it was nice to get off every now and then to warm up!!haha! We arrived in Kampang Cham and checked in to our hotel with the LARGEST hallway!! and then went on some cool rickety old bikes caught a very basic ferry over to a little island. We rode around and gave balloons to the children in the little village over there! We [View Full Entry]

Another very early start and another public bus, less beeping but a few random Cambodians and a very odd in-bus entertainment system and then a private bus after a stop in town and a huge Hawaiian pizza went down really nicely!!!! we drove to the village where we were going to be staying in a home stay and dropped off our stuff. Basic accommodation is not really the word. A hut on sticks!! Adventures though! we got ourselves sorted into the girls and boys dorms and drove to a spot nearby. we trekked up into the hills for about an hour [View Full Entry]

tuk tuks and taxis Asia » Thailand » Central Thailand » Bangkok
Ok so after a seriously long amount of time spent flying we eventually got a room at singapore airport and had a nice swim on the rooftop pool in the morning. We boarded our flight for bangkok and matt finally finished watching Kung-FU panda after 3 attempts! he was pleased! We arrived in Thailand and were finally relieved to be reunited with our rucksacks which hadn't been seen since leaving heathrow!! The taxi ride from the airport was most interesting! i will never get road rage at home again! There is no SYSTEM no traffic lights and no lane discipline. families [View Full Entry]

leg one! Asia » Singapore
OK, touchdown in Singapore airport after a brief stop in Hong Kong, weather hot but some rain going on. plane journey's a little trying when we are both screaming out for sleep! a dip in the pool on the airport roof is on our agenda during our 12 hour wait! Matt caved in at Heathrow and invested in a DS and guitar hero game but we are looking out for more cheap games-godsend on long flights and waiting in the airport-especially using airport electricity to charge them!! both very excited about the next leg where our tour starts!
