| 11th May 2009 Jamie | - From: they're building a new death star!! It's 11.42am and I've done nothing but read your blog and day dream since I got in this morning at 8.30 The death star comment is so funny, me and rich went in the morning and they had all the tvs and seats still set up where he addresses his peeps! I totally agree with the mummy, i've got a few photos of him myself. It's a shame it was so busy for you guys. I remember the day we went to the vatican we got up super early and had no problems with queues, but then when we exited st peters there was a line a mile long. Same with the vatican museum it really wasn't that packed, which was good cause we didn't feel rushed and got to absorb it all. Although it made me quite sick thinking how much money the church have, and in all their ultimate wisdom and good on earth, can't think of a better way to spend it than to house a museum full of riches. I just kept thinking with each room we walked into, so this is the will of god, god would rather keep this room than use the worth to save a village in Africa! You guys have seen so much already, I don't know if Wales will live up to what you guys have already seen. Nevertheless we'll have each other and have an amazing time! I just hope it doesn't rain... too much!!! After looking at all those photos I can't wait to see you guys and give you both a big hug. |

| 12th April 2009 tom | severed elephant feet? - From: rainy times in little saigon did they cut off the elephant feet for the tourists? or do they have some other sort of significance that warrants a footloose elephant dancing the saigon shuffle somewhere? i always knew there was a communist in you - i dont mean that filmmaker you hang with. it fits that a propaganda atrocity museum was the straw that broke the capitalist camels back! ever a man of the people...neo stalinist is all the rage at the moment though so temper the leninist claptrap in burma. sedition is so easy to say but electrodes to the nipple leave electrical burns to last a lifetime. The reunification palace looks stuunnning - gorgeous lime green decor teamed perfectly with my grandma's chandelier. To think she has the same decorator as ho chi min? what a connection! And i love how the library has no books! nice nod, but a bonfire with a sign in front of it that says 'library' would have been great. or too...Cambodian? im going to work tomorrow. jealous? |

| 4th March 2009 Emma | - From: the morning after "Phuket's scent is one part spice, one part nice and three parts sewerage. Combined with the heat this makes quite the molitov mixture. One minute you will be inhailing the smell of of the foodstalls and the next BAM!!! shit. The smell is so awfully sweet, it's sickening, and it feels so thick and hot that you literally feel as though someone has momentarily wrapped a warm, fecal sheet over you." lmfao...that's so bad, but so funny the way you wrote it aaron! the photo's of you guys on the elephants are amazing! Love you! |
