Typhoon

 Asia » Hong Kong » Hong Kong Island
How are women and typhoons alike? They come in wet and wild, then when they leave they take your house!!! (thanks Dave-o) heehee Anyways, we've been delayed a day in at the aiport because of backlog from the typhoon Nuri and the Olympics finishing up. At least they got us out and to a nice airport hotel and gave us food, so we spent the afternoon laying by the pool and watching the end of the games. It was the best delay that I've ever had to live through. Denny was excited to get home, but he got over it. We're [View Full Entry]

Just a small Typhoon!

 Asia » Hong Kong » Kowloon
Hi all, So as we were gearing down for the last few days of our holiday, we get to the airport and find out that our flight was cancelled. Bah. The language barrier is a still a little sticky, so we were told that there were high winds in Hongkong, so the airport shut down. We weren't all that upset though, as we got to stay in this 5 * hotel on the beach for our extra day. It was a fab finish to Thailand. A little later, we were chatting with a British guy and he said that the "high [View Full Entry]

Downward Spiral

 Asia » Thailand » South » Ko Samui
Man alive... only 3 days left.... I must have the maximum amount of fun possible for the next 72 hours. We've got one more day in Koh Samui (where I will plant my ass in the sand and try to get in as much of everything as possible), then I will have my final $2 meals and then I will spend much time and energy trying to fit everything back into my bag (this is going to be a challenge). We then head to Hong Kong for a couple of days, where we will try and sneak into some end-of-Olympics festivities. [View Full Entry]

To all my peeps, So Jossy finally allowed me to make an entry, although I had to bribe her with a pineapple milkshake. We are hanging out in Koh Phangan right now recoving from the craziness that is the 'Full Moon Party'. Saw some things that are hard to descibe in words, from dudes passed out in the ocean to sex on the beach (not the shot). All you guys that have been know what I'm talking about. Besides the party, we've been mostly laying on the beach, which suits us just fine. We need to get in as much sun [View Full Entry]

time to relax

 Asia » Thailand » South » Ko Samui
Yup, we're back on the beach. After too much touring old, horrid war memories, we are back to peaceful, beautiful Thailand. We were in Bangkok last night and hit up the infamous Khoa San Rd for a farewell bucket. We found a great people watching station and enjoyed the world go by. There were also a group of lady boys at the next table that I couldn't keep my eyes off of... so hard to tell. So we had our very potent cocktails and decided to go and look for another adventure. We took the craziest tuktuk ride to Patpong road. [View Full Entry]

Hellooooo everybody, We made it outta Cambodia, just in time. I had definitely seen all that there was to see and was ready get on my horse. We started in Siem Reap and visited the Ankor temples for a couple of days. We somehow managed to find a pimp hotel and drove around in a taxi, so we didn't really get a real idea of what was really going on around us. We decided to have a little adventure and booked bus tickets to Phnom Pheng. Now our 4.5 hr journey turned into 6 on our "air-conditioned" ha! bus. Now we [View Full Entry]

So we walked off the night train from Chiang Mai, and headed straight to the airport. The nice lady at the desk got us on an earlier flight and we made it to Siem Reap an hour later. Wowsers! Now we had these crazy ideas of what to expect when we got here. Boy were we off course! The airport looks like a teak Asian temple. I guess that the French wanted to get some cash for their investment in this little colony, so they built it up right. We got our visas (my passport is almost full now... uh-oh) and [View Full Entry]

Hey guys, We just got down the mountain from a trek up to the tribal villages. It was rather over-rated and not really authentic, cause the village that we stayed in had tv. We ended up hiking up 1300 m in 3.5 hours, so we had much-deserved Thai massages upon our descent. We did get to ride elephants, which was super cool. Ours was totally lazy and just wanted to eat bamboo. When we walked it was so slow motion that we just sat back and enjoyed the ride. We also got to raft down a river on these bamboo rafts [View Full Entry]

Time to rough it!

 Asia » Thailand » North » Chiang Mai
We got into Chiang Mai this morning, after an uneventful night train from Bangkok. We're heading out on a trek into the mountains tomorrow morning to do an elephant ride, bambo rafting, lunch with the long-neck ladies (who wear the rings around their necks), swimming in a waterfall and more adventures. Exciting and scary at the same time, cause we'll be sleeping in little huts with probably some BIG bugs. So our time in Bangkok was pretty sweet. We hooked up with one of the touts who get a comission from shops if he brings tourists there. Well we made a [View Full Entry]
