Too Funny So was it supposed to be a 10 minute hike to the movie theatre? Leave it to you to find the longest route to the movies.....You mean you didn't stop to chat up the us guards about their weapons? Sounds like you're enjoying your "adventures"....to heck with the lonely planet, I think it's more fun your way! Stay safe....DD
Soccer balls What a great idea, Mike! Good for you for bringing the soccer balls for kids! The world's most popular game. I hope you are having a terrific trip.

drago trip Hey there,
I was just looking at your photos of your tour group. By any chance is there a guy (slightly older) american named Wayne on your trip?
Thanks,
Kathie
Wow, Mike! I really enjoyed your post about the near riot experience you had, and I'm glad to hear you escaped it safely!

phew Thank God you guys are okay!! Good thing Big Mike was there! haha I'm sure everyone feels safer knowing your on the bus. I know I would. BDHQ misses you!! BE CAREFUL.
love reading peoples blogs Hi Mike, Greg passed this on to me and thoroughly enjoy reading about your trip. Imagine India ? What an experience. Don't know if I could stand the heat or going showerless. BUT can well imagine how good the food is . Hope to hear more .
journey so far! Really pleased that you are having such a good adventure so far, i so colud not cope with the heat or the lack of showering!!!!! Think i'll stick to the uk, although we have not had any rain for nearly 3 weeks in penwortham!!! Hope this is the first sign of a good summer?! As for spotting more than 4 people on a motorbike, you need to get yourself to Italy, we regularly saw 7 people on a moped!!!!!
Take care of yourself

Sounds very interesting It's really great being able to get your updates along the way....although you should keep some stories to youself, otherwise what you do when you get home? We'll already know the whole the trip!
I'm not surprised you're reputation has preceded you! It seems you are a force to be reckoned with!
Safe travels....DD
Safe Travels Thanks for the update and be safe on the next leg and try to get some sleep on that long flight. Can't wait to see some pictures from India and the Hong Kong Airport!
