Its good to see that also the birds on Don Khong are very relaxed

Don Khong – island bliss, boat trips, cycling and New Year's Eve celebration, local-style!

January 2nd 2013
From our first morning in Don Khong, eating breakfast while overlooking the Mekhong, the island's mellow vibe won us over. A tropical island in the true sense of the word, complete with palm trees, canoe-like ferries and the extreme languidity was almost visibly dripping from the local's every movement; we were not disappointed we had chosen this island over Don Det (even though getting th ... read more

Some of the pictures can't be viewed
Hello Sadie and Øyvind! Here we are in our English class talking about your amazing experience and looking at the great photos. Who is the artist? I feel really jealous when I see hom many wonderful places and experiences are you living. Today some of the photos can't be viewed (22 i.e.), maybe something is wrong with the uploading process. On the other hand, I have a problem with your mom. I'm trying to convince her to meet you somewhere in Southasia, but she always find a lot of excuses (vaccines, i.e. can you imagine?). This is a once in a lifetime experience and she must do it!! She use to be a hippy, and look know she has become a bourgeois... Anyway, I will continue to work on that... We don't know the next steps in your trip, so I would like to suggest you to spend some days in South India (Tamil Nadu and Kerala regions). I have been there with my daughters last summer and we had one of the most amazing trips we ever had. Moreover, Kerala was once the favourite sanctuary for the hippies (I'm not joking :) :)) Best regards!! JL & the former hippy

hmm strange
Thanks for the comment, we have split the work so Sadie is doing the writing and Øyvind is taking the pictures, but of course there are a bit of a mix both ways. When it comes to the hippie-ness I (Øyvind) wont comment much on that, we're just enjoying everything we can and if someone came to meet us it would be fun, If we could know excactly where we would be at what point in time - but everything is possible. When it comes to the pictures that cant be seen, its a bit strange. We have checked it on different computers and it's all showing here. Maybe its the cache on the computer you are using that's the problem? All the best Ø
