Cheers  Carrol Jarrod & Carol Post Count: 16 Msg: #2 129 weeks ago, July 10th 2007 | I'd take two pairs of footwear: sandles and light hikers/running shoes. For trekking it's normally better to have something that covers your whole foot and has better support, but for everything else you'll likely be wearing just sandles, so its nice to have a pair of shoes that aren't heavy to carry in your bag. |  Sneekes Conrad Chircop Post Count: 1 Msg: #3 127 weeks ago, July 22nd 2007 | I'm leaving for Cambodia/Vietnam and possibly Laos for a 3 week stint on Thurs so I thought about your question too. | I am taking my trekking shoes/boots. Trust me you will need them, especially when going off the beaten track. You will also need to take some slip ons/sandals when you'll be visiting temples. Footnote: If you plan to go through jungles, always follow marked paths. Certain parts of vietnam and cambodia still have active land mines [Edited: 21:13 - Sneekes - modified sentence] traveltroll kerry winter Post Count: 10 Msg: #4 121 weeks ago, September 5th 2007 | I have a pair of Keen sandals which have lots of upper leather and good solid rubber soles; I am taking these to Vietnam as well as a pair of thick-soled flip-flops (Ocean reef). I have hiked in the Leens, very durable and solid! | caldnj Eric Caldeira Post Count: 14 Msg: #5 118 weeks ago, September 25th 2007 | Suggest you take a pair of good walking/running shoes, preferably with ruber soles and dirt-colored tops.
