hi Dave
thanks for your comment;-) we think the good time to visit is now as locals told us prices have been going up season on season and gov. is opening more to the west so change is going to happen... we were surprised that Burma was actually cheaper than Thailand despite of what people are saying so was not that bad;-) we are stuck with blogs for now as hard drive in netbook died and we cant do photos or write untill it is repaired;-( Philippines are not the best place to repair stuff so we have to wait till Malaysia which is propbably another few weeks... so bad as already veeery behind;-( we will get there eventually hahha cheers, BandT
