A Quickie!!!!! Some quickie. We are ALL enjoying your diary - Jan phoned today because she wanted to let you know how they are too enjoying your blogs - it really is a fantastic experience you are having - Colchester will seem so tame once you are home
Take care - Ankar What should be a wow. By the way when we were on the boat last May the computer was slooooow so I know how frustrated you must be.
Lots of Love Mama
Photos Many thanks - most enjoyable - where were you hats when on the bicycles and scooters!!!!! Sadly I could only print out the first six. Have printed out all your blogs.
ALL seems to be going extremely well - we are enjoying reading about everything you are doing - bicycling and scootering !!!!! I forgot after imersing myself in your goings on to thank you for our Christmas presents - better late than never. You will want another holiday to get over this one!!!
Love Mama
Saigon We left (or will be leaving) you a note at the hotel with plans for Sat evening and some dining tips. By the way, you made Hoi An and China Beach sound much better than I would/could. Maybe it was all the rain, See you both soon!
Happy New Year Hi Nikola and Simon
Hope you're both well - certainly sounds like you're having a fantastic time and are as smitten as the country as i am!!
Apologies for the initial small hiccups in Hanoi and Sapa, but by the sounds of things you seem to be getting on absolutely fine now. The reception you got in Hue sounded increbible!!
Take care both, and keep the photos and updates coming!!

Hi Ya! WOW!! Sounds like you are having a fab time...am sure you won't want to come back to a cold, wet, murky, grey England!
Happy New Year to you both, let's hope it is going to be one of success in many ways.
We had a lovely Christmas at Jan and Robins plus a few laughs. Headed down to Greenie's famiy early boxing day - flew down in record time (2½ hrs) - not so lucky coming home (4 hrs). Went to friends for New Year and had a rather late night, especially for us, 2.40am!
Really pleased that you're having such a brilliant trip.
Love to you both
Kate & Greenie

Hi guys Keep up the good work.. I am really enjoying reading your blogs.. And hearing about your holiday is giving me a nice little 5 minutes of escapism every day.
Happy Buddha.. is a very good name for Simon and you can tell him from now on we will call him nothing else :D :D :D:D
See you soon and savour every moment guys.. In England it's cold, wet and windy, and we're all back at work .. Hating every minute of it!!!
Cheers

New Year Thank you for the phone call - a very special Happy New Year to you both. Keep the blogs coming - they give us a good idea of how you are enjoying yourselves. I suppose I am so relieved after all the input into the holiday it is coming up trumps.
Not sure what was funnier, Simon bouncing of the walls after oding on hot chocolate or buckets of water being thrown at a mud splattered Nikola. You are obviously having a great time - keep 'em coming. LOL Steve, Ann and Alex
We cannot believe everything you are doing you must both be shattered but it sounds amazing!!! Happy new year to you both,can't wait to hear more about what you're doing. Lots of love Charlotte and Sim XXXXXXXX
Hello! It's been great to hear your news as you've been progressing along your adventure! We had a lovely first Christmas with Tommy - he predictably loved the paper more than any of the gifts! Keep the news coming and enjoy your sleep on New Years Eve!!
Love from us all,
Linda, Barry and Thomas xxx
Hi Nikola - great photos - we love the individuality of Simon's movements (smile!). It looks wet and cold, but very scenic. Hope you are having a wonderful time. Have not managed to convince Steve yet, think Steve and Alex are going to Italy and I am going to Asia! LOL Ann, Steve and Alex
Halong Bay Every morning I get up to see what you have been up to - you are obviously having a great time. Photos of Halong are very good - got some idea of where we should have been going - kyacking!!! phew!! I hope you are managing some shut eye. We had a really happy family Christmas at Jans with lots of laughs - I think she enjoys the girls company - Daddy and Katie played golf against Greenie and Robin who won. Coming home Daddy was breathalysed for turning from the right lane to the left - unfortunately all was well - just unfortunate that the police car was behind us as funnily enough we had been following one from Merrow all the way through Guildford.
I think you are now due to go on your train journey and up a mountain - seems somewhat strenuous so I am watching this space with great interest!!!
Love Mama
Your Journey Just another fantastic day for you - you seem to be coping well on adrenalin if not sleep!!! It all seems to be going to plan - the caterpillar has not put you off your food - well done for going local. We really are enjoying your blogs - how do you find the time to do them - keep them coming as long as they do not interfere with whatever you want to do.
Ma and Pa
Your Journey Thanks you for your blogs also amazing to hear from you on Christmas morning. We had a really happy day at Jan and Robins - they enoyed our company. Your picutres are just out of this world and you are obviously having a fantastic time - keep the information coming.
Where do you find the time to send us this information.
Love to you both and take care - keep having a wonderful time.
Love Ma and Pa
Merry Christmas Hi Nikola and Simon - great pictures! Keep it coming you are certainly getting our interest here. Not sure how Alex would fare with the food in Vietnam - but knowing him he would be eating like a local immediately. Red Rescue went down very well as did the strategy guide. We crumbled and bought him a Nintendo DS - but all the games work with it - so we have a very happy boy - not sure we are going to get much conversation today! Hugs and kisses
Merry Christmas to you too!! We will miss you too :-) Have a fantastic Christmas together and a Wonderful New Year, see you when we get back, be ready for the copius amounts of photos!! Love ya xxx
Have a lovely time Just to say Chris and I hope you both have a wonderful time and to wish you a Very Happy Chistmas and a Happy New Year. We will be thinking of you.
Lots of love Dad and Chris
