Thanks for blogging about El Nido. It really helps me to think about going there.

Wonderful blog
I was in the Philippines three years ago, but I wasn't able to visit this island. Thank you for your blog. I will surely go back there next year. I can't wait to read your next blog. Just a tiny question, have you been to Caramoan Island? I heard it's also a wonderful place to visit.

We didn't make it to Borneo in our travels and we were so close
Oh well, a reason to return. As you say the list of future travels continues to grow.

I lived in a dorm in Tanah Rata for 2 1/2 years...
graduated from high school there. The school is now in Penang. I'm so pleased to hear you had a wonderful time there...I also enjoyed the cool temperatures, jungle walks, and tea at Foster's Smoke House.

Yeahhh this is La Paz
I'm sure you had the best time of your lives,the cholitas wrestling and the Horse back riding were AWESOME if you are reading this and you are going t o La Paz probably you'll like to have the "bolivian experience with locals", there's a page in Facebook that is useful and the owner is a local that speaks English Spanish French and Italian and will take you through paths that lonely planet or other guides wont, It's called "Tours and something else" Hope this is useful for travelers. https://www.facebook.com/ToursAndSomethingElse

OMG
What an awful thing to happen. However, you obviously dealt with it correctly otherwise it would have been even worse. At least you are both ok!! Onwards to Malaysia.......

Bad eggs...
Don't let a couple of bad eggs ruin the rest of your time in Thailand or put you off going back. 95% of Thais are genuinely honest and kind people but that remaining 5% happen to be in over-touristed places like Phi Phi and give the others a bad name. We have had a few experiences like you, once in Ao Nang where a watch vendor tried to hit Neil because he asked for the price to be lowered and the other just a week ago where a car hire guy tried to say we damaged his car when we didn't and scam money from us. Koh Lanta is a lovely island, hopefully you will enjoy the rest of your time in Thailand.

Keeping well?
Hi Guys, I would ask if you are well but from the pictures I can clearly see you are both having the time of your lifes. I have been following your adventures and look forward to every uopdate that comes our way. Not only does it brighten my day but also gives me hope that there is alot more out there than the the dreary skys of London. I only wish I had your get up and go when I was younger!! Anyway I just wanted to say I hope you are both keeping well and looking after yourselves and should you ever come back, (why would you) make sure you give me and Jodi a shout

Looks like you found a party beach
Sounds like you had to search for Thai food. You can't argue with the weather Gods. Not your kind of town but sounds like you were able to get some needed rest.

When I took a coastal steamer from Songkhla to Bangkok in 1968...
I stopped at Koh Samui. There wasn't one hotel on the island...just coconut trees. The steamer picked up copra. Time changes all things.

Sick tabs
Boat trip sounds horrendous.... I get motion sick a lot, but I absolutely swear by taking motion sick tablets from the chemist, they really seem to work for me. Just make sure you take them about 30 minutes BEFORE getting on a boat/bus/plane/train, because if you get sick then try to take them, it's too late.

Great Times in Bankok!
A girlfriend recently told me about a trip she took to Bankok alone, enroute back to the states and she stayed for 10 days...said the hotels were fantastic...you guys look like you had a ball and your story is inspiring me to want to go. Must put this on my list of places to visit. Thanks for sharing!

Sorry about the bad weather...
but the company made up for it...and a reason to return. I favor the secluded over the over commercialized too.

Absolutely stunning! I would love to head to Boracay! Where would you recommend staying in a Boracay? Because we had a tough time in Quebec for hotel stay. Entirely by luck we got accommodation in one of the finest hotel, hotel-le-president in sherbrooke.

Amazing photos!
Been following your trip and glad to hear you guys are enjoying the Philippines. I just can't help but comment on your photos. I mean, those sunset photos are ridiculously insane! Enjoy the rest of your trip and safe travels to you both. Btw, I think you guys would likewise enjoy Palawan :-)
