Only 10 sleeps to go! Yes its that time again... Reet is finally off traveling again, this time with her crazy friend Rinna in tow! 6 amazing weeks of sun, sand, awesome food, adventure, mishaps, squat toilets, dangerous thai buses, creepy crawlies and most importantly CHEAP BEER! Mmmmmmm beer! How much trouble can 2 girls get into in a foreign land.... well for anyone who followed my last adventure you will know mishaps followed me everywhere ... from freak storms out at sea trapped in a tiny boat in 5 meter waves to crazy death rides in buses to snakes dropping out of the roof right near my head.... I am pretty sure you can expect the same again, although probably even more so... that's what happens when you travel with a crazy country girl ... read more

Hello everyone, This is my last blog before I head home.... first of all a HUGE thankyou for all your support, comments and messages over the past 6 weeks. Everyone has been really lovely and its been nice to have some contact from home and everywhere else! What a holiday it has been! We have spent the past few days in Bangkok finishing up the shopping and showing Heath some of the sights that I had seen (and not seen) on my first time round. Day 1 - Shopping Shopping & MORE Shopping We arrived into Bangkok around 10am and caught a taxi from the 'meter taxi' stand at the airport. I havent had any problems every other time we have done this although this time the taxi driver decided to take us the looooong way ... read more

Hello everyone, Sorry it has taken me so long for an update but the computers were crap in Cambodia for downloading photos so I decided to wait until we arrived in Bangkok... I just hope I dont forget anything now! Its been a whirlwind 5 days in Cambodia and I will do the blog in two parts.... Only 3 more sleeps until we come home - I cant believe it has gone that fast! Wow! There are 3 pages of photos with this blog... I apologise in advance but I tried to cull it down and this was the best I could do! When I started this blog in Siem Reap This is what I had to say (although now my feelings are somewhat mixed) : "What can I say!? If you ever want to experience ... read more

Hello everyone, Well we have just arrived in Bangkok after ANOTHER bus ride from hell.... this time we were literally airborne going over a small bridge and we were screaming down the small streets of Bangkok at god knows what speed! You really have to experience it to believe it! Its a very surreal experience.... before I start on my update on Kanchanaburi, just a quick question answered... Lee, the flies are not as bad as Oz... in fact we were very surprised to see the flies on the scrambled egg... perhaps Lanta Long Beach breeds them especially for breakfast.... It was certainly the most I have seen in the whole trip and they were all stuck to cold scrambled eggs.... yummmmm! This blog will probably be a little rushed but we leave tomorrow morning for ... read more
