It looks awesome!
Hi guys. It looks spectacular over there! Hope you are both well. The room looks quite nice, especially since I don't have smellemail! Do you have heating? Vietnam was awesome. I had the best time. Mum and Dad loved it also. I will have to try and get you some photos. I don't recommend you plan a bike tour as the traffic is insane (and that's putting it mildly). Apparently 35 people a day are killed on their roads! Anyway we are all home safe and sound and well. Had a few upset belly days but it all seems to have cleared up now. One night Des, Misha, Mum, Dad, myself and our driver and guide got blind rotten drunk after consuming a duty free bottle of OP Captain Morgan between us and mum and I spent the night in the sink and toilet! I even slept with my head in the toilet bowl! Mum was very sick for a few days after that but she has recovered now :) Do you have any contact details as yet? Can we phone you? Speak soon. Love Carly. - Carly

Thanks for the beautiful photos Waz and Bec! We liked the look of our obviously rich relo's at the Choc shop. It's so interesting to see where you have been through your camera's eyes and the photo's are really terrific and so colourful. Hope you get time out from your chores to send us more. Keep well and even if your digs are not quite up to standard just gaze out your window - after you clean it! Do you have a window? Love to you both and many thanks for keeping us informed and jealous! He Ha and Johnny
