"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain

So with Mark Twain's words in mind, on August 25th 2009 the Queen (that's me, Monique) and the Princess (that's Kristy) will start a 35 day self guided backpacking excursion throughout Asia. We will visit Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Phillipines, Laos and back into Northern Thailand. The highlights of this trip will be the opportunity to help out an an orphanage in Phnom Penh, an elephant camp and the full moon party in Koi Sumui.

Let the adventure begin. The excursion will be amazing and are sure to include elephant rides, tiger beer and well, not likely a snake blood ceremony, but one never knows. Thanks for joining us on our travels.

On the road again
Hey girl, hope you have a great adventure. Do you ever wonder that you were born on the wrong continent? You seem to be drawn to that area of the world. I know I felt that way about the Bahamas but now it's Trinidad. Take care and I will lookl forward to reading your blog again. Love you,Cathy
