Hello everyone! (...us again!) Three weeks have flown by since last writing, spent travelling Vietnam with our first (...and no one can take that away from her) WT visitor. See cover photo for the Vietnam trio - what a 'motley crew' we make! Against the odds of a poor rain to sunshine ratio and some bouts of 'Sickly Parsons' behaviour, we have had a fab time and Elly thank goodness has gone home browner than she arrived! (...just) We made our way up t...

Completely chilled out and very backpacker friendly, complete with Western menus and DVD in our room...bliss. Surrounded by amazing scenery, we did manage to get out adventuring. Mountain biking, boat trips and caving (rather muddy!) were all brilliant. Highlight was a lig...

Hello everyone Finally we are getting up to date on the site - lots of photos added today from the last few weeks. A relief for us! Spending 4 weeks now in China, our love of the country has really grown. It has taken a while...the scale is so big and there is some 'bad and ugly' to overlook....but we're there now. Next stop after Sichuan was the Yangtze river for a 'cruise'. Great experience and the Gorges were beautiful, but romantic notions of a pict...
