Firstly, apologies for this long blog but we haven't had the internet apart from half an hour in an internet cafe to look at bus times. Get yourself comfy and I would possibly not eat during or just after this if you tend to go 'erw' at things! Our 3 hour bus journey from the Cameron Highlands to reach the boat to get to Taman Negara was like an awful rollercoaster. Our driver was a joke, driving like he was in F1 around all those corners. I had a headache and f...

It took around 5 hours to reach the Cameron Highlands, including 50km of the van continuously weaving left then right the left then right every 20m through the hills. It knocked you pretty sick and one girl actually threw up because of it. I'm glad I wasn't hungover! We checked into our little hotel, it's ok. Everywhere is shared bathrooms in Malaysia (unless you spend a lot of money) and it's getting pretty annoying waiting around for people and the doing the w...

I forgot to mention that on the night before my birthday I made an impulsive decision to eat a fried cricket. Ben was having none of it! It was a big cricket! I ate over half of it in one bite but it was disgusting. It was crunchy and tasted like cardboard or something. Yuk.

So we're in Malaysia! And it's raining...a lot! We haven't left the building today, luckily they provide bread and a toaster but we can't stay here forever!! Ben has been given some paid work for the Champions League magazine so he's working away, the money will help us a lot! On Tuesday we had a nice leg massage, our best yet which was nice, drank some lovely cocktails (I can't get enough of frozen strawberry daquiri's!) and I bought a pretty dress and some new...

Getting back to Thailand was a lot worse than I thought it'd be. It took us around 5 hours to get from Sihanoukville to Koh Kong. All of a sudden on the bus it got really hot and there was lots of smoke coming from the back of the bus. Everyone was shouting and I thought we were toast. For some reason the driver didn't stop for about another minute and then there was a stampede to get off the bus. We were right near the back so it took us another couple of minute...
