So we decided that after all the rushing and travelling that we would wind down by just doin KL and then head for our 'honeymoon' proper. So we spent a few days in the capital and it is very impressive. Shopping central really. The Patronas Towers were immense and me with ma love of all things engineering I took about a million photos! We also went in for a wee movie. A chick flick, but I was just glad to be put of the heat! Big highlight was meeting up with De...

So we flew from Seim Reap to Viantienne and the capital of Laos. There was not much of note there apart from a big temple and the centre for the disabled. This worked mainly with people who were injured by UXO's (unexploded ordinance). We learned that Laos is the most bombed country in the world due to the Americans trying to destroy the Ho Chi Mhin trail during the war. But 30% of the bombs never exploded, and with the trade in scrap metal booming people, mostly...

Our bus 'driver' from Can Tho to Rach Gia not so much went over speed bumps, more hit them with blatant disregard, only hoping in what little understanding of momentum he had and the good...

So, I'm back! And another apology to start - it seems there is some conflict between our iPod and the website as it will not allow me to update our video as said from previous blog, but I WILL find a way! Anyway, onwards! Mui Ne - Back to the beach, but this time our first real experience of it. Unfortunately it was too windy so we paid a posh hotel $10 to let us use their pool and sun loungers. It was GREAT!!! Other than Russians and a bad experience of a live...
