Ok so we had 3 days in Bangkok... went to the massive market there, called chatchuchak or something like that! bought loads of little bargains and pressies (well Nos did most of the buying- i window shopped!) went to see the new batman film in the imax cinema- amazing!! and we also saw a "show" too...interesting!!! also bumped into people we met in laos so was great to catch up with them. Hong Kong was next- great place and loads of things to see. Un...

Cambodia...done! leaving tomorrow morning for a lovely, bum-numming 12 hour bus journey across the border to Bangkok, where we'll spend 3 days before flying to Hong Kong, and then (Visa permitting, China). We started our journey in Cambodia with a fairly painless border crossing by bus from Saigon to the capital, Phnom Penh.

Kho Phi Phi was our first stop- it's been rebuilt since the tsunami destroyed it but it still isnt that nice now. beaches are a bit of a mess...

Hey everyone, well I've been a bit slack with the old blogs but this is probably good news for you as it means you haven't had to read them! ok...so I think the last time i wrote was in Sydney...you've prob seen all the pics so not much to write really- Oz has been about the beaches and surfing really. Also tried our hands at goat rodeo and whip cracking. Hired out a pink barbie car for Magnetic Island (as you do!), and rented another car to drive up to Cape T...
