We took a nice 8 hour bus ride and ferry to Koh Chang which is south of Bangkok. Once we arrived we checked into a bungalow on White Sands Beach. The island is stunning and was well worth the journey. Our first day we just lazed on the beach, topping up our tans. The next day we were up early and hired a taxi to take us to the Oasis Sea World. As we have been together for 3 years, to celebrate we treat ourselves to swimming with dolphins!!! The Oasis Sea Wor...

Yesterday we arrived back in Bangkok after a 2 hour flight from Hanoi, Vietnam. It was quite exciting going on an aeroplane again! We realised that we havent wrote a blog for Bangkok even though we have actually been here 7 times now !!!Bangkok is a crazy place.... This is a city where absoloutly anything goes - you either love it or hate it! On our first visit we didnt think much to it. But when we got here yesterday we breathed a sigh of releif and said 'home...

Yesterday we did the Halong Bay one-day trip. We left our hotel at 8.30am and travelled 3.5 hours on a bus.

Well, here we are in Hanoi, Vietnam's captial city! Cant believe that Vietnam is nearly over…. The night bus here was horrendous. Poor Dom got stuck on a bed that was far too small for him and he couldn't sleep ! (again i was fine...) Also he kept sneezing loads and it was clear that he was getting a cold!! (Can you beleive were in asia with a cold) Its not surprising really as the air con on the bus was a bit OTT (as its not exactly hot here in the North an...

Hue is a really cool place.We're staying at a hotel right in the middle of it all.The night life is nothing special but there are a few bars and restaurants to chose from so Dom and I have been naughty (or good, i suppose) and had chicken and veg two nights on the trot! (Funny how that has become a 'treat' to us now) And this morning i had cornflakes and milk and Dom had Co Co Pops !!! Deeee-lish! On our first full day we did the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) tour...
