Due to the laos people inability to give correct travel times we have found ourselves in Kratie , for a 1hr 30 stop over. We sucessfully crossed the border.

Especially as some travellers get chrarged up to $10. We should arrive tonight , around 9-10, in Kampong Cham. We shou...

We have done a lot since Kuala Lumpur and travelled some distance. After K.L we travelled inland up into the mountains and jungle of Cameron Highlands. I heard the drive up there was beautiful..but as i was nursing a pretty serious hangover i passed out for the entire journey. ...

We are in Kuala Lumpur now..arrived yesterday morning. We had a 6 hour bus journey from Singapore. Quite a posh bus. Last night we went walking around Chinatown, through the markets which was quite an experience. We were hounded by all the market people selling there knocked off goods, but good quality though. I did some bartering for the 1st time, almost bought a watch. Got the price right down...he was in my pocket! We ended up in a Reggae bar, typically ...
