Hello! Yet another update on the past week or so! We went on our boat trip to Halong Bay, which was so beautiful! We were on a tour, and I hadn't done anything so touristy in all my travels! We were on a boat with about 8 other people, but unfortunately no young people really. We did enjoy watching Olivia speak French across the dinner table to a delighted french couple though! Anyway, Halong Bay is being voted for to go into the 7 natural wonders of the wo...

Hello! So we're in Vietnam...my last stop (apart from the flight from Thailand...) sob! Just fill you in on the past week or so; We got to Vang Vieng in Laos, which is where we went for basically a long piss-up. The nightlife is great, and the day...life?

From Pai (Thailand), we got a bus up to Chiang Khong where you just hop on a little boat for a minutes journey to cross the border int...

Yo! Been having a brilliant couple of weeks, Thailand is amazing! We finished off in Phi Phi after the giant waterfight which was so much fun.

Everyone was so happy...locals and tourists celebrating together with buckets of water and water pistols, throwing flour and babypowder and rubbing p...

So we have arrived safe and sound in the heart of Thailand! Got here after a brief stop in Malaysia, a very interesting day which involved meeting one of the South African Princes (apparently), drinking beer and trying African food. Very Malaysian. We then flew into Phuket, and picked up a lone traveller - another Tom - who we shared a taxi with to find a hotel. The two days we spent in Phuket (in Patong) were good but I wasn't a huge fan really. Mainly ol...
