My final entry from this trip, which ends up in Norway after only 4 months. I guess that shows you never know what will happen, last time I stayed longer than planned, and this time shorter. Anyhow, I am excited to come back for some snow and the winter Olympics. Dubai was a really nice place to come to after Sri Lanka. Everything here is so nice and clean, it even smells great all the time! Our hotel room was more like an apartment, with a washing machine, kitc...

We are leaving Sri Lanka tomorrow morning, for Dubai, and I must admit I am very happy about that. I'm left with quite a bad feeling about this whole country. I am not too impressed. Not that I regret coming here at all, I mean, I want to have been everywhere, and now I can cross off Sri Lanka on my list of countries.

The very last day for us in Australia was Australia Day, which was spent partly in hospital, due to the fact that Bobby split his eyebrow open while playing cricket at the party we went to.

Arrived here on Friday night, and went straight to my favourite hotel, Seasons View. I always stay here, I recognize the staff by no...

We left Pakse, and Laos for Thailand the last time I wrote. Not that much has happened since, but I just wanted to update while we are still in Thailand. Tomorrow we go to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. A three hour bus ride over to Thailand, and then we got on the night train to Bangkok, from Ubon. We were the only white people on the whole train, so we were the entertainment for a while. The train was quite shabby, so tourists probably usually go first class. But w...
