Hi everyone! We are just waiting for a flight to Darwin this evening and I thought it was about time we updated our whereabouts for the past month. We arrived in Jakarta and immediately wanted to get out of Jakarta. The traffic was intense, it was very difficult to even cross the road and finding our way around was a nightmare as we had still not managed to find an indonesia lonely planet guide. We stayed in Jakarta for a bit longer than we had intended, as...

We explored China town and little india and a few of the many hindu and buddhist temples. We went on a walk to try...

Again it has been a while since our last update - here is a summary of the last month or so! After Phuket we headed down the southern coast to a place called Phang Nga. It was a small village with a lovely night market where we discovered 'Mango Sticky Rice' - sweet sticky rice cooked in coconut milk served with fresh mango and coconut juice. Zoe is hooked! The only other reason people visit Phang Nga is that from here you can catch tours of James Bond island...
