Greetings from Oz! I know, I know - you thought we'd disappeared off the face of the earth?!?! Sorry, we've been a bit slack with our up dates recently - no excuse really - we've been too busy enjoying ourselves!!! Anyway - we've been through 4 countries since our last post so here are the highlights: Cambodia - after Sihanoukville we moved on to the capital Phnom Penh, and then Siem Reap to visit the temples at Angkor. Two equally important but completely d...

And baguettes, crepes, Nutella - I am officially in heaven!!! Anyway, where were we when we last wrote...Chiang Mai. Had a great time there, then headed up to Chiang Rai - not much to report there reall...
