Hi, In Ko Samui. Most commercialised of the islands but the beach it is still lovely and the water is very clear with semi-decent wave action (Surfer speak). However the weather has gone a bit rainy and is staying so for next few days according to the web so plans to delay our pre-booked flight out of Thailand have been shelved so we are off up to Bangkok tomorrow to catch connection to Singapore. Will add photos for Thailand now and next entry will probably be ...

Currnetly on the island of Ko Pha-Ngan. Been to Ko Tao already which is the least developed of the local islands. Quiet beaches and lovely sea. Kayaking and swimming during the day and in the evening beach bars with fire jugglers. Massively impressive. Also went to a ladyboy show on the second night which was hilarious. Hired mopeds yesterday to go halfway round Ko Pha-Ngan. There are some ridiculously steep roads so it is quite dangerous. Have seen loads of tour...

However when you go out in the evening all the bars are full of hookers and it is not in the least bit discreet. Not sure what the kids make of the entertainment (or the wives)! Hired a couple of motorbikes during the day which was good fun. Starting to get the hang of the chaotic roads. Left there this morning by ...

Cambodia now done and In Bangkok again. Cambodia was not as scary as I thought it would be and parts of Siem Reap were really posh, mainly due to the tourist industry for Angkor Wat. Angkor was amazing. Very interesting but never seen so many Japanese people. More than in Tokyo! Went back on the second day and went to some of the lesser known sites and as it was a Monday they were very quiet. Much better way to enjoy the scenery. Also visited the site of the Kill...

Amzing time in Mekong Delta. Two day trip and you stay overnight stay on the boat. The boat we booked was full so she gave us a free upgrade to the better one. It is designed to carry twenty people and we were the only four on it. Amazing. No fighting for sunbeds. Will add photos soon. It is just like the Vietnam you see in the movies like Platoon and Apocolypse Now. Loads of jungle and rivers. Currently on the border to Cambodia in a tiny town and it is sweati...
