Once again we were up bright and early ready to get our bus to Bangkok. We boarded a lovely big coach to the Thai border, where we had to disembark. Once we crossed the border into Thailand we were ushered into over packed minivans (12 people, 12 backpacks then one of our fellow travel companions had thought it would be a great idea to bring a bike on board!). Bit squished but it was only a few hours to our final destination, Bangkok. First stop Koh San road, a ...

After a quick nap and sometime tanning by our pool (utter luxury!) we went off to explore Siem Reap. This is by far the most touristy spot we have hit, western restaurants, bars and tourists everywhere. We met up Jenny and Susan from our Ha Long bay tour for a few drinks and hear their travel stories! We were up the following morning before the crack of dawn (about 4:30 am) in order to get to Angkor Wat for sunrise. We were very tempted not to bother and just go...

When we eventually found our hostel after a lot of wandering down dodgy lanes we dropped our bags and headed out to explore. We hopped into a Taxi and went to see the infamous Chu Chi Tunnels. After a quick video on the war (from the Vietnamese point of view!) we got to...

Da Nang is used as a holiday resort by Vietnamese. It was refreshing to see an authentic Vietnamese town that hadn't been influenced by foreign tourism.There were no western restaurants in the town and the hotel restaurant served noodles and fish for breakfast, not what us westerners were looking for first thing in the morning! There wasn't a whole to do in Da Nang so we were grateful we decided to spend an extra night in Hoi An rather than Da Nang. We went down...
