We are back in Bangkok for the 3rd time now but also the last as we are flying home late tomorrow evening and will hopefully arrive back in sunny England at 6am Tuesday morning. We can't wait to see everyone and eat a Little India takeaway! For the past 12 nights we have stayed in Phuket's resort of Karon. We had a really nice hotel and chilled at the pool most of the time. The resort itself wasn't that nice and from what we saw of Phuket it was very run down an...

Luang Prabang 10-04-2012 Today we had to meet at 8am for a 7 hour journey to Luang Prabang.

It had happened during the storm the night before s...

Our journey in Vietnam begins. We had a long coach journey of 5 hours from Sihanoukville in Cambodia, across the Vietnamese border to the town of Chau Doc, Saigon. We stayed here for one night just to relax before heading to Ho Chi Minh city the next morning. In Chau Doc we went on a boat trip to see the Fish Farms and a local village along the river. We also went through the market and tried a few of the local foods, not dog! Later in the afternoon a few of the ...
