Well we have moved twice since our last blog. Left for Bangkok on saturday, Vietnam was so wet it was starting to feel like we were at Butlins! Arrived at our hostel after yet another death defying taxi journey (nearly 90mph all the way!) to find our room had bed bugs, great, so we made them move us to the original room that he had shown Sarah, bed bug free and much cleaner! Visited the night bazaar which is a huge market, picked up some more bargains so backpac...

Found Murphys irish pub on nathan road, we had a great time friday night got drunk off 3 vodkas (cheap dates!) met a few travellers who took us up to the rather famous chung king mansions for a tour of their...

Hi everyone! We are in Hong Kong on the start of our mad adventure through south east asia! We had been staying in the Newton hotel on Hong Kong island which was probably a really fancy hotel in its day but is now bit rough round the edges but it suited us fine although Amy did'nt agree as she ended up on the sqeaky campbed with a hole in the middle! First day we had to get up at 8.00am for a trip with David and felt like it was the middle of the night! We wen...
