Today marks a final chapter in our trip. Today is the day our last anti-malarial pills are taken, 4 weeks after leaving an at risk area. Two weeks, 4 days since returning back home. Knowing there is no more of those nasty little pills is wonderful ... Read more >

Hong Kong. What an impressive city! So grand and proud of it at that. So metropolitan and what a huge port! Our 20 minute train ride from the airport to the city led us by what I guess is one of many ports. This thing was gigantic. Both our jaws dropped.... Read more >

Our last few days in Hanoi before departing Vietnam were enjoyable amazingly enough. I believe this is because we shopped! Knowing this was near the end of our trip and not having to lug around heavy bags for much longer, we stocked up on a few things.... Read more >

So after almost 4 months on the road, I was starting to look a little "backpackerish." I had gotten a beard trim in Louang Probang, Laos, but needed to loose some hair. Shaggy is not a good look for Vietnam. There are barber shops or Hot ... Read more >

Eric and I fell in love with the coffee in Malaysia. Cheap and good. Started becoming somewhat addictive. Good morning drink and good afternoon pick me up after some hot walking and touring in the sun. In Thailand, the coffee wained as it wasn't that ... Read more >
