Kris & Sam in SE Asia Bangkok, Phuket, Siem Reap, Kanchanaburi

New Plans

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 30 November 2008 | Views [585] | Comments [10]

Due to us not being able to enter Bangkok we've had to cancel all our plans :-( All previous bookings are now cancelled and we won't be going to Cambodia or Bangkok anymore (To reach Cambodia we needed to go via Bangkok). This is really upsetting, both kris and i were especially looking forward to the temples in Cambodia, Angkor Wat, the River Quay festival and the bangkok markets. To make the most of our situation though we've now booked air tickets to Kuala Lumpur and are staying in there for 7 nights. While we're there we'll probably see singapore but nothing is for sure anymore, we can only wing it from now on. So all our new plans are completey voidant of Bangkok and we'll be flying home via asian airways from kuala lumpur if all goes well, fingers crossed!

All of this uproar has united all tourists, everyone from all nationalities talk to each other and we've made a couple of friends, so in that sense it hasn't been too bad, lol, the sunny side of an expensively inconvienent situation.

Also i ran into Andrew Maloney and his GF Renae from high school, small world, lol.

Hopefully these plans will stick!! Anyway, it's time for dessert, we'll keep ya'all posted on the hap hap. Missing you all!!

Love Kris and Sam (especially Sam) mwa oxoxxoxoxoxo

Good news. Malaysia also has a lot to offer and Singapore is certainly a very beautiful destination. You may have missed what your heart was set on, but more importantly you are both safe and still have a lot of time to enjoy yourselves and look at other beautiful parts of Asia. Let us know if you need extra (not a problem) and how we can arrange that - don't just sit in a hotel but explore and relish in the beauty of Malaysia and Singapore.
Love Mum and Dad

We are watching your trip with interest. We go in twice most days. Malaya should be something excitingly new for you both. If you go to Singapore we'll give you the address of the house we lived in for 2 years 1970-72.
Hoping to hear you're out of Thailand very soon.
Look after each other and lots of hugs and kisses.

I'm so glad your both safe! You must be very disapointed not to be able to go to Cambodia, but it's great that you will get the chance to see Malaysia, which is such a beautiful country with so many things to do.
All the best, Karen.

Hi Sami & Kris, I have been thinking about the both of you and wondering how you were. I spoke to Carrolyn & John on Friday when it clicked with me that you were there. Disappointing that your plans for Cambodia didn't work out, but I am sure it will be just as exciting exploring Malaysia, any new place is a great place to explore and I can imagine the both of you making friends wherever you go, take care, have lots of fun and lots of adventures, Love Jenny
