Overdue Update

I thought it time enough to return to my blog after such an absence away from writing literally anything. The months that have passed in between have moved with such swiftness I can hardly believe it is July already. Anyway, I think my log entries up to now have been too long, even if they were fun to write and think about. However, it wasn't always easy to write them, to find the time and to continue. The main reasons for my lethargy was the slow upload for pictures and the frustration of breaking my Cannon camera in Nha Trang, Viet Nam. Broke one in Lao as well! Also, when I got to Thailand - specifically Pai - my days were all quite the same! I stayed there for 18 days the first time I was there!

Nonetheless, I hope to again write more often over the forthcoming months, when I can. However, I don’t think I will have the time to write on each city I travel to. Perhaps I will write on each country instead, with a short dialogue about each place. So, my rather detailed accounts I had previously jotted I intend to condense into one blog entry, for each country I visit.

Currently I'm in Malaysia and have been here for about seven weeks now. Within the next week I will go to Indonesia once I can get my visa organised at the embassy here in Kuala Lumpur. Then I will stop off at Melaka for a few days before getting a boat to the island of Sumatra in Indonesia. Shortly I will post on Viet Nam and jot a couple of other posts on Cambodia, Thailand and Lao thereafter. Unfortunately there will not be as many photos to post here as I would like, with the camera incidents in Viet Nam and Lao!

Peace,
