I found Nemo and his mates, and he was hanging around Koh Phi Phi in an anemone the whole time, not in some dentists office in Sydney as the movie would have you believe. If you thought the news couldn't get any better than finding Nemo. it just did: I have finished my 'PADI Open Water Scuba Diving' course! Posted by traci at 2:56 pm. Links to this post.

Backpackers doing it in style. Friday, July 28, 2006. The Bowel Movements Conversation. Honestly, I'm getting pretty sick of India. It seems, a lot of the people I meet here feel the same - apart from all the hippy nuts and berries religion tourists that is. Seriously, what is up with these people? They come from all over the affluent parts of the globe, Europe, Australia, the US or wherever, and their itinerary will always include 'finding' themselves. They spout such bollocks as:. No special equipment ...

Backpackers doing it in style. Saturday, February 25, 2006. One Final Note On Vietnam. Be aware, throw away slang comments can cause unexpected results in Vietnam. For instance, avoid saying things like "Pig's Arse", or "Bollocks" in restaurants. Posted by Tim at 4:30 pm. Links to this post. Monday, February 20, 2006. One last note on Vietnam. I don't think that we had one bad thing to say about Vietnam in our blog, which is kind of ironic, because the Vietnamese government censors it. Links to this post.

This is a bit of a catch up post, as I have been a bit slack of late. but there is a reason for that (other than my slackness that is), and that reason is Dengue fever. Dengue fever is definately not on my top 10 list of diseases. I have just spent a week in hospital with it in Bangkok (the flashest hospital I have ever seen, more like a 5 star hotel! So basically I havent been arsed to sit in front of a computer! Any of vario...

Backpackers doing it in style. Wednesday, October 26, 2005. Today, Adelaide. Tomorrow. The World. It is now finally upon us. We have 3 days of work left, then a weekend of partying and saying goodbye in Adelaide before we fly out on the 1st of November for Sydney (Tim) and Brisbane (Traci), to say goodbye to rellies.

Backpackers doing it in style. Thursday, March 30, 2006. Tim and I delayed our trip to Tiger Leaping Gorge by a day or so, so we could spend an extra day with our mates Tess and Andy who we have been travelling on and off with since we left Vietnam. However, when the day finally arrived, we were perplexed. If the entrance fee to get into the TLG was 50 yuan, how on earth could Mama drive you to the gorge AND get you inside for only 40 yuan? On our second day, Tim and I set off under threatening skies, re...

Backpackers doing it in style. Wednesday, June 28, 2006. The Amazing Spiti Valley Jeep Trip. Six days of being driven through the beautiful Spiti valley by a very consciencious driver, getting taken to interesting buddhist monasteries and gompas along the way, and maybe the most important thing, getting out of Manali. Possibly the best way to document this incredible journey that we shared with Jamie, Ben and Ellie is to show you a photo diary of each day, along with a little description. Enjoy. Ll the r...

It's gorgeous here and is actually a UNESCO world heritage site due to the Chinese influenced houses and buildings in the old town. We're having an awesome time just wandering around looking at them and taking some photos. For the rest of the day, we wandered around the little town taking photos and calling out "Chuc Mung Nam Moi!

Backpackers doing it in style. Sunday, May 28, 2006. After dropping Chris off at the airport, Tim and I picked up Carol and Emily from Jackie's Day n' Nite, and we all headed down south to Palolem beach, full of anticipation (it's supposed to be lovely). Tim had to drive the loan car the whole way (I was not confident enough to drive in India! But we found that the traffic wasn't too bad at all. being a Sunday, and it was a very scenic drive with lots of beautiful buildings etc. Look at the shops! Palole...
