Hey All,

Thanks for the messages ....

We in Luang Prabang (old capital) now and hanging out here for a few days before heading north to the thai border. There we are gonna hang out wih some monkeys (no i'm not talking bout Amy). Project called the Gibbon Experience, which is basically living in the rainforest canopy travelling via zip lines. Should be fun.

All is well, we had a great time in Vang Vieng, and tubing was GREAT! Although, Amy got too drunk (yet again) and we missed the bus to Luang Prabang cause she was hung over LOL.

Anyway, see you soon.

Andrew

Sounds like you guys are having a blast. Wishing you well on your travels. Sorry I didn't get to catch up with you before you left. Thanks for the loan of the backpacks while we were in Africa. Did you end up buying a new one? Oh by the way, I'm back at Club Sail! Just a half day a week coordinating the seminars. It's a welcome break from massage which can be quite taxing on the body. Anyways love to you both! and safe travels! love Charm xo

Hope you survived the tubing, all sounds like great fun!!

Marcus and I just did a three day hike, Charlottes Peak, one of the hardest in Tassie, was intense - hours of being knee deep in mud and vertical ascents!

Keep having fun guys,

Lotsa love, M&K xx

Andrew,

Please check your email as I have sent a couple to you.

Hi Mum!,

Holiday is going great despite the fact we just sat on a bus for about 22 hours straight on the trip from Hanoi to Vientiene! My feet got all swollen last night because of all the blood rushing back to them LOL.

Much, much more tropical weather in Laos ... hot and sticky but already loving it. The Mekong river running by the city here is low as it is the dry season, but has a sand bottom - so it looks like there is a beach! pretty weird!

Say hello to Sarah, when she leaving, or not decided?

VEry strange about Mr. Stanfield, is he still teaching?? I thought he left A'ville? Funny he remembers the career stuff too, guess he was actually interested in students lol!

Thanks for the message and talk soon. Andrew & Amy.
