OMG This feels like forever since we have updated,
Well from Laos where we last updated - we headed back to the hole we call Bangkok, where we found Natch (but they had sold out)! Then we took a overnight trip with some friends to Kanchanaburi where the bridge over the River Kwai is - its was really lovely and we only wish that we had longer to spend there.
From here we moved down to the thai islands - we spent 6 days on Ko Tao, which was heaven we were absolutly shattered and needed a well deserved rest - so 6 nights on a beach front bungalow was amazing - lots of snorkelling/ tanning and sleeping! After Ko Tao we headed over to Ko Phangan for the full moon - which was kaos (just imagine 10,000 -15,000 on a beach drunk on buckets and raving!) it was great but we are def to old and sensible for that!
We then headed from here into Malaysia - may i ad by being a stow-away on the overnight boat (where clare couldn't even stand straight - and yeah it was just like it sounds!) Random but very funny! Eventually getting into Malaysia we headed for Penang - which was amazing, we both loved it!!!!! So much to see and do - it is much hotter in Malaysia, so we have been roasting!
From beautiful Penang we headed to the Cameron Highlands - which was stunning, we visited tea plantations and learnt so much about a good old cuppa! Plus we drank lots of tea and ate far to many scones - to remind us of home! We also visited Strawberry farms that are everywhere due to the climate - so strawberry jam was yummy!
We then moved on to KL which although was a huge bustling city, we both agreed was very nice (but anything compared to Bangkok is nice mind you) There was lots to see and do - but not as cool as Hong Kong.
So here we are now in Melaka - only arrived this morning and we love it already - very picturesque and lots of shopping to be done!!!!
Sorry its all very vague- we hadn't realised we were so behind, all you need to know is that we are seeing and doing lots and we have fallen in love with Malaysia, (its my fav place - clare) We head to Singapore on Tuesday then fly on Friday to Oz - we are looking forward to some cooler weather and rest, we are still having so much fun and Daws has had a lovely birthday, thanks for the messages! More pictures soon xxxxxxx
