SINGAPORE (3rd-8th Spetember) Singapore was our last stop on the Intrepid tour so were staying in quite a nice hotel, however, we knew that we couldnt stay there once the tour ended so we spent all day looking for a hostel. We finally found one in Little India called the Prince of Wales after hours of looking. Whilst looking Danny saw a girl from Uni that he hadnt seen for 18months walking down the street (she was only in Singapore for 1night so it was very sure...

Well its been a while so we will have to try hard to remember what we have been up to. PENANG (28-30TH August) We left Krabi at 8am and didnt arrive in Penang until 2:30 pm, even though the buses were air conditioned it was still very hot.

We didnt drink much though because after Thailand alcohol seemed really expensive when it went back up t...

On the first day we went tubing (which was basically si...

The ferry made both of us sea sick, especially when a freaky guy facing us (who was wearing a t-shirt with ipood writen on it and a picture of a guy on the toilet) th...

So after paying money to trek through the jungle at 32 degrees, you would think that we might have learnt our lesson... but oh no we thought it would be fun to be active and sporty again, so we hired bikes to cycle to every temple in the WHOLE of Siem Reap. Yesterday it was raining so we only visited Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom in a Tuk Tuk, which left us to cycle 21 miles today (we can hardly even sit down now), and on our way back we got caught in a thunde...
