We changed totally our original plan and are now going to visit SE Asia before Australia and New Zealand returning home via Los Angeles.
Travelling before the middle of December helped to reduce the flight costs which peak from around the 16th onwards until the middle of January, this has meant that we could spend more time in SE Asia an area we have never ventured to....in fact until we get to America it's all new!
Sadly we will miss out on Christmas this year with family and friends but we hope that by keeping in touch this way it will make it easier for us to let you know what we're upto, as we turn back the clock and head off as the young'uns do. (only with a bit more comfort....we hope).
During our planning we've had a variety of hurdles...flooding in Bangkok really looked to be a major concern and when they started to put a bounty on the capture of crocodiles it seemed at bit too far to go to get a cheap handbag.Then Qantas had industrial problems which hopefully will not cause us too many issues as we make our way round the world.Trains in Thailand which seem to be fully booked as soon as they become available but hey who said this was going to be a walk in the sun.
