hey everyone. just wanted to let u know that i am ok (nowhere near the phuket crash)! i have had a busy few days. visited a place called ninh binh which was ok, not excellent though! it was a pretty boring town, but there was some cool sights to see. I visited Tam Coc, which is a section of the river surrounded my massive limestone cliffs, similar to Halong Bay. I also saw the national park which was good, although the long motorbike ride to get there & back was quite painful! I spent 2 more nights in hanoi, had a really fun time staying at a backpackers hostel, its run by 2 Aussies so everything is really clean & set up so well. I was pretty lazy this second time in Hanoi, but I arrived at the hostel on free beer night, so I couldn't resist! Had bit of a drama yesterday when i was checking my net banking, somebody stole my credit card details somehow, but not my actual card. they spent about $2400 online! had to cancel the card & now the investigation into the fraud will take about a month. but it should all work out, there is no way i am paying the bank the money! i am leaving for laos this afternoon, just met my new tour group- 16 people in it! don't know how i will go learning all the names! I will update soon with more photos & news. :-)

hey amie yeah that sucks about ur card too, i guess we are so vulnerable as tourists, i didnt report my stolen wallet- would take a full day to find the police station n then they dont speak english so, doesnt matter, only about $100 lost. Guess i wont be using my credit card in asia just in case! Its been one month for us today, and have seen so much!! 4 weeks usually flies by in oz, prob the same for u! Well, keep having fun, good luck with stupid fraud! South spain now, med sea real nice xoxo
Hi Amie
I have been checking your blog every few days to see where you are at and how you are enjoying your adventures. I love reading it and would love to be over there too, Asia is such a great place. Just wanted to let you know that Kailey had her baby yesterday morn -19th Sept- 9.06am little baby girl "Summah". Have a great time in Laos, we went to Luang Prabang and I just really loved it there, its so laid back and still so traditional. I preferred it to Thailand. I look forward to reading your next round journey's and please keep safe. Mell
