Wow I have got some catching up to do! So today would be our last day in Cambodia so technically a travel day. Luckily our flight to Bangkok was not till early afternoon so we still had some time in this beautiful country. After I went to breakfast I needed to get a little money for the day so I needed an ATM. Like I said before Cambodia uses the US dollar so it’s very easy to understand what you…
So today was going to be special. We were finally going to see Angkor Wat! As stated yesterday it is a temple complex just outside of Siem Reap and is the largest religious monument in the world. If you come to Siem Reap you are going to Angkor Wat. It is not cheap either. It was $37.50 each. That does include three temple areas. You can hardly blame them on the price as part of the proceeds helps to go to…
Today our flight was leaving at 9:20 so we decided to have one last rooftop breakfast at 6:45 and then head to th airport at about 7:15. We knew it would take about 30 minutes to get there and we were hoping that it would not take long to get our ticket and get through security. The ride there was just as fun and beautiful as it had been two days before. We sat back and just took it all in….
Well as you may have noticed I skipped a few days. Our last day in Chiang Mai was super fun as we ran around town and visited more Wats and shopping areas. We even went to Chinatown which had a super cool vibe all its own. Finally Sunday night we went to the Sunday night Walking street. It was super crowded but had lots of interesting vendors selling items and food. I am not even sure what I had for…
So we had originally planned on making a day trip to Chiang Rai which is about a 3 hour trip away from Chiang Mai. It has beautiful temples but when we looked at the bus schedules all of the early busses were sold out. We were kind of disappointed but also a little relieved because a total of 6 hours on the bus was not exactly appealing even if you are rewarded with the city views of Chiang Rai. Anyway…
Well if you are like me you are thankful for each and everyday. Yet some days are just better than other days……lucky for us this was one of those days! Our plan was to go to an all day cooking school called the Thai Secret Cooking School. We had once again gotten the suggestion by watching this Vlog over at Kara and Nate’s You Tube channel! Now I know what you are thinking….Lyn does not need to learn how to…
Today is the day I have been waiting for….we are going to Chiang Mai! I have read so much about this place and it has been on my must visit list for the last two years. Our flight was at 9 so we decided to get a cab around 7. When we checked out at the hotel desk I asked if they could get us a cab and what would the price be. It ended up being a little less…
Chill Day in Koh Lanta So after a great travel day yesterday we woke up to perfect weather. Sunny and not too hot at least not yet. We went down to the breakfast buffet and enjoyed a great assortment while sitting just a few hundred feet from the ocean. They had everything that we could want. It was the usual fair, along with some things that we had not tried before. We decided that after breakfast we would hire some…
After going to sleep about 11 we needed to get up at 4 AM to catch our 7 am flight to Krabi. Usually 4 AM is crazy early but since we are struggling to get in the right time zone we were all three awake before any alarms went off. We got our act together and caught a cab using the Grab app and were on our way by 5 AM. We arrived at the airport at 5:30 and had…
Hmmmm where to start?!?!?? We have been traveling for over 24 hours and have just finished up our first Jet lagged day in Bangkok. I could start with some of the super nice cool people that we met or maybe the free drinks I got on our first flight or maybe our first scam attempt complete with written words on a leaf and a tuk tuk driver or maybe the Presidential Palace in all its glory or maybe I should…
