Heading South...

Hello again!

I have not been posting regularly, sorry. In my defense, it is vacation! I have been keeping notes and slowing filling them in on the different things I've been doing. Probably, when I get back and have a little time on my hands, there will be a wave of posts coming.

Tomorrow morning (February 5), Janet and I are flying to Phuket. We will probably spend a few days on the beaches there before hopefully moving on to some of the smaller islands. We are hoping to visit some of the less crowded islands, which means we may be out of touch for a few days at some point. Some of the smaller islands only have electricity for a few hours each day and many do not have internet connections. Some do, but they are dial-up connections which seem to be only somewhat reliable from the reviews I've read.

Some of the places we are currently looking at include Ko Phi Phi (which will be crowded, but is supposed to offer some of the most beautiful beaches), Ko Lanta and Ko Lipe. There are also a number of other islands in the area and our ability to get transportation between them and accomodations may also change our route.

Wherever we end up, I'll be taking pictures to post! If you haven't checked lately, I have uploaded some pictures from Bangkok, Ayutthaya and Kanchanaburi. I also have a few more to post when I next get the chance...
