March 24-25, 2010 – 454-455 – Mui Ne, Vietnam
Mui Ne is a tiny resort town on a Vietnamese beach. The beach is nothing much but every guest house boasts itself as a resort, no matter how small or large, and nearly every one has a divine swimming pool that is too inviting to refuse.

March 22-23, 2010 – Day 452-453 – Nha Trang, Vietnam
With two hot, sweaty days and nothing of interest within the city to see or do, we spent two hot, sweaty days on Nha Trang beach soaking up the last bit of sun we can before we go home.
You can really taste the heart attack
March 21, 2010 – Day 451 – Nha Trang, Vietnam
It was a fierce battle. One that may just change how history books are written: the massacre on bus 312, Hoi An to Nha Trang. [insert ominous music here]

March 17-20, 2010 – Day 447-450 – Hoi An, Vietnam
The past few days we have been shopping and walking around in Hoi An’s seemingly endless array of shops.

February 6, 2010 – Day 408 – Kep, Cambodia
Swinging in a seaside hammock watching a bright pink and red sunset after a fat crab dinner drowned in Kampot pepper sauce and ice cold Angkor beer…we could get used to this kind of life.

February 5, 2010 – Day 407 – Sihanoukville, Cambodia
Sihanoukville is not our favorite place. The beaches are so-so, the food is pretty good but a little pricey, and there are a few too many loud-spoken foreigners eager to brag about their own humanitarian activities here. A little disappointed that we traveled all the way down here for this but you can’t win all the time. Heading to Kep tomorrow morning to have a look and eat some fresh crabs and try the famous Kampot pepper.

February 4, 2010 – Day 406 – Sihanoukville, Cambodia
Bussing south to the beach from the less picturesque city of Phnom Penh sounds like a pretty nice endeavor. We were heading to Otres Beach in Sihanoukville, known to be a quiet and relaxing beach. We arrived in a tuk tuk via a dirt and sand covered path with alternating giant rocks and giant holes.
Ahhh.. beer and icecream
January 26-27, 2010 – Day 397-398 – Koh Tao, Thailand
Spent two days diving, swimming, and lying in the sun. Guess it’s not too exciting to tell, but nice to enjoy! Tomorrow we head back to Bangkok to get ready to go to Cambodia the day after. Hurray for travel days…
Us!
January 25, 2010 – Day 395 – Koh Tao, Thailand
You know the saying, You win some, you lose some? Today was one of those days where we lost.
Moments before the blood bath
January 24, 2010 – Day 395 – Koh Tao, Thailand
Saben packed in two dives today before lunch! Starting out at around 6:30 am he was loading gear and heading out on the Big Blue boat. First dive spot of the day was splendid chompron pinnacle. A place famous for its sharks! (Due to Saben’s lack of underwater camera the following photos are brought to you via flickr. Bull shark via user cliffandally.)
