Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – 18 days…
Well, I’m on 21 pages out of the goal of 35 and just another 7 days left to go. If I maintain my 2 pages a day pattern, it should be no problem. Although I should probably do a bit more each day so that I can have some more flexibility, but we’ll see. For…

Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – 41 days to go and 8 until Hong Kong
I’m long overdue to post some pics. Sorry… The really good news is that the rain seems to have broken for a bit and we’re back in sunny weather. The past couple of days we’ve been out on the scooter for most of the day exploring the island of Phuket. I’ll post more on that…

Who Cares?
Okay, so I’m having a bit of a pity party on my behalf. So, if you’re not in the mood to read my whinging or just don’t feel like reading anything down, this is not the post for you! First, there really is nothing in my life that is so bad. I have a great…
