Tuesday, June 29th, 2010Adendum to Post on Bangkok
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010Just a quick add-in. 1. This photo was too good to pass up.

The thing about Squat Toilets
Thursday, June 24th, 2010I had been a little worried that so far during this trip, we haven’t been able to share some particularly embarrassing stories.

Mayhem: Thailand, Leftover Laos…and Myanmar (Burma)?
Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010We’re here in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where we’re enjoying fast food, fast cars, fast bikes, fast people and fast internet. Before we launch ourselves into Thailand, we want to notify our readers that a collected decision has been made to head into Myanmar a week or two early…we’re going tomorrow to the border town [...]
