... over like a broken record, in my best New Zealand accent : “At this detour, contestants must stop this middle-aged American woman from buying every silk scarf she runs across … the contestants that keep her to the lowest amount spent get to move onto the PitStop …warning … last team to arrive may be eliminated”.

You could spend a week at this market and never see it all … in fact, I could see how easy it would be ...

... room, dirty, cramped and not particulary traveller friendly, nowhere to store your bags, small and dirty showers and a bit on the pricey side considering the ***** service you get. In Asia (so far I dont imagine this will continue) they've been spotless, spacious, quirkly and with chatacter, nice friendly vibes, lots of decent facilities and free stuff (brekky, tes & coffee) and FREE and fast internet something which Aus seems unable to offer.

... and swing it gently, hoping to cool it off. Amazingly enough this worked and five minutes later we were backtracking so I could take proper photos.

As we were walking to the next spot, which we weren’t sure we’d be able to get into since we weren’t dressed in pants and closed shoes, a guard came out and began chatting to us. I’ve already mentioned that Thai people are extremely friendly and ...

I hopefully will be doing both.

managed to book it up - altogether it cost about 60pounds one way.

... India. Taxi drivers queued up to take you into the city and didn't try to rip you off, take you somewhere you didn't want to go or sell you anything!! The roads into the city were so smooth, quiet and seemed to involve a highway code - we weren't used to this!!

We were dropped off at one end of Khoa San Rd and ran the gauntlet to the other end - it wasn't so bad but it was early and we did get the slightest feeling that we could have ...

He had the best reaction. Dr. Bonnie and Cindy both loved theirs as well. I also seem to have lost weight. A lot of people have commented on it including my parents from last year.
