Hi Everyone;
No.... we didn't die in a scooter accident.
Sorry we have not updated our blog in a while, but for the last week we have been on the Islands, and although Internet access is here, it's robbery. Normally, you can pay $1-2/hour,
but down here it's $4-$6/hour. Though this might seem like much, you can easily spend several hours updating a blog, and 2 hours of blogging at this rate is the cost of a dinner; 3 hours is the cost of a room (putting it in those terms).
Anyways, we haven't forgotten, but give a big update once we're out of this rip-off zone.... so please do stay tuned.

Really glad to hear you are okay. I know what you mean about the internet prices and I didn't use the internet on Raileh or at Phi Phi either. I think I found something cheaper on Lanta but cannot remember exactly where.
Hope you are having a wonderful time, monsoon and island rip-offs aside.
Hey,
Back when I was in Nepal/India in '89, it cost $20 per minute to phone home! Hence, my calls were little more than "hey, I'm fine, I'm here, I'm going there, talk to you next month!". Ah, the price of travel in the developing world!
