Thursday 24 November 2005

Today seemed to come and go in a blur of I do not know what. With our books and information about alternatives for Indonesia to hand our aim was to come up with some rough plan and route to follow. It was not to be though and thinking about it now I am struggling to understand why.

Not knowing anything about these countries I had settled down to start to read through the books and look at places I fancied going to. I find it hard to do because you are taking in a lot of information and have no context to frame it in or ideas about where different spots are and how feasible it is to get from A to B. Realistically though, as we will need to get visas and money sorted before we go, reading the books and surfing the net is the only way to do it.

We spent the day trying to formulate plans but both realised that neither of us was really in the mood, so we called it a day knowing that it would still have to be done. Our main concern is getting visas for China, which a quick phone call to the embassy confirmed that we can do in Vancouver. The rest we will have to sort either in Hong Kong, China or when we get to the border of Laos/Vietnam, depending on which bits we eventually decide to go to!!

One good point from today is that finally, after two days in the laundry, Morty’s carpets are finally dry so it meant we had warm feet. Its amazing the difference a bit of carpet can make!
