We spent a couple more days wandering around Hanoi with no real itinerary. It’s a great place to walk out your door and just keep choosing left, right, or straight. A friendly smile and a wave. If we received any reaction at all to a camera being pointed in someone’s … Read More
Around Hanoi
Hanoi is a very walkable city. I could wander out the door here every day, choose a different direction, and sit down to eat and rest just about anywhere along the way. But if you want to get somewhere quick… the mototaxi helmets are clearly not designed for a giant’s … Read More
Roaming Around Bangkok
A long day spent trying to see as much as we could in Bangkok. I’m going to have a portfolio of people in Bangkok doing risky things on ladders. I thought for a moment I might capture a death on camera. The Golden Buddha at Wat Traimit. Five point five … Read More
Night at the Raj
You have to love a beautiful home, full of expensive art, turned into a museum. Even more so when the owner, a silk magnate, was a one-time U.S. OSS operative who was on the outs with the CIA, and disappeared under mysterious circumstances in the Malaysian jungle with no body … Read More
Bangkok Temple Day
Our days were packed in Bangkok. There’s always another market, another temple, another interesting street, or more food to eat. The obligatory tuk-tuk shot. It appears that maybe we aren’t the only tourists in Bangkok at the moment. The Grand Palace. Lowe has been on a boat too long. He … Read More
Hauling to Bangkok
The boat came out of the water for a fresh coat of bottom paint and to have the hulls polished. Two rather mind-numbing labor-intensive jobs that I had zero desire to do myself. So the same day the boat came out of the water we climbed onto a little plane … Read More
Simple O-Ring Replacement
Not a whole lot going on around here lately. Kids have been hanging out with friends, leaving Ali and I with nothing but boat projects to knock off. Mostly just cleaning and emptying. There is a free table next to the marina office and it’s gotten to the point that … Read More
Langkawi Day Out
We’ve been pretty well situated out on Rebak Island. The kids have friends they’re off with all day, and Ali and I are just plugging away on some boat projects and then spending the afternoons lounging on the beach. There really hasn’t been any reason to head across to Langkawi … Read More
Langkawi New Year
Around Rebak Island there’s a few nice hikes leading off to different beaches where there’s never anybody else around. It’s kind of a running joke that I always order entirely too much food for our family. New Year’s Eve. Syrian food in Malaysia. Delicious. The fire dancing show back at … Read More
