the trip

so ive finally completed these posts recapping the trip amanda and i took to southeast asia for our summer vacation. for two weeks we travelled to taiwan, cambodia, and thailand, having a great time and learning some things along the way.

i had an ambitious idea to record it all...write it chronologically backwards, so itd appear chronologically correct on the blog. unfortunately, i think i bit off more than i could chew, as it turned into a big project which left me writing it in parts with big breaks. its finished now, but if you were reading last week, or two weeks ago, you were probably left hanging and confused by some incomplete parts. sorry. hopefully it all makes sense now.

here was our itinerary:

saturday, august 5 - taipei, taiwan
sunday, august 6 - phnom penh, cambodia
monday, august 7 - siem riep, cambodia
tuesday, august 8 - siem riep, cambodia
wednesday, august 9 - siem riep, cambodia
thursday, august 10 - bangkok, thailand
friday, august 11 - bangkok, thailand
saturday, august 12 - ko samui, thailand
sunday, august 13 - ko samui, thailand
monday, august 14 - ko samui, thailand
tuesday, august 15 - ko samui, thailand
wednesday, august 16 - phnom penh, cambodia
thursday, august 17 - taipei, taiwan*
