Vacation Hangover
I'm back from my grand Southeast Asia adventure, healthy, safe and with the worst jetlag I have ever experienced. (That hasn't kept me away from happy hour and dinner parties, though.) My condo looks like it has been hit by a souvenir tsunami and it may stay that way until I can get enough energy to do something about it.
So I thought I would share a few pics with more to come. Promise.
Highlights: I never once felt unsafe, the food was fantastic, the people were friendly and every day was the best day. Just when you didn't think you could be more impressed, you were. Cambodia was a wonderful surprise, although our guides' personal stories of the Khmer Rouge years were gut churning and heart wrenching. One of these days I'll finally rent the "Killing Fields" and think of the people I met while there.
I would go back to Vietnam and Cambodia in a heartbeart. We only had a day and a half in Bangkok and I'm ready to venture further into Thailand. Darn me for not being independently wealthy with time on my hands...

Welcome back!! The pictures are excellent. Get lots of rest & maybe take some airborne or something in case you picked up something on the plane! All that travel & excitement wears you down and then all that recycled air....blaugh, I learned my lesson coming back from Hawaii...I was in bed for a week.
ANYway....get some rest and I can't wait to read more & see more pics! Wow, between you & lauri and your vacations...I very well may go ahead and book something. I wonder if Elvis can fend for himself for a couple of weeks.
[this is about time] Finally! Your lively and luminous photos are treatful, but tell us more!
Glad you're back, and as excited as you were when you left.
Welcome back! Glad you had a good time!
Welcome back Amy, you've been missed!

Like everyone else, I am looking forward to the stories of your adventures.
I know, yuh are all playing the world's smallest violin just for me! :D

the pictures are awesome, and I am waiting with bated breath for the write-up.
With my jet lag, I've been missing me, too. One of these days I'll get to the further postings. It's been harder to recover than I thought it would be.
