Tubing in Vang Vieng is not was it used to be and that's probably better that way. Number of bars has quit along the river and all the zip line, ropes and dangerous games have been completely shut down. As a results the amount of backpacker in the area has probably been divided by ten! Since last year there have been no death occurrences, and the atmosphere in the remaining three bars has gone from trashy to friendly. It's now possible to take upon other activities (aside from getting *hit faced) such as pétanque, volley ball or basket ball. And you can still get a pint of nice cold beer while you're at it! We preferred it this way ;)!
We left Bangkok yesterday and moved towards the northern part of the country. The plan for the following days is to visit Sukhothai and travel north to Chiang Mai.
We are only a few days away from the start of the Asian trip. It's time to reload batteries, spent a bit time with family and enjoy the last winter of the year! ;) Can you feel the cold already...?
Here's the masterpiece of our Iceland trip- hope you enjoy it! It sure was fun goofing around with GoPro and do our 'walk' (that you will see fast-forwarded in the end) everywhere where we could just set up the camera! The credits go out to Christian who put this video together (not an easy task considering the amount of material he had to deal with)! We'll be forever grateful that we got to share this unforgettable adventure with our favourite travel couple! Can't wait to take over Southeast Asia together in January- See ya in BANGKOK bitches! ;)
