I just want to inform you all that our plans are changing a bit. We are now in Malaysia, after spending a few days in Brunei. Our plan had initially been to travel over land to Thailand and up towards Bangkok, stopping along the way to scuba dive. However, recent developments in southern Thailand, including the murder of 8 Thai soldiers a few days ago by rebels and the recent bombing in the Yala provice (right where we would have crossed into Thailand) have made us change our plans. If you want to read about it, visit the BBC.

We now plan, I think, to fly. Although a lot more expensive, we seem to have fewer options now. It just goes to show that you can never be too safe or set plans in stone on these kinds of trips.
We will be in southeast asia for the next six weeks, hopefully visiting Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam before heading to the middle east. We'll try to keep everyone posted.
