Bloody Aussies eh?

"This is the worst aspect of the competitive traveller—an inability to understand that travel is different things to different people and that, well, it isn’t a competition." - nice.

Hi Stuart. Pleased to see it's not just us Poms that are the whingers ;-) Which beaches on KPN? Can you remember. Looking forward to Luang Prabang. We loved it there! J & J (tracking a few days behind at the moment!)

I did the slow boat with my kids a few years ago and we sat up on two padded benches facing each other with the locals. Conversation was limited but it was a vast improvement on sitting with the backpackers, who were blasting shit music and getting v drunk up the front. Ugh! But even that couldn’t diminish the beauty of the journey. I loved sitting with my legs hanging over the side, buffalo (or whatever they are) spotting!
