We're off!


So we're off on our trip in 1 week! In case this is new news, we're travelling around Southeast Asia for the summer, seeing the sights, eating the food, snorkling with the fishies, and attending a conference. People always ask us where are you going in Southeast Asia? Hopefully this map answers all of those inquiries. Red = flying, black = land travel. We're not flying any Cathay Pacific or Malaysian Airlines, so watch the newspapers for any flight disasters in the area.

We start off in Taiwan, meeting up with friends for a few days, and just miss out on what sounds like a fancy dancy reception at the top of the really tall building in Taipei (look it up! it's super big, especially compared to all the other buildings). We are currently woefully unprepared for our first stop (although not for the rest!), so if you've been to Taiwan, let us know, we need tips.

Also, we are now accepting postcard requests. E-mail us with your current address.

Hey Dave & Sara,

You gotta eat at the road side food stalls in Malaysia. And watch out for transvestite prostitues in Bankok...but I'm sure you guys already looked into that. Have fun and don't hold anything back!!

Don't drink the water in Thailand - I can tell you that first hand.

Have a great time!

Hi, Sara. Glad to read that you arrived safely and have recuperated. You and Dave seem to be in the groove already. Hello to Dave.

A housekeeping question. Where do you imagine the Thailand and Malaysia book you seek is -- in a box in the bedroom closet or a box in the basement or where? I checked one box of books in the bedroom and it had a couple of Thailand books and some Montreal books but not the one you are seeking.

Love from Dad
