The side effects of diving – an earache 🙁

Visiting the Taj Mahal, the COOLEST THING EVER! Its probably just the hype around it, but it really is an unbelievable feeling to be standing right there.
We take the norry, aka Cambodian train! A bamboo raft, set on the original network built by the French, and powered by a motorcycle engine. Locals still take it short distances — I think we caught a bunch of school kids going home. If nothing else, it is very scenic and very fun.
Our first day back in Bangkok after India — priority number 1? papaya salad!
End of delightful Day 2 of Thakhek Loop, we stopped in the Thong Lor village right outside the famous 7.5 km cave. The cave comes complete with a river, a boat trip, and is definitely worth the trip. As is the countryside in Thong Lor – just beautiful.
Our hostel in Yanshuo – Yangshuo 11 – had fantastic views (cannot say the same for night time peace and quite, but hey sacrifices have to be made).
Boating around Lake Inle, checking out the floating gardens with our guide. A very nice way to spend 8 hours.
