Planning for Southeast Asia

Having lived in Geneva, Switzerland the last couple of years and being able to travel so easily around Europe, moving back to California was a bit of a shock to our travelling nature. Weekend trips to Phoenix just weren't the same as weekend trips to Paris.

So with that in mind we've decided to head back to Southeast Asia where we spent our three week honeymoon in the fall of 2003.

Our tentative itinerary is to fly in to Bangkok and then travel overland to Laos, Cambodia & Vietnam before flying to Myanmar (Burma) and ending up with a week on the beach in southern Thailand.

We are aiming to leave sometime between October and November of 2007 and will be gone about 3 months although this is flexible depending on how we are feeling. It could be longer (possible), it could be shorter (not likely).

Right now we are busily reading as much of the Lonely Planet guides as we can in anticipation of our trip.
