Surprisingly we managed to get onto the blog here in China!!! Pictures that follow are a continuation of the last posting- journey from south to north of Thailand!<br /><br />In the meantime- here we are in Beijing and all is well. We picked up our Russian transit visas today!!!!! YAY!!!!! That was no easy task, let me tell you! Hours of deliberation, research and running around... both in Laos and China! But finally passports are in-hand and we are booked on the Trans-Siberian this coming Saturday at 23.00! Naturally we are only allowed to stay for 9 days due to all the sculduggery we would have got involved with whilst in Russia...paranoid Russians! Anyways, we have just enough time to get in to Moscow and out again the following day, into Kiev, Ukraine! We are slowly moving towards civilisation as we know it yet again!<br />Yippee Europe here we come!!!<br /><br />Until then we will continue to enjoy the slow life here in Beijing which really is a pretty cool town to be spending time in. We're staying at Lasse's, whom we got to know on the Trans-Mongolian on our way out and who now lives here, we're eating steamed dumplings with chilli sauce..mmm...and sleeping in and sitting in cafes watching the world go by. You might think that surely we would have had enough of that after a year of travelling, but with such little time left we are really trying to enjoy ever minute to the max!<br /><br />That's it for now.

Songkram is a water festival and as you can tell by the pictures below we spent the afternoon and evening drinking beer, splashing water on everyone and generally getting wet! That is, Chris did the splashing and I did the snapping!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kszWyY3NI/AAAAAAAAClU/vfSjkZqQMQM/s1600/P4130120.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kszWyY3NI/AAAAAAAAClU/vfSjkZqQMQM/s320/P4130120.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448883592682706" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksNBxnFAI/AAAAAAAAClM/Twuw6dponxA/s1600/P4130119_1.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksNBxnFAI/AAAAAAAAClM/Twuw6dponxA/s320/P4130119_1.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448225117246466" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksMb1iIcI/AAAAAAAAClE/cXtz0sTG_lE/s1600/P4130094.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksMb1iIcI/AAAAAAAAClE/cXtz0sTG_lE/s320/P4130094.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448214933152194" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksLog4nkI/AAAAAAAACk8/Z3ZN1zNsH9Q/s1600/P4130087.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksLog4nkI/AAAAAAAACk8/Z3ZN1zNsH9Q/s320/P4130087.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448201156337218" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksLE0_wxI/AAAAAAAACk0/eVJ81AC3H4M/s1600/P4130080.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksLE0_wxI/AAAAAAAACk0/eVJ81AC3H4M/s320/P4130080.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448191577015058" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksK3tw6uI/AAAAAAAACks/YUnQWXvLsCA/s1600/P4130067.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9ksK3tw6uI/AAAAAAAACks/YUnQWXvLsCA/s320/P4130067.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465448188057021154" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kgEQdzzmI/AAAAAAAACkk/k450jaBScys/s1600/P4130109.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kgEQdzzmI/AAAAAAAACkk/k450jaBScys/s320/P4130109.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465434880302370402" /></a><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kgDMbvs-I/AAAAAAAACkM/n-4gl3C1s3I/s1600/P4130076.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9kgDMbvs-I/AAAAAAAACkM/n-4gl3C1s3I/s320/P4130076.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465434862040101858" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9keup6-ijI/AAAAAAAACj8/jSYmBQ1Rj3Q/s1600/P4130061_1.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9keup6-ijI/AAAAAAAACj8/jSYmBQ1Rj3Q/s320/P4130061_1.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465433409666845234" /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5455778216402891107-8811193314551719978?l=chrisandsilje.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Siljehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10670927125489854593noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455778216402891107.post-27044310091526215662010-04-27T06:33:00.000-07:002010-04-27T07:56:29.303-07:00<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">After deciding that Thailand wasn't a country I was particularly interested in, I am now realising why so many people come here! The past 3 weeks have been unbelievable!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">10/04/10 </div><div style="text-align: center;">After saying goodbye to dad and David (and a great round-trip of Cambodia), we left Bangkok and the Red Shirt demonstrations behind, and left for Koh Tao on the southern east coast. Had our first and only nightmare journey on a bus that which was oversold, leaving us barely with seats to sit in. A 4am break-down was also part of the experience! Spent the evening with 3 Swedes who, without realising that I could understand every single word they were saying, spent the early part of the evening slagging us off! Chanced upon them later the next day though, when I casually asked: Hei, hvordan gar det?/ Hey how are you?- much to their surprise! Tji-hi!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In Koh Tao we had a brilliant time learning how to open water scuba dive. with Halvard, our Norwegian instructor! Swimming around at 18 metres below with an oxygen tank on your back, watching moray eels, trigger fish, black-tip sharks and other beautifully coloured tropical fish and corals passing you by was truly incredible!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We stayed in a beautiful bungalow with our own kitchen!!! Finally got to prepare our own breakfasts- milk (!), bread, salami and cheese...mmmm!!! Spent our days basking in the sun at a beach with the most stunning clear, turquoise water, and the evenings playing cards on the balcony, drinking wine, watching the red, orange, pink and purple sunsets! Enjoying life to the max!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">24/04/10 </div><div style="text-align: center;">However the Thai experience didn't seem complete without a swim with a turtle, so on Halvard's advice we set off for the Similan Islands on the west coast in search of those beautiful creatures. Once there we managed to sneak in a day of snorkelling on the last day of the season, where we visited 3 of the 8 Similan Islands off the coast. And there it was- on the first snorkel-the most beautiful of sights- a huge Green Turtle came swimming effortlessly and elegantly towards us! A dream of many years was fulfilled!!!! It swam with us for about 10 minutes- it came so close we could have touched it! Chris even had a nose to nose experience! I can't describe it- we felt truly blessed that day! The highlight of this year-long trip for me!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It is really quiet here in Khao Lak where we are staying, with the high season truly over. We've decided to stay on a little longer to enjoy the sights in peace and quiet, free of tourists! Have enjoyed the afternoon showers, thunder and lightning immensely after 6 months of scorching heat and sunshine. Yesterday we hired a motorbike and went off on a little explore when we chanced upon the most beautiful waterfall! Had it all to ourselves for about an hour, showered in it and swam in the little pool below! Today we headed off in the opposite direction and came across an even bigger one- 60 metres high! We're absolutely gob-smacked at experiencing all of this! Tomorrow we have an elephant trek booked in the national park, followed by a trip to the hot springs! Yay!!! Needless to say we are not in a rush to head back to Bangkok and the trouble happening there! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">After Thailand, it is definitely time to start the long journey back home! We've decided to skip Nepal, unfortunately, because of time and money. We'll be popping into Laos for a week or so before heading back into China, travelling a different route back to Beijing where we'll be catching up with Lasse whom we met on the Trans-Mongolian on the way down and who still lives there. We're really excited about getting back on the Trans-Siberian again, by-passing Mongolia this time, non-stop to Moscow! More card-playing, hours of looking out the window at the world passing by, and of course, the occasional vodka accompanied by some caviar. Yammie!!! Hope to make it to St.Petersburg after Moscow and then- straka vegen hem gjennom Europa (all the way home back through Europe!)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">That's all for now! Lots of love to you all back home! Thinking of you and missing you!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Silje (and Chris)</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S9b6sQUFLOI/AAAAAAAACjU/Yjcu80G7B_s/s320/P4250307.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464830836061056226" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px; " /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; ">Two very happy people, minutes after that beautiful turtle experience!</span></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5455778216402891107-2704431009152621566?l=chrisandsilje.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Siljehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10670927125489854593noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455778216402891107.post-1908482215226646792010-04-09T04:42:00.000-07:002010-04-22T00:43:30.026-07:00<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S81OfR_w3fI/AAAAAAAACic/vX2MkDwS2Lo/s1600/P4080399.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S81OfR_w3fI/AAAAAAAACic/vX2MkDwS2Lo/s320/P4080399.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462108222384037362" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">The day after we said goodbye to David- our travel co-ordinator and back-up man, without whom this journey would not have been possible! </div><div style="text-align: center;">BIG LOVE TO THE CHEESEBURGER KING!!!</div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S81Oe9G-1ZI/AAAAAAAACiU/BUBR8M_WhQI/s1600/P4070387.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S81Oe9G-1ZI/AAAAAAAACiU/BUBR8M_WhQI/s320/P4070387.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462108216777168274" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">08/04/10</div><div style="text-align: center;">And then the holiday was over and it was time to say goodbye!

It was not an easy thing to do- the children and every day spent at the orphanage have left a permanent mark- a joyful one that is! It was a physically and emotionally quite draining last month- Chris with his 3 week long diarrhoeal ordeal, the arrival of the hottest month of the year, the challenges presented us in handing handover to the local staff and the knowledge of the fact that we would be leaving the children which have gotten so fond of, behind.<div><br /><div>We had a brilliant last day- we organised a sports day with sack, egg and spoon race (see justgiving.com/siljeandchris), we had face painting which took on a life of its own and ended up as full body painting (see new pictures), we snacked and drank fizzy drinks and finally we danced and boogied!!! It was a day to remember!!! I hope that with our teaching, our movie nights (46 children cramped in front of a laptop to watch Kung Fu Panda!!!), our sports and games, and the new sports field we have left something behind which the children will continue to benefit from and which they will continue to think of as happy times!</div><div><br /></div><div>We're now back in Phnom Penh and we're all 'rucksacked' up again after travelling so lightly back and forth to the capital for our weekend breaks for 4 months! We're off to the coastal town of Kampot for a few days- where apparently you can sample the world's finest pepper- the Kampot pepper! </div><div><br /></div><div>Monday the 29th March 2010 is an important day as it is the day when my father, Mr Hoyden and our friend, Mr Haines come out to join us for 10 days on a mini-tour around Kampuchea!!! After 8 months of living in each other's pockets and having only each other to rely on and converse with- this will be a welcome change! I know for a fact that Mr Dobson agrees with me on this one :-) !!!!! At the end of the 10 days we'll all be crossing into Thailand and Bangkok together and Chris and I will travel to the south of Thailand after they're gone. </div><div><br /></div><div>The plan after Thailand is still not very clear- it all depends on money and time now that we are actually having to start planning our return!! We're hoping to be able to visit Nepal for some trekking in the Himalayas, in which case we need to cross over into Myanmar and India after we're finished in Thailand. After Nepal, we'll go back north into China to catch a train to the border of Kazakhstan. From there we'll get on a train that takes us all the way through Kazakhstan and into Moskva, Russia- back to where we started- amazing!!!!!!!! From Moscow we hope to visit St Petersburg, before we head home either by crossing into Norway or back the way we came through Belarus and Poland towards UK. It all depends on money!!!! Paying 8 pounds/ 80 kr (er det ikke det sann ca det koster na da?) for a beer if we decide to pass through Norway is going to feel pretty devastating!</div><div><br /></div><div>So- there's the update! Sitting here at an internet cafe in Phnom Penh now- waiting for news on my niece which I believe is about to be born any minute now, Kathinka and Erlend will then be mum and dad of 3!!! Upstairs Chris is in his bed resting after a late night- our leaving drinks with a few friends in Cambodia! Lots of mixed emotions these days,- feeling a little heavy and sad from leaving Who Will, excited about seeing new countries without having any ties yet again, feeling home sick- at times very, and of course in between it all- this whole travel business just seems surreal- the way we keep drifting in and out of countries, cities, experiences etc... Sometimes I wake up in the morning or in the middle of the night and I have no idea where I am- a little disconcerting and confusing! I am not complaining of course.... I miss cheese a lot, good cheese like gorgonzola and stilton and mozzarella- at least dad is bringing with him home made Christmas pate and dark, dark rye bread for us!!!! </div><div><br /></div><div>I think I've finished the rant now, and will try to upload some more photos.

Decided for once to go on an arranged tourist trip- something which goes against all we believe in of course- HOWEVER- I reckon all of you reading this would have doen the same had you been given the chance to cross a border by a speed boat!! So before leaving Saigon we book a 2 day Mekong delta trip with an overnight stay at a floating hotel! Hmm...not quite sure what to expect... </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5455778216402891107-2060987765251851930?l=chrisandsilje.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Siljehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10670927125489854593noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455778216402891107.post-52801034626252215252010-01-09T02:29:00.000-08:002010-01-09T03:03:37.911-08:00<div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S0hhWU8NLHI/AAAAAAAABjs/BcSBJFcajRQ/s1600-h/PC080370.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5424692787374009458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S0hhWU8NLHI/AAAAAAAABjs/BcSBJFcajRQ/s320/PC080370.JPG" border="0" /></a> Our baguette breakfast being prepared for the journey to the Mekong Delta, en route to Cambodia! </div><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LpW1Z7fWZCo/S0hhWJ5URsI/AAAAAAAABjk/3c34Yt7blio/s1600-h/PC080369.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5424692784409102018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.
