Another Change in plans

Somewhere between Singapore and Koh Samui Kimmy and I started
discussing the possibility of not going further north than the South
of Thailand. The extended stay in Bali and unexpected expense of the
Singapore grand prix has burnt an even bigger hole in the budget. The
missed flight to Vietnam seems a little fortuitous now as travelling
north through Malaysia and Thailand has made us realise that the funds
we have left will simply allow for accommodation, feeding our ever
expanding bellys and transport/visas, not leaving a hell of a lot to
really explore these countries in any sort of detail. So, we'll spend
the rest of our time and money exploring the south of Thailand and
decide in the next few weeks on an appropriate earlier arrival date in
Cape Town.

We're both slightly disappointed that we'll be missing Vietnam, Laos
and Cambodia but agree that these are probably places we can return to
in the future.

More about Koh Pha-Ngan in the next couple of days.
