Glenn and Denh in Asia. A blog of our trip to Vietnam and China, containing some thoughts and some pictures. Sunday, September 24, 2006. Tiger Leaping Gorge - Great for Ma Jong! From Kunming (southern town of China), we travelled by bus for. A 3 day trek takes you along the. Gorge, treking around altitudes ranging between 1500m to 2600m. Nothing though compared to the surrounding peaks of over 5000m. Can only imagine them snowcapped in winter. The rooms, including the toilets, overlook the spectacular mo...

Glenn and Denh in Asia. A blog of our trip to Vietnam and China, containing some thoughts and some pictures. Monday, October 09, 2006. Chongqing - Hotpot and Pandas (not together). The first thing I noticed when heading into Chongqing was that it was an extremely dark city. There were these huge housing skyscapers on the outskirts of town which were either unoccupied or everyone was in bed with every light out. I suspect it has something to do with China's electricity shortage. The place was absolutely p...

Glenn and Denh in Asia. A blog of our trip to Vietnam and China, containing some thoughts and some pictures. Friday, September 15, 2006. Beer and Coffee in Vietnam. Just a small one to mention the beer and coffee here in Vietnam. Both are actually fantastic! Halida is also a European style beer which is also superb. Tiger is the equivalent of Carlton Draught or VB, and is found everywhere and tastes great. Last but not least is Bia Hoi, or the fresh beer you get in dodgy little places in Hanoi. It's ...

You read about scams, and being informed, you can only hope you won't be the next victim. Dodgy taxi meters and drivers are prolific in Hanoi. Our taxi ride into town cost us VND$75000 and others who paid $150000. The norm being $30000. All in a days travel in Vietnam. Posted by Denh @ 8:21 pm 0 comments. Beer and Coffee in Vietnam.

Here lies my attempt to 'blog' my 5 months of traveling in Asia and Africa. For those loyal groupies, this will replace Medel's Updates. Friday, February 02, 2007. Firstly, massive apologies for the even more massive gap in blogs. A combination of a dearth of internet. That which follows is a brief summary of the last 3 months of my life:. But chickened out at the last minute.] I had a wonderful Friday night shabbat. For a 3am flight to Ethiopia. We did take a 3 day mini-break to Bahar. Dar to see the ol...

China (Updated with Photos). Second, the food is amazing - e.g., not floating in oil, not overly sweetened with sugar and not fried! There is nothing better than a crisp Greek salad to satisfy a raw veggie craving. Third, the lack of desire to be 'American' is a welcome refreshment. In China, it seems that everything is advertised...
