Bob is Coming Home

Bob is coming home tomorrow! He arrived safely in Krabi late last night (New Year's Eve). Guess he ushered in the New Year 2009 with our friends from Krabi. Yes...we have made quite a few friends there, Rom, Fa, Dam...and I forgot the name of the lovely lady who gives me Thai massages.

The thing is, Bob did the journey back to Krabi from Chiang Rai in two days. Guess when he doesn't have little Ali and the two girls jumping on him all the time about how long more till we reach he can clock more mileage!

He drove from Chieng Rai to SuphanBuri and stayed there the night. The next day he pushed off and came straight to Krabi!


This is some of the scenery from the window! This was still down South, way before the weather got cooler ...

Wonder what it was like for Bob to drive all that way without us in the car! Hmmmm...guess when you are coming home it is not as exciting as going. Cause you will be dying to reach home quickly. Well, for me at least!

We came to rely a lot on the GPS. That gadget did wonders actually. It took us on short cuts and back roads even. It will always try to find you the shortest and quickest route to your destination. I guess now it will be our travelling companion.

I intend to ask Bob about a drive around Australia after this. Next Nov/Dec holidays perhaps. We can plan early and can cover more ground. I heard the sights up north are wonderful and a sight to behold. The drive around Australia is expected to take a few months but I am sure we can cut it down by selecting certain destinations only. Maybe we can't do the whole country in the alloteed 5 months but we can at least see where a month or so can take us!
Am so excited just thinking about it. Oh yes! And my cousin suggested Germany. Europe is a destination on our list too. When Ali is bigger it would be easier no?!? Unless Project No 4 is a success. HMMMMMMMM.........
