First Impression of Siem Reap

Believe it or not, after all of your patient waiting, I’m finally going to fill you in on Cambodia.  My flight to Siem Reap from Denpasar via Air Asia required a layover in Kuala Lumpur.  Though it was very tempting to buy an overpriced purse from Barbara Riehl at one of the shops, I parked myself … Continue reading »

It’s Saturday – It Must be Seminyak

I was up kind of early on Saturday, not wanting to to wait too long to leave Ubud.  Quite frankly, the longer I wait to leave Ubud, the more difficult it is.  I didn’t have a driver, so simply walked outside the hotel to find a couple of guys hanging out there.  They asked if … Continue reading »

Thai Time

I made it – back in the City of Angels (a.k.a. the original City of Sin – isn’t that a contradiction?!).  My flight arrived on time at BKK on Saturday morning.  My ex had been planning for several months to pick me up, but he’s been very sick with the flu and hadn’t gotten any … Continue reading »

I Ain’t Ready

It’s Monday night and guess who’s blogging when, uh, they’re heading out to the airport once again on Thursday night?  It’s time for my big annual trip – this one being back to SE Asia again.  I’m really horrible about packing and just as horrible about unpacking.  I procrastinate, throw things all over my room … Continue reading »

Return to the Fog

Tuesday came too soon and, with it, my final hours in New Orleans.  I slept slightly later than on Saturday or Sunday, but got up earlier than on Monday in order to pack.  The majority of my beads were NOT going in my suitcase, as they weighed a ton.  I only picked out some of … Continue reading »

Do You Know What It Means…

to miss New Orleans?  I certainly do!  That must be why I’ve been there about 15 times.  My most recent trip began a week ago.  It started with a 7:20 p.m. flight from SFO to IAH.  Whenever one uses air miles for virtually free tickets (this only cost me $10 in taxes), the airlines tend to … Continue reading »

It’s Been About a Month Now…

but I’m trying hard to remember what happened that Friday in Bohphut Beach.  As I recall, I chilled at the apartment for quite awhile that morning.  The microwave was set up higher than my height, so I had to stand on a chair to warm up my mini croissant thing-a-ma-jigs!  My plan was to hang … Continue reading »

My Sorry Excuse

As you may have noticed, my blogging dropped off soon after my vacation started.  Things were going alright to begin with in Koh Samui.  When I got to Bangkok for the one night, I had every intention of blogging.  My laptop was out & opened up when a visitor dropped by the apartment.  Well, said visitor hung … Continue reading »

Lovely Day

Thursday was very nice, with no rain at all.  I began my morning with a watermelon juice at Karma Sutra.  While there, I glanced at their ice cream menu and was very, very tempted to order something, although it was barely 10:00 a.m.  There was a combination called Dream of the Boss with caramel, fleur … Continue reading »
