Let it snow , let it snow


Our back garden during some rather heavy Cambridgeshire downfalls. Unfortunately, there are not any decent mountains (or hills for that matter) in Cambridgeshire for me to get the snowboard out. I miss the Alps!

Singapore (14th - 17th May)



And then a slightly longer stop in Singapore for much of the same (shopping and sightseeing) and of course a Singapore Sling at the world-famous Raffles Hotel. Pics can be seen here.

Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) (12th - 14th May)



We had a whistle-stop visit to KL for some shopping and sightseeing. Our pics can be seen here.

Phuket (Thailand) (8th - 12th May)



Our time in Phuket was a little wetter than planned. We caught the tail end of the devastating cyclone which hit Burma, but thankfully a bit of "power-shower" rain for 2 days was as bad as it got for us. When the sun did come out, however, we enjoyed lazing around the pool and exploring the local town and markets. Our plans for scuba diving and island hopping will have to be set aside for our next visit when the sea swells are a little smaller!!!
Pics of this visit, however, can be seen here.

Ko Tao (Thailand) (5th - 8th May)



Ko Tao - What a little gem!
We managed to find a fab new resort nestled high up on a hillside with the most amazing views - see the pics here.
We wish we had had longer here, but the time we did have was spent scuba diving and soaking up the sun and the breathtaking views.
