Sorry for the Group Email

We’ve taken a lot of pictures since February the 4th. Some good, most unspectacular, and a few worth having a look at. Click here to see the top 49.

The truly interesting part of our trip has come to an end, and we’re on a kind of backpacker hiatus in Sydney. Still, SFTGE has had its fair share of readers. Click here to find out how you arrived.

Five months, 15,000 miles, and over 6,000 photos. One fake driving license and a multitude of cockroaches. Countless trains, buses and boats. We must have learned something. Click here to find out what.

Consumer products aren’t built to last and customer support is dead, you say? I disagree, although bringing all of my broken gear to Malaysia might get old. Click here to see how my camera went from dead to living.

We visit the War Remnants Museum and Cu Chi tunnels in Saigon, Vietnam. Click here to find out just how mentally scarred you can expect to be after you visit.

We stop relaxing at Mui Ne and get the bus to Saigon. Loud music, motorcycle touts and giant cockroaches ensue. Although whether a cockroach would be less concerning if it was small is debateable. Click here to see how loud we screamed.

We get out of Hoi An and head to the seaside at Mui Ne. First, of course, we have to face two buses for a combined total of 20 hours. Find out if things get any easier by clicking here.

We buy some trousers that don’t zip off in the middle. Also, find out just how much heat exhaustion will make you vomit, and find out where the best restaurant in Hoi An is. Click here for the lowdown.

We just never get tired of buses. This time it’s a 19-hour effort to take us from Hanoi to Hoi An, the tailoring capital of Vietnam. Find out what it’s like to ride on a bus with beds by clicking here.

We return to Hanoi for our last day before moving on to southern Vietnam. We arrived at five in the morning, though, so the following could be an alarming mess of non-sequiturs and sepllnig msiteakes. Click here, if you dare.
