We are preparing for our departure tomorrow morning, when we will drive to SFO airport and hopefully catch a standby flight on the 11AM flight to Hong Kong, continuing to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC, or Saigon).
We are choosing to travel with no reservations, but here is the general conceptualization of our journey:
HK
Saigon (in the South of Vietnam)
Take night trains north, with potential stops in Nha Trang, Da Nang & Hue
Hanoi
Halong Bay
Overland route between Hanoi to Luang Prabang, Lao (this is the most rugged part of our journey!)
Pakse, Lao
Si Phan Don, Lao (on the Lao/Cambodia border)
Siem Reap, Cambodia (the location of the famous Ankor Wat Temples [pics])
Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Saigon, flying back to HK and on to SF!
We will try to post regularly here, and hopefully the internet cafes will be able to read our camera cards so we can post photos! I can't give you exact dates we will be in certain places as we may extend stays in places we fall in love with.
Love all of you and hope you enjoy!
Here's a map for reference.
