For Angela

1200......That's how many photos I took while I was away. Most of them aren't that great. Just a reminder of my travels. I am in the process of unloading them onto flickr. You can look at them here, if your got a couple of hours!

It is a bit scary getting back to real life. 166 emails & 25 phone messages to sort through (and I have not even been to work yet)

I have come to realise that home is pretty important....more particular the people around me. I was quite homesick towards the end of my trip.

I managed to pack a fair bit into my 18 days. There were some highlights though.

Catching up with Meg (and Amelia) in Bangkok.

She brought along her beautiful Babbette blanket that she has been making for Jules!

It is inspiring stuff.....well done.

The place I'd like to go back to...

Luang Prabang.

It was tranquil, calm, clean, friendly.

Below is a photo I took of a young monk adjusting his robes while collecting alms of rice in the early morning.

This photo was taken near the local market just our of the main part of town.

My next project???

Miriam from my crochet class showed us this great rug. I love the colours and the design.

I also love this little pic!
The both came from this mag!

I am definitely not one to write a lot on my blog. Don't panic...not going to start now! However I am about to go to South East Asia on Monday and I wanted to let you know that I will be travelling. I hope to post while away - but you never know what will happen with Internet availability.

Anyway here is my trip in a few sentences...

Pop to Bangkok for a quick shop with Meg,

Then off to Luang Prabang.

Next stop Angkor Wat, then off to visit my new niece in Cambodia.

To top it all off - at bit of shopping in Hong Kong on the way home!

See you when I get back -
