World travel

You two are a cute couple. I would do both of you (kidding of course but you are both attractive)

yeah right you old pervert.

Prague is an amazing city, $1.40 for a pint of quality lager, cheaper than a coffee.

I went to Dresden on an away day with St Pauli, we played Dynamo Dresden, was a fairly poor game of football, however what struck me was the huge number of Skinheads supporting Dynamo. After the game the Police escorted us to our buses and the convoy left the city, I left the marshaling area and headed for the train station that was a nightmare.

Can you speak the languages of these places in asia or do they speak English? Or is your wife able to translate?

I can get by with Chinese and there are Chinese everywhere. I can't speak the language of any of those countries I just listed besides hello and thank you. But English is widely spoken in those places especially in tourist areas and hotels. Lots of the restaurants and less traveled areas I go to I rely on Google translate and pictures.

Lol I was about to bump this because I've been working on a couple posts and I'm a year behind. I've got more time over this weekend so should get it up.

I've had the concerns about Singapore, as it's so small and seems like there's little culture outside of the big city stuff. Definitely plan on seeing it one day but it would have to be a 1-2 day stop-over when we're really going somewhere else in SE Asia. Laos has a lot of pretty landscapes I'd like to see. But in Thailand try to see Khao Sok. That's the one place that we ended up not being able to make it to that I think may have been the best place. Sounds like there are very few people there and the views are incredible.

Would have also loved to see Chiang Mai but we went during the burning season and so didn't make it. Sounds like it's less congested up there, too.

ETA: Post some pictures of your trips.

I'm terrible at taking pictures and worse at uploading them. But I'll try to post some later. Usually I just take a couple selfies and call it good. I don't really use social media either. But my wife takes lots of pictures and posts daily on social media I should steal her pictures.

This trip to Thailand is a work trip and only Bangkok. But it's only an hour flight for me so I plan to go back and check out many places. I'll keep those on my list. I'm really enjoying exploring Cambodia right now. I'm traveling tomorrow to a few islands for the holidays.

I took my father in law to see them most famous place in Cambodia Angkor Wat. It's an amazing place and has the famous place from Raiders of the Lost Ark. But I've seen it a few times and just went to help him since he doesn't speak English. But for a few months a year you can catch these big snake head fish I've been wanting to catch forever. I fished for 12 hours straight and caught 1 and it was worth it. My boat guide didn't catch anything, he was pretty bummed. It was cool though it's very remote area with a floating village and we took a tiny boat way out on the tonle sap lake.
