Blog Withdrawals and Change of Plans

Post date: 31-Dec-2009 04:39:23

We're super behind on our blog posts thanks to an army of red ants murdering the charger on Colin's laptop. His computer will not charge and we can't fix it. We are going to try and find a repair place when we get home since his computer is less than a year old.

Unfortunately, we have limited access to Internet and Colin can't install the program for editing his photos, so we debated if we should continue or pause our blog posts. We decided I am still going to write posts when I can with few or no pictures. I'll just have to be extra descriptive so you can imagine what the place looks and smells like.

We're also a bit frustrated today because it's Dec 31 and we're trying to go to Hong Kong this weekend, but we can't get a flight from Hong Kong to Vancouver. However, we can get a flight to stay in Hong Kong for a while. Our original plan was to spend the first two weeks of January in Bohol or Palawan but we couldn't find an available and affordable hotel (for 50 cdn a night) so we decided we should go to Hong Kong instead since we wanted to include it on our trip if we had more time.

It's near the end of our trip and we've been gone for over 5 months. We are starting to get home sick and we were hoping to get back to Edmonton sooner than our originally planned date of Jan 23. However, it just doesn't seem to be working out for us. We wanted to be back sooner so we can see everyone and relax before we have to face the harsh reality of going back to work.

Stay tuned for more posts but no picasa slideshows...
