How many times in 1 trip can Matt spoil a photo???

Have you ever been on holiday and in the middle of taking a photo when someone walks right in front of you? Well I seemed to have this problem almost daily on this trip. Matt seemed to have a knack for getting in the way (sometimes intentionally but not always).

Here is a selection of his best moments.....Can you spot which ones are deliberate???

Back in Sunny Goa!

Hello all,
We are now on the last leg of our trip. We have been in Goa for a week and it's been so relaxing. We stayed in Anjuna for 5 days as it's a quiet beach with not as many tourists. Matt had a bit of food poisoning on our first day so he was stuck in bed. Luckily it didn't last long and we were able to get out to the flea market, hire a scooter to go up the coast (Matt and scooter pictured below) and not to mention much lounging by the pool with a cold drink :)
We're now in Calangute. We stayed here the last time we were in India so decided it was the best place to do some souvenir shopping. It's ten times busier than before and the beach is littered with sunbeds, but it's still a really nice place to be.
We're off to a yoga class tonight. We're trying to get ourselves nice and relaxed before our epic trip home next week. We have 3 flights and an 8 hour wait in Mumbai. It seemed like a good idea when we booked it!!
Below is a photo of last nights sunset and a few cows on the beach. It's not often that you see a cow walking down stairs is it??








See you all soon!!!

Kerala

Hi all,

We have reached in the south of India for the last leg of our trip :(

We spent a few days in the lovely beach town of Kovalam just south of Trivandrum. We just sat by the each and tried to organise ourselves for the last few weeks travelling. Here's a photo of the small bay with it's light house.










Next we moved up to Alleppey, one of the main hubs for backwater cruises. The backwaters are a grid of water ways covering a large portion of Kerala. We hired a houseboat (very similar to the one pictured below) and spent a day and a night slowly cruising around eating lovely food and watching the world go by. Very relaxing.










We got straight off the boat and taxi'd up to Cochi. We have spent five nights here admiring the Portugese and Dutch buildings, taking in a couple of traditional Keralan shows, and eating some delicious cake with plenty of tea.

Here is Sueann making a chapati! We did a cooking course here and enjoyed it enough to go back the next day for more.













This is a guy getting make up put on for a traditional Keralan show.













Here he is with all his clobber on. The show was a saucy tale of lust and murder.













Last night we went out to Cochi's poshist restaurant for dinner to find that it has a special valentines theme and menu with live music and balloons! After six courses and a bottle of wine we waddled back to the hotel feeling pretty pleased with ourselves.

Tomorrow, Goa.

10 days to go.

KL

Hello all,

We spent a lovely couple of days in the very modern Kuala Lumpur. It's definitely one of our favorite cities in the world. It's so clean and modern with some amazing buildings. They were getting ready for Chinese New Year and there were red lanterns all over the city (photo on left). Sadly we left for India the day before New Year so missed out on all of the festivities :(

We went for dinner at the top of the KL Tower (photo on left). It's a revolving restaurant so we had amazing views over the whole city. The photo of the two of us below has the incredible Petronas Towers in the background. It's quite a sight in the day time but lit up at night it's spectacular.

We took some time out to go and see American Gangster at the cinema. We really enjoyed the movie but all of the sex and bad language was cut out making it a very odd experience. They literally just cut everything so it was jerky all the way through. Very odd indeed. It cost just over a pound so we weren't too bothered :)

We are now in the last few weeks of our trip and can't believe how fast it's all going. We'll still have time for a couple of blog entries before we get home, so keep looking!!

Thriller in Manila

Hello

We made a brief detour to Manila so that Sueann could do some work for Redkite.

We are back in Kuala Lumpur now and I'm writing this in Starbucks on Sueann's new PDA.

No pictures I'm afraid due to technical restrictions.

Bye for now.
