G'day! My, has it been a week already since my last entry? Time sure does fly when you're also flying (and walking, and doing other stuff, I suppose). In case my shoehorned salutation didn't clue you in (or the title for the entry, for that matter) I have now reached my fifth continent, Oceania, beginning with Australia, aka "The Sunburned Country". I now have a better appreciation for that moniker, but let's not get ahead of ourselves! We still have some plenty to talk about in Vietnam and in the air before any talk of Vegemite is relevant. So let's get to it!
Entry #042: Thursday, November 21, 2013 (Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam)
Today marks a big page turn in my trip. Well, "today" meaning "the last couple days and the next couple days in addition to today." There's the turn in that I'm now done with the three-week cycling tour, the turn that my mom is making her way back to the States, and the turn that I will soon be leaving Asia for a new continent. So, lots of stuff! In fact, it makes me somewhat glad that, economic center of the country aside, Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon is actually a fairly boring place, with few attractions, as it allows me plenty of decompression time. So let's use that time and take a look at what's been happenin'.
Entry #041: Thursday, November 14, 2013 (Takéo, Cambodia)
Well, it's my last night in Cambodia. What can I say? Well, plenty, apparently, as here's a full entry about the last couple days. And hey, ain't it kinda nifty that this only came out a few days after the last one? Maybe i should try that more often. *Cough* Anyway, it's been a wild swing of highs and lows these last couple days for Mother and Son Schnorr. So let's not waste any time in the preamble. I'll give you a spoiler though: there's going to be a lot of cycling mentioned. Shhh....
Entry #040: Saturday, November 9, 2013 (Sihanoukville, Cambodia)
So, I'm starting out a new planned trip, cycling through
Southeast Asia with my mother. Well, I don't know if "starting" will
be the appropriate word by the time this posts. I'll be honest, I've been
putting off writing this entry - just haven't really been in the mood. If you
remember my discussion earlier about "Plan to Do", "Do",
and "Review What's Been Done", I have definitely been in the planning
state of mind. So that's definitely part of it. Or maybe the last enormous entry
has drained me a bit. Whatevs. The fact is, I started writing this on the first
day of the cycling trip; you'll probably figure out when it was posted by the
end of it. [EDIT: As of me posting this, it's now Day 12 of the trip, more than halfway through the entire thing, meaning that "starting" couldn't be less appropriate. In fact, I should have just changed this opening paragraph.]
I know, I know, I'm rambling. I'll get on with it.
