A big thank you to Jackie (and John) of JUNK BOAT TRAVELS who are on an amazing trip. " December 2014 we drove to Las Vegas and stayed until December 28 2015. We then headed to LAX for a flight to Singapore. From there we will go to Bangkok and then to Cambodia where we will take a Mekong River Cruise and on February 25 we will head to Australia and New Zealand for 33 days" . Quote taken from Jackie's blog. I have 3 fab postcards to show you .....Panoramic Landscape of Singapore... How wonderful it looks. Maybe one day I will visit. Not many of you know that I used to live in Singapore when I was a child. We went there for 3 years when my dad was in the Royal Air Force..I know it would of changed immensely. Jackie describes it as "Cosmopolitan , Vibrant and fun .. But so EXPENSIVE!!I would love to do the Formula 1 Grand Prix trip . It would be amazing as it is a Night race.!! Greetings from Thailand ... "This has to be the most amazing place to visit says Jackie" Wehart Chamrun Residential Hall,Bang Pa-in, Ayutthaya. I cannot tell you much about this place but I did find a very interesting snippet. The Death of Queen Sunanda In 1881, Queen Sunanda Kumariratana and her only daughter Princess Karnabhorn Bejraratana were on their way to the Bang Pa-In Palace when the royal barge carrying them capsized. According to Thai law at the time, touching a royal was punishable by death, so onlookers looked on helplessly as they drowned - and were instructed to do so by a guardian on another boat. King Chulalongkorn, shocked by the events, demoted and jailed the vizier who obeyed the letter of the law at such cost and erected a memorial to her in Bang Pa-In. (Taken from the site Bang Pa-In travel guide) And then the amazing, colourful and interesting scenes from the Markets of Vietnam !
Please go and have a read of Jackie's blog and catch up with her trips. I can guarantee you will be reading for a while ! They are in Australia now !!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
