And here we are in Bangkok, having spent a different New Years eve party, a very Thai one - we were the only foreigners in the whole bar, a rare thing in Bangkok, so full that it is of tourists! In the photo, one of the new-found friends - his english was not great but he knew Figo and Poborsky, so we got along right from the beginning! Thai people are really amazingly friendly, always smiling and willing to talk to you (even if through means of free whiskies, gin&tonics, as last night!), and willing to enjoy life even in the face of tragedy as in yesterday's cowardly bombings (which thankfully did not affect us in the least - in fact we were the only ones who showed any interest in what was going on)
So we remain in Bangkok for the next few days before moving west, to the area around the river Kwai (where the POW-built bridge still stands and shall be one of our destinations).
We wish all our readers, friends, and a very Happy New Year, and should you wish to ever contact us we are sometimes reachable by mobile on +66 874933557

Hello Pedro and Lenka...
It is Matt and Lisa. We are very happy to hear that you have started your journey. I am sure it is going to be an amazing experience that changes your lives. And hopefully brings you even closer together.
Although it is months away, Lisa and I are already planning for the US portion of your trip. I have some small additions to add to you plans... Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, and The Poconos. They are already on your driving path and worth the visit.
We look forward to reading and hearing about your adventures.
Bigs smiles to you...
Lisa and Matt
