This January, I’ll be making it back to Hong Kong for far too short a time. If you’ll cross paths with me, let me know: 4 Jan arrive HKG around 2 p.m. 6 Jan in Macau from early morning and then flying to Kuala Lumpur, overnighting there 7 Jan to Langkawi 8 Jan back to […]
Pictures from our January trip to Malaysiapore, available in part on Becky’s blog (linked on the sidebar), are being uploaded in full to my gallery as I type. Also, I’m uploading pictures from Becky’s whirlwind tour of Hong Kong. Interestingly, in Melaka we managed to completely avoid photographing the historic square (Christ Church and the […]
Our room in KL (not a budget dive) was scary dark and quiet. I had no idea what the time was, with the lights off. Made it back without too much excitement, and I’m faced by the twin demons of piles of laundry and an Octopus gone negative. Ah, down and out in Hong Kong. […]
I’m on Pangkor Island, the weather is nice, the beaches are lovely, and the jungle is probably a little damp for my taste so I’m not messing with it. Precious little weekday traffic, so we’re just burning days. We’ll head back and try to find some budget dive in KL for the night of the […]

I’m in Melaka, Malaysia, right now, as are torrential rains. I’ve had some trouble getting to the blog… it seems I picked a bad time of year to transfer my domain and run out of disk space… and only fixed it at the end of this session, but I hope I’ll be able to post […]
Remind me never to leave so early from Macau: a flight leaving at 10:45 had me leaving Lingnan at 5:30. That wasn’t strictly necessary, but it was close enough. We’d booked a Turbojet ferry online for 0700 and taking the first West Rail train at 0547 got us there in time to grab breakfast. After […]
It’s official: I booked a ticket (with Becky) from 4 to 15 January, Macau to Kuala Lumpur. Malaysia (and Singapore) here we come.
