Photos for the last few posts

Hey everyone, sorry about the photo issues, finally found a place with fast enough internet and computer, so here goes, lots of photos to make you jealous!
Starting with the trip to Chitwan National Park, Nepal...
A photo from our first jungle walk, taken whilst hiding between two elephants, bit blurry but definitely a rhino, but it was pretty much dark and Kerry was shaking (surreal moment running through a jungle with elephants, chasing a rhino!). Also the elephant that we went on, a very bumpy ride, a gharial crocodile and proof that tigers really do live on the island (the beach was covered in the footprint, along with rhino, deer and human prints!).



















As we've said we got to meet the elephants...









And pretty sunsets over the river...












And hairy lorries...!












Then to Agra and the Taj Mahal...nuff said!!









On to Vietnam, with New Year drunken celebrations on Cat Ba Island, Halong Bay, kayaking and the bay itself...









Hanoi Flower Festival, with 10ft fighting cocks...

The rice paddies and countryside around Ninh Binh...









Typically Vietnamese...women doing the work and wearing straw hats...they actually live up to the stereotypes!
Then on to Hoi An, with some of our culinary creations (the most photogenic ones!) and some of the tailors creations, and the Cham towers at My Son ("Me Sun")...








Our seaside visit to Nha Trang...and one of the big buddhas on the hill above the town...
Now have just got to Borneo, not had time to do much exciting yet so will update you when we've (fingers crossed!) seen some orang utans!!!
