The Second Lap

I'm at it again. This time it's Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and parts north, but it really doesn't matter where. The important part is taken care of. I can already feel myself slipping into travel mode, where you can't control anything and it's no big deal. My bags didn't make it, and everything...

Re: life philosophies

Life remains unpredictable for me these days. I'm actually in Bangkok now, holding a ticket to Bali for tomorrow morning. It occured to me that I since I have another climber friend enroute to krabi in a couple weeks, I would need to strike now if I had any desire to go see non-thailand things....

Re: Hawaii

So they have cats all over the place here. They are somewhat wild, though aparently you can claim one as your own by putting a collar around its neck. As far as I can tell, most of them are filling in the duty normally performed by pidgeons. They'll hang out next to you at the restaurant and...

Re: g-e-t-l-i-v-e

So Jay seems to be a step or two farther from the grave. In fact, he'll be climbing this afternoon, and all I can do is belay. I seem to have hosed up my shoulder, so anything I do with my left arm is somewhat agonizing. Maybe more chillin' will help. And you'll be happy to know that I've...

The King Cruiser

So life in Paradise continues to be nothing but good. I made it out diving the other day, and it was the best I've ever seen. Ridiculous amounts of fish, anenomae and assorted critters. You'd lose sight of your dive buddy because there'd be 15,000 young barracuda in the way. Our first dive of...

Tidal Wave

So Thailand is treating me pretty well thus far. Beautiful weather, great beach, clear water, perfect rock, couldn't ask for much more. So check out the first photo on this page: http://www.megagrip.co.uk/Thailand/Thai7.htm That is the route that I'm working on at the moment. The photo...

Overseas

Just a quick note to let you know I made it as far as Bangkok unscathed. Only took 23 hours, two canceled flights and a bonus stop in Seattle. Bangkok is full on strange. It's nothing but street markets and back alleys and littls stalls selling vats of curried squirell. If you've seen that...

Island hopping through Thailand

Arrived at some god awful time of the night -- I swear it's a conspiracy -- At any rate Werner made arrangements with some cab driver and off we went. Checked into the hotel absolutely exhausted and then he ventured out for food, I decided sleep was more important. Course I got abruptly woken up...
