James Bond look out.....

........we liked the speedboat!!! (once we got used to it that is).

There's a few things to learn before you can relax and enjoy - passing driftwood is no problem, waves are a wee bit bumpy and rocks must be avoided at all costs!!! (and you're going too fast for the monsoon rain to really soak you - or so we found out).

What a great way to travel up the Mekong - you can really take in the landscape and it was loads of fun (oh yeah and we were unharmed - Lonely Planet are very anti this mode of transport but we felt safe all the time, the local drivers seemed to know what they're doing).

So Suzi that was the thing for last week that we would not normally have done - I'm sure we'll find something in Tokyo for next week!!
