Jeninwa is having trouble with the wifi and posting but she has posted pics on her FB page so. I don't think she will mind if I pop some here for us to see. If you don't want me to Jen just say and I will delete this thread.

Jen may have to explain where some of these are but I can give you some info maybe.

Is the man in the background of one of the photos really that tall Jen or is there a reason he is towering over his wife :o
-
Great photos Jen and hope you both have a wonderful trip in Vietnam and Cambodia.
So much to see along the way.
What an amazing world that I can now go on a trip in Vietnam while cruising along the Volga river in Russia ;)

Thanks Gert for posting ;)
-
Anyone else going anywhere. Happy to post photos as I get to see them first!!
Going to Hobart next month so will post a few for you then.
We should probably have a travel thread so we can take some shots locally of sites of interest. But really we should be posting some local pics on http://trublutravelling.com.au.

Lovely photos Jenny and you look like you are having a great time :)
Once again thank you to the lovely Gretchen for taking so much of her time to post photos of our trips
-
We are having a fantastic time, wifi in room again is very weak. Took 10 min this morning to up load one photo to Facebook. Thanks again Gert you are a star.
All the recent photos are from Hoi An except for the one of me drinking beer, that was in Hanoi. We drove from Hoi An to Hue over the mountains today stopping at lots of interesting places on the way. We are in Hue for the next 24 hours.
-
It looks a lovely place Jen, too bad about the wifi but don't stress over it.

Marie

So did we Marie, love the food here, we have been eating all the local food, lots of fresh fruit for breakfast. The service here is outstanding. While we were in Hoi an, I had some cloths made pants and tops, they had them at our hotel 3 hours later for fitting, pants were finished tops were delivered to 8am next morning.
-
It's fantastic Jenny and we had the same service with getting the clothes made in Hoi- An. I loved the old town and the food everywhere was a delight. ;D
Loving your photos.
-
Love the photos
-
Great holiday Jen. Enjoying the photos.
-
It sounds lovely Jeninwa. I'm glad you are having such a good time.
-
Sounds lovely. Weak broadband is clearly a theme as I can't load the pics to even see them. All sounds marvellous though. So glad you are enjoying.
-
Just heard from Jenny. And here is her last meal on tour. They are off on a cruise tomorrow.

Fantastic photos Jen, they bring back wonderful memories. We loved Hue, the people were so friendly and the history so interesting. So much to see no do.
-
Lovely photos Jen :-* I love the fruit/vegetable carvings. Puts my chopped parsley efforts to shame :D
-
I think so far Hoi An is my favorite place, we are now in Phnom Penh, we left Saigon on Saturday and have been cruising up the Mekong river, the food is fantastic, service is outstanding. Today we visited the killing fields, which I hated then to S 21 prison, I sat out side under a tree with a couple of ladies from our tour, lunch at the Malis restaurant in the city (I will send Gert some photo soon) then on to the royal palace and the silver pagoda then a cyclo ride back to the ship.

Thanks for posting all these photos for me Gert, Angkor Wat is amazing.
DH Is going back tomorrow to see more and take more photos, didn't get many shots today camera battery went flat, then video camera battery died, thank heavens for my iphone. lol
I am going to a cooking class, then in the evening we are going to Phare the Cambodian circus.
We are just back from dinner, forgot to take my phone, :( so no photos till our friends from cruise get back to UK. I've trained her to take photos of our meals :)
DH and the other DH had frog for dinner, my DH had stir fry frogs legs and the other had stuffed frog with pork mince. I played safe and had fish amok. Cocktails are really cheap $4.00 or less have been enjoying one or 4

Thanks Jen wonderful to hear about your trip, enjoy your cooking class :)

Thanks again Gert for posting the photos. The cooking class was fun, first a trip to the market. Then we made the fresh spring rolls, then the fish amok and to finish off fried banana chefs special. I was given a DVD, recipe booklet, spices and a certificate.
It's our last night in Cambodia we fly back to perth tomorrow afternoon :(
Today we went on a helicopter flight over 3 or 4 temples, my first time in a helicopter, loved it. Then a bit of retail therapy in the markets, back to the hotel for a swim.

Lovely photos Jen.Not sure about the frogs though as I'm too squeamish :P
-
The driver taking pictures whilst he was driving :o :o
First time I have seen a completely skinned frog, I've eaten frogs legs many years ago. Couldn't buy those poor little things though.
Braver than me Jen, that's another machine I would never get into without being dragged kicking and screaming ;D
-
Eek, didnt like the look of the frogs I'm afraid.
Lovely photos. Fly safely tomorrow Jeninwa and DH.
Judy I have been in a helicopter a couple of times. I have to close my eyes when they bank, but when I feel them level out I can open them again. DH won't go in one as he sat by the open door with the machine gun when he did his national service and hates them.
-
Again wonderful photos of a beautiful country and culture Jen.
Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us and to dear Gert for posting all the photos.
Hope you and DH have a safe trip home after such a great trip ;D
-
Great photos Jen except the frogs :P
