In less than 2 weeks (4th of aug) we're going on a 5 week trip to Thailand and Australia. Getting a bit nervous now... haven't book all our accomodation, and even though travelling with Ester has been easy so far, this'll be different, 12 h flights, warmth and weird food. But I'm sure we'll do just fine. Being nervous comes with the parenting stuff I guess.
Here's our plan so far:
4th aug - flight to Bangkok, arrive early in the morning on the 5th
5-8th aug - staying in Bangkok at the Viengtai hotel, doing some sight seeing and shopping. On the 7th our good friend Siaan will arrive from Kuala Lumpur to spend a few days with us! :)
8th aug - travel to Koh Chang. We'll probably take a bus, checking the Internet (and with friends who've been to Thailand a lot) indicates that the buses are of good quality, air conditioned etc. Will take approx. 5 hours, but hopefully we'll get to see some of Thailand from the bus window....
9th-15th aug - Koh Chang. We've staying in air conditioned bungalows at the KC Grande Resort on white sands beach. I hope that'll be ok for Ester (and the rest of us).
On the 15th we're flying to Sydney, arriving there around noon on the 16th and continuing to Brisbane. Our plan is to rent a 4WD, pick it up at the airport in Brisbane and drive up to Noosa and spend the night there.
17th - 19th we want to spend on Fraser Island, but we haven't booked any accomodation yet.
20th-24th we're back in Brisbane, attending the big MedInfo conference.
24th aug - 9 th sep - Sydney! That's the part I'm most excited about! 28th-30th I'll be working, attending the ITHC conference where I'll be presenting a paper, but after that it's all vacation. We'll be staying at least a week with my cousin TJ and her boyfriend, and we're all looking fw to seeing them again.
9th sep, flying back to Sweden again, without stop over in Bangkok this time, which will be a long flight, but hopefully we'll be able to keep Ester happy...
