We left you in Vietnam over Christmas, so we will pick up from there! Phu Quoc is a wonderful Island best explored on a moped - So thats exactly what we did. Hiring a bike for 2 days (10 dollars a day, bargain) we careered around the Island, stopping off at deserted beaches for a quick dip followed by the odd bar for a light refreshment or a rum and coke(not for the driver)! As you can see from the photos we both look mighty cool on the moped :) especially on returning home to discover both our faces were pretty much red with dust....Evil Kanevil eat your heart out!

From deserted beaches and a laid back vibe we headed to KL for NYE. First stop were the iconic Patronas twin towers, think Mission Impossible 3 (according to adam anyway). We arrived at 11am to find tickets for the joining bridge had sold out at 6:30am (missed the boat there) so instead we headed for the KL communications Tower which is actually taller and allows for a panoramic view of the city. On the way we saw LANA written on a wall - naturally, we took a picture.

NYE we headed to Ministry Of Sound to hang out with one of Adam's music friends. The club gave Adam a microphone which was a bad idea! I had to physically remove it from him at one point, as they had asked him to say one line and 10 minutes later he was still going!

After the hangover had cleared we headed to Boracay in the Philippines - . The beaches have pure white sand and there are more bars and restaurants and fatty old foreigners with young philippino women than you can shake a stick at! We basically lazed around, drank a fair few rum and cokes and san miguels and then after 4 days moved on again to the island of Negros.

We then headed to Sugar Beach in Sipilay. Here we did the scuba open water certificate which was amazing and our instructor Marc was a seriously cool swiss heavy metal fan, we learned to navigate underwater (not sure i would trust adam with a compass anytime soon) we saw tons of coral and fish. We even saw a little fish cleaning an eels teeth amd nemo fish (not sure of their real name) which were the highlight for me! Anyway were now in dumagete and just going to leave to go to an island called siqijour. Another update to follow soon...
