December 12th
If a picture is worth a thousand words then how many words is one-thousand pictures worth? One million. Well that is a lot of typing, so I guess I will let the pictures do most of the talking. We have uploaded, edited and posted the best of our pictures on Windows Live Skydrive. Believe it or not these represent several rounds of tough cutting and we still have more than a thousand pictures from our trip.
We have divided the pictures by country or region. You can click on the links below to see the slideshow or download any pictures you might want. Some of the photos have captions too.
The first set is of Mongolia. You can peruse through pictures of Allyson’s Mongolian family, Naadam, the National annual sporting competition, and the unparalleled beauty of the Mongolian countryside. Some of our best panoramas were shot here.
Splendid China, indeed. From the grandeur of the Great Wall and the Bund to the wonder of the rice terraces and ancient bridges to the simple but exotic richness of the food, China is full of ready made post cards. What did people do before digital?
Vietnam is one of most unique places we have ever been. We loved the cities and the country side alike. The French Colonial riverside streets of Hoi An and the photographic account of our first time rock climbing on karst islands in the middle of a bay.
The album for Thailand has the most pictures by far. You can see photographic evidence of me walking through Bangkok without shoes. There are the SCUBA pictures from the Lagoon off Koh Lanta and shots of the best place we stayed in Asia on Koh Phangan.
Two countries we did not originally plan on seeing but I am glad we did. From the Asian confluence of culture in Malaysia to the austere modernity of Singapore they are very unique places.
Last but certainly not least is Indonesia, represented by both Bali and the Gili Islands. In fact if may be the best of the bunch with pictures of beautiful tropical beaches, volcanoes at sunrise and Balinese temples.
