25 January 09  SaPa, Viet Nam

…..If silence is golden and pictures are worth a 1000 words,.. then my name should be Midas,and i should load the 2 gigs of photos from my nikon D90 to explain the past 2 months..I have trekked through some jungles..and dark forests…experienced a french revolution,,and a czech invasion…crashed a hard drive and a 125cc motorcycle…been infected with a nasty computer virus and plagued with a fever of 100…watched spectacular sunsets on the island of Lombok in Indonesia……enjoyed sunrises with cold beer amongst the madness of Bangkok… and slept in small fishing villages perched above the sea…
…While all this was occurring i managed to wrestle tigers…watch elephants dance.,.and eventually make my way to Sapa,Viet Nam,where i now sit typing these words in a friends restaurant.It has been a crazy time…and it feels good to be back in a place that i have passed through many times.
……Sometimes words can’t explain all that happens,. and some things are better left unsaid.
