Well after much planning we finally leave tomorrow night on the 11.30 thai airways flight from Melbourne.
We have 9 days in Vietnam before we arrive in Phuket. Staying at the Patong Merlin, where we have stayed before, for 10 nights. Can't wait to see what has changed since our trip at the beginning of 2006.
We then have 5 nights in Bangkok.
Really can't wait for some warm weather, as Melbourne is really cold now.
Anyone else staying at the Paton Merlin between the 24th June and the 4th July?
Will post a JBR when we return..... although I am not even thinking of that yet.

Have a great time Pam, as I'm sure you will and enjoy the Merlin. We will be there in August, seems like a long time away but only 8 week's. Getting a bit cold in Perth too but sunny day's for the last few so no complaints.

Have a great holiday and looking forward to the JBR....Ronnie.

Hi Pam hope you have an excellent time, can't wait to read the JBR especially about Vietnam would like to go there next year, but not sure of where exactly and for how long.
Have a great trip, I still have 10 weeks and 5 day to go!!!

Ronnie, we hope to be back here in late August, perhaps we could catch up again? It would be nice.

We hope to get to the fundraising dinner so will have a drink or 2 and say hi. Best wishes.....Ronnie.

Hi Pam,
Have a great trip.
Looking forward to your trip reports, especially Vietnam and Bangkok.
Cheers,
Stewie.
