Visas and photos...

I got my Cambodia visa this week! The embassy is close by and not in Dupont, which means I could easily find a parking space and it was easy. I'll submit my application for Laos tomorrow or early next week.

Tonight's task is to figure out if I should buy more memory cards and/or batteries for my camera. I have no idea how many pictures my memory card(s) hold...so I put a message out on facebook for advice. Hopefully my techie friends will advise.

I busted out my map of SE Asia at lunch the other day and VS and AN were showing me where their families are from and the routes they took when they fled. Of course, this was over 30 years and they were commenting how great it is that it's now safe for people like me to travel there as tourists. I'm meeting with KH tomorrow to chat about Vietnam. A day ago there was a pretty big typhoon that hit Danang, Hoi An, and Hue - 3 pretty big tourist places and ones that I was planning on going to. Don't know yet what that means for my trip.

Other details are starting to pop into my head on a daily basis now - like how to pay my bills while I'm gone and other things like that. That's it for now...
