That’s a nice song, better than any Classic Symphony I have heard before. It’s very appropriate.
The countdown to the Year of the Ox has started and I am looking forward to our family reunion dinner. I’m sure you will be equally happy to reunite with your family in Malaysia.
We will be spending the holiday at the A Famosa Zoo, so most likely won’t be able to see you in K.L.
We wish you and your family a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year.
I now realised Thailand is so long in km north south. Also had a fall on one of the corners of NW Thailand. Just a scare, but bike took a week to be repaired in ChiangMai. So, unfortunately can’t come back in time for CNY. Will see you all on way down. Happy CNY !!
You just take care of yourself and take your time to complete this round. Like your update especially the pics! Happy New Year ….. also to you all Lydia, Jade, Pearl & Gem
It is great to follow your further adventures. Your photos are wonderful. Glad to see from the video you are still using your tent.
Very best wishes and stay safe. I look forward to the next instalment.
I want to say that I am very proud of you and what you have achieved over these past months. I am truly inspired by you and now I know, nothing is too impossible if you have set your mind to it!!!! So so proud of you…my brother!!!

Video of the 1st leg
Hello and welcome
Over the next few months starting mid-April 2008, come join me in a motorcycle adventure from my southern French village of Gattières (near Nice), via the Silkroad across Central Asia to my childhood hometown of Segamat, Malaysia for the 1st leg, and then to Melbourne Australia for the 2nd. leg.
Through this website, I hope to keep in touch with family members, friends and supporters.
A partir de la mi-avril 2008, et au cours des quelques mois qui suivent, venez partager avec moi une aventure à moto depuis mon village du sud de la France, Gattières (près de Nice), à travers l'Asie centrale et la route de la Soie vers la ville de mon enfance en Malaisie,
Segamat, pour la première partie, puis jusqu'à Melbourne, Australie, pour la deuxième partie.
A travers ce blog, je souhaite rester en contact avec ma famille, mes amis et tous mes supporters.
it’s very well made, and I know how hard it was for you to choose among so many beautiful photos!! Love, Lydia
Nicely done ….. like the song!
Great job. Can’t wait for Slideshow video – part 2.

Anyway, take your time and enjoy your trip …..

Hi Sheen,
Just get your website. It’s great adventure. Keep going and take care.
Hope Lydia is not missing you and the children too.
It’s a pity you did not include Philippines in your route to Autralia.
Cheers,
