Ah, a nice nap during a thunderstorm, sounds great! I'd write a short poem about it but I'm too busy!

And I bought a great accross-the-shoulder canvas bag in preparation for my future Palm Pilot that I'll use for my reporting from Thailand. It's the perfect bag. Fat, thick canvas strap for going across the shoulders and chest, so the bag hangs at your hip (and the canvas strap is sewn into the canvas bag itself). And a big flap in front with Velcro patches. Pull it up and there's a big zipper at the top, unzip that and there's all your stuff, very secure, and lots of little pockets around too.

I also got this very slender one-pocket money belt that fits under your cloths. Now that's cool. Before I would wear one of those front money belts with lots of pockets, but they get pretty cumbersome.

So my traveler's checks, passport, and whatever else will fit nice and snug at my waist, with my Palm Pilot and digital camera in the shoulder bag, with me at all times (at home and out!)

I love it, I'm MOBILE!

Fantastic, you know how to travel light and have everything you need at hand, sounds great.

You are gonna have a fabulous time!

It will be great fun reading your impressions and thoughts as you travel around. I know you have seen a lot Asia already.
