They've said that about other places we've traveled too yet these same people don't have a problem with downtown Toronto or Winnepeg, murder capital of Canada. Just because it's in Canada we Canadians think it's safe. Sheesh. We're doing a GAP adventures tour and are hoping to spend a few days after the tour on a nice beach in Thailanf. Which would you visit if you were in Bangkok and had 4 or 5 days? We’re hoping to travel to Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia in February and some think we’re nuts.

About a month after I left Africa, the 9/11 terrorist attacks hit America... not Tanzania. So, in some ways I was almost safer there.You make a very tempting argument. Thailand is beautiful, and tourist businesses often lower prices at times like this... a perfect situation for a budget traveler. If I didn't already have plans for a book research trip to Mexico, I just might go for it!

I'm excited to travel to Thailand. I'll be there in March and April--my first time.Do you think flight prices will go down? I'm looking at buying a one-way ticket for March 1. On Mobissimo.com, the price is about $618.FYI, I'm buying one-way because I'm going to explore SE Asia for the rest of the year. Yeah! I’m excited to travel to Thailand.
