Ngaire - Don't forget the AMA cruise on the Mekong River from Siem Reap to Saigon. Sharon & Dick did it this year and loved it. As you well know, Mary Ellen & Jim and Pat & I (along with a delightful couple from England) are going in November. We're going to spend 5 nights at a wonderful lodge (only 10 individual villas in a private setting next to a small village) near Siem Reap before boarding the lovely riverboat. We'll do the advance scouting for you. Maybe Cambodia & Vietnam, including the Mekong River cruise, might be a good choice for 2012 or 2013. Cheers, Fred
