Girls walking around holding hands is very common in Malaysia, so I always held hands when shopping with my friends over there, and growing up, we always noticed Nepali men walking around holding hands, too. That's very different from either American or Malaysian culture! <br />Man, you guys are tough. That looks so cool, but you had a rough time getting there!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07894832851934334471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569414599779352185.post-20609418510773465352013-06-28T22:55:54.349-07:002013-06-28T22:55:54.349-07:00i loled at the random man holding hands pic and th...i loled at the random man holding hands pic and the water bottle grab. oooh how i miss thee!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569414599779352185.post-55245004730883113272013-06-28T22:55:36.165-07:002013-06-28T22:55:36.165-07:00i loled at the man holding hands pic and the water...i loled at the man holding hands pic and the water bottle grab. oooh i miss you so!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569414599779352185.post-89369525687092037792013-06-28T05:29:58.722-07:002013-06-28T05:29:58.722-07:00Your trip here sounds amazing and crazy all at the...Your trip here sounds amazing and crazy all at the same time.

And it really looks like such an incredible experience! Oh, and finally, the whole guys holding hands thing... very normal in China as well. And for girls, too. There it's as common as a boyfriend and girlfriend holding hands in the States. Different cultures certainly handle things very differently! Kudos to Kev and Patrick for working on being culturally sensitive!

So funny how different cultures are SOO different, but it's so much fun to just jump in and take part! I love elephants too, they are such amazing creatures!!! & the water bottle hold is hysterical. P.S. you're so much better than me...I can handle many things...but tarantulas...no..no way! :)Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17366602859640824325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569414599779352185.post-85316166118902822292013-06-27T07:31:13.029-07:002013-06-27T07:31:13.029-07:00You are such a treat...seriously!!! So I am think...You are such a treat...seriously!!! So I am thinking you need a proper wild adventure and I know just the place. The directions in the "veld" would be pretty much the same but no tigers think cheetahs oh and if we are lucky the odd pride of lions. Oh and I know of a stunning spot where you can "play" with really big African elephants. So come on over to my neck of the woods...<br /><br />PS I would not have had the rest of the weekend to enjoy after seeing the spider because there would only have been a little puddle of me left.....MAJOR spider phobia!!!!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05789853248289694702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5569414599779352185.post-47689862611647687562013-06-27T07:28:30.896-07:002013-06-27T07:28:30.896-07:00I LOVE the picture of you pointing to the elephant...I LOVE the picture of you pointing to the elephant.

They totally do that in cambodia. One time my school director gave my husband a tour of the school and held his hand for like 15 minutes. What an amazing adventure. I just love the attitude you have.
