Adventures of Scooter and Hales
Two traveling souls off to our next adventure
Let's get right into Yellowstone! Like I noted in my last post, we got up EARLY so that we could hopefully beat the crowds. That worked, to an extent. National Parks are a whole different beast when it comes to tourists. Not even a pandemic can keep people away! Painted Pots Our first few stops…
There's going to be a little trend of going back and forth into Idaho. The truth is, we love it there! Idaho is an absolute hidden gem that we rarely hear about and we feel thankful to experience it before the word completely gets out. Anyways, we woke up super early to drive to the…
We wanted to push to get to as close to the outskirts of Glacier as we could to camp close by for an early morning hike. There were a few places that we had to detour to first though! Our first stop was a river that Scott’s aunt had recommended called Priest River in Idaho.…
Okay, so this is a part of the road trip, but we aren’t in the van. We debated a long time about driving or flying to Alaska and our final decision to fly was influenced by a few things. The drive to Alaska is about 39 hours on rough road, that was likely to destroy…
On Scott’s birthday we headed to Malaysia, where half of my family lives. I feel a little bad because we spent most of the day traveling from Hanoi to Kuala Lumpur, with a long layover before heading to Penang. So not the most glamorous birthday for Scott, but we made up for it by eating…
Somewhere in the middle of the country of Vietnam resides two coastal towns, Da Nang and Hoi An, just 30 minutes or so away from each other. We spent a week at each place taking it what we could of the Vietnamese coastline. I've combined the two posts because to our surprise there wasn't much…
Getting into Vietnam was a bit of a struggle. In order to have entrance to the country, you must have your Visa filed online before landing. Then you go through another set of paperwork with passport pictures that gets verified with the government and a Visa sticker is place in your passport. After you pay…
As the holiday season starts to take over, we are finding ourselves slowing down, staying places for longer periods of time (and forgetting to post to the blog). We've been busy. Okay, scratch that, I've been studying, and Scott has been "busy" watching football and a new show on Netflix. It has felt good to…
From the Maldives we flew into Bangkok, Thailand enroute to Phuket. We were a bit exhausted being on the move every day for the last four nights but being in Thailand was the perfect change of pace. Our intention was to spend one night in Bangkok (in an air bnb within walking distance to the…
***We've (Hali) gotten a bit behind on posting! Been enjoying the last two weeks too much! Sorry for the delay*** We arrived pretty late into the Male from Sri Lanka, but our flight was earlier inbound then expected. As soon as we arrived, we had to go to the local Sim card office at the…
