Humboldt Bands Family Tree. Just another WordPress.com weblog. What is the Humboldt Bands Family Tree? The Horn branch →. Welcome to the Tree. August 17, 2008. The name of this blog should explain the concept. The goal is to create a virtual family tree showing how Humboldt County bands relate to each other. There are no hard and fast rules about who is included. If you played in a band based for some time in Humboldt County (the one in California) we want to hear from you. We want them. — Bob.

Getting My Sarong On: June 2009
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Getting My Sarong On. Friday, June 19, 2009. Siem Riep to Bangkok: In Trouble with the Law. OR there's a bus that will offer to take care of your Thai visa, so they will charge you the "visa fee" and run your passport through immigration. There is no visa fee, it's always free to enter Thailand, so some people get tricked that way. Well, yes. Sort of. No problem, we're on our way to Bangkok. Nothing will stop us now! We got on the bus to find throngs of foreigners- only foreigners- already loaded onto th...

Getting My Sarong On: February 2009
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Getting My Sarong On. Wednesday, February 11, 2009. In a little over two weeks we're on our way! Follow our journey and laugh at the stupid stuff that always happens to us when we travel. Should be fun. Ferry to the Gili Islands (off the Northwest coast of Lombok). Ferry back to Bali- spend a week in Ubud and Lovina. Ferry to Java- climb Gunung Bromo, bus to Yogyakarta, train to Jakarta. Ferry to Sumatra- three day boat journey to Medan, bus to Bukit Lawang, go on Orangutan Trek, bus back to Medan. Save ...

Getting My Sarong On: May 2009
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Getting My Sarong On. Sunday, May 24, 2009. Bored in Phnom Penh? Why not volunteer with SCAO for a few days. We knew all along that we wanted to do some volunteer work once we got to Cambodia- like I said before, it has many more opportunities than anywhere else in Southeast Asia for the Average Joe to do some good. That meant, including Pat and I, the total number of teachers numbered seven. The next day we arrived and met with the director of the orphanage, Mr. Samith, who runs the orphanage with h...

Getting My Sarong On: Hoi An and Saigon
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009/05/hoi-and-saigon.html
Getting My Sarong On. Monday, May 18, 2009. Hoi An and Saigon. After Sapa, Pat and I prepared ourselves for a long train ride and a much warmer climate than we had been experiencing in the south. We were taking one train to Hanoi from the border town of Lao Cai *an hour away by bus from Sapa) and from Hanoi we were catching another train allllll the way below the old DMZ line to the small city of Hoi An. Why go to Hoi An? Ah, no problem", he frowned. I was taken aback. I said "What? When Patrick got back...

Getting My Sarong On: Phnom Penh: Dusty and Hot... and Awesome.
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009/05/phnom-penh-dusty-and-hot-and-awesome.html
Getting My Sarong On. Thursday, May 21, 2009. Phnom Penh: Dusty and Hot. and Awesome. We left Saigon at around 3 PM, and were assured that we would be in Phnom Penh a mere six hours later- border crossing included! That sounded almost too good to be true since we spent about 2 or 3 hours at the Laos/Vietnam border, but still, we went with it. When you arrive in Cambodia you don't see any poverty. You see a lot of casinos. A lot. Right at the border. I suppose there's a lot about this time that I don't un...

Getting My Sarong On: Sick in Sihanoukville
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009/06/sick-in-sihanoukville.html
Getting My Sarong On. Monday, June 8, 2009. On our last day in Phnom Penh, we spent a bit more time at the orphanage and relaxed around the lake district. We had bus tickets that would leave first thing in the morning for the beach destination of Sihanoukville- like, the only beach destination in all of Cambodia. Again, I truly wish I had my own pictures to show you, but I found some that will do the trick on google images. I hope I don't get sued. A steal, if you ask me. The pool was fun. Save Poor Chil...

Getting My Sarong On: March 2009
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Getting My Sarong On. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Kuala Lumpur: I really like it here. The more time I spend here, the more I like it! It's got something for everyone- gorgeous architecture, expensive malls, cheap malls, delicious food, markets, culture- and everything is cheap! I really, really like Kuala Lumpur. All rich tourists around that part of town (the twin towers are also home to the fanciest mall in the city). We didn't really know where it was; I just knew it existed because a friend of mine had...

Getting My Sarong On: Siem Riep: Amazing Hotels, Amazing History
http://patandjanine.blogspot.com/2009/06/siem-riep-amazing-hotels-amazing.html
Getting My Sarong On. Tuesday, June 9, 2009. Siem Riep: Amazing Hotels, Amazing History. So, we almost cried when we discovered that all of our Siem Riep pictures, minus the cooking class, would be forever lost. OK, I cried a little bit. That meant losing our Angkor Wat pictures and the pictures I was planning to use to boast about the awesome hotel we stayed in! Very sad, indeed, but I have a vivid memory of our time in Siem Riep- it was my favourite place that we visited in Cambodia. Sure enough, when ...
