                An ancient style sailing junk crosses Hong Kong's Victoria Harbor

                July
                19-28, 1999  Hong Kong 
                It's the dead afternoon of a super-humid July day. We're tromping around Hong
                Kong's bustling city streets, under the weight of our hefty packs; being  dripped on
                from the legions of A/C units above our heads; cringing with pain as squealing bus brakes

                July 6-18, 1999  Cameron & Langkawi, Malaysia  
                The constant, fuzzy roar of the waves crashing on the rocks just
                below our balcony create a background rhythm, while the chirping crickets, twittering
                birds, and an occasional puttering old fishing boat on its way back in from a day's worth
                of trolling, lay down a strikingly moving melody

                The Kuala Lumpur welcome wagon: 'Welcome to Chinatown' 
  | 
                July 4-6, 1999  Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia  
                This is Southeast Asia. The Asia that's found in the humidity-filled breezes that
                rustle constantly through the flopping palm tree leaves. Her cities, like Kuala Lumpur,
                wrapped in the almost constant orchestra of horns that work too well, and mufflers that
