The Beach is one of those books you read when you are travelling to South East Asia. I think I read it on my last trip, or maybe when I went to Malaysia. Anyway, it's a pretty good read on holiday, got lots of violence, but somewhat unrealistic.
Anyway, so this trip I've taken the obligatory reading of The Beach one step further, today I watched the movie version! Lying on my double bed, in my air conditioned room, with my tv (obviously) and its selection of cable stations, and my fridge, and my pineapple, and my mangos, and my french bread, and the salad baugette Chang Peng made for me for lunch, waiting for my clothes to be washed (again by Chang Peng). Now this is travelling!
