You wanted this section didn't you CB? ;\)

You can post images just like you can in the other Forums. Either upload them the the Japan General Photos section on our site (or somewhere else) then [img] and [/img] as before should do it.

Surely if a new thread beast were to be born, it could have a better name than "New Travel Forum" as the title. And even more surely it would make for a better forum if trips got their own threads. Anyway....

Anything would be better than creating your beast within the "Welcome" thread. But as I surely said, surely it would be best to have things separate? surely.

I think there may have been some tongue in cheek in cb and my comments ;\)

Separate threads is the only way to do it.

The picture is coming down from Thorung La Pass, Annapurna area, Nepal. I was hiking it when these two bikers came by, which looked like a cool idea. I used to do a lot of traveling but not as much in the last few years. CB, you went to Laos eh? I wanted to go, but I never made it off the waiting list for a ticket. Sounds like a great place --pretty chill.
Maybe someone will start a thread after GW. I'll start one next time I get out of Japan.

A few people have mentioned this to us and I thought I'd ask on here.... separate Japan and Overseas Travel forum sections - what do you think folks?

I think it is a good idea... when there are more posts it will be good to have them seperate.

Yea, I like the idea of seperate japan vs. overseas. It's a bit jarring to go from Cambodia to Miyzaki....
