Did we mention?

Ever since we posted the Tidbits and Whatnots post, we've noticed a few more points of interest that you may like to hear about.

Shoes
Throughout SE Asia, there are several countries that expect you to remove your shoes before entering their establishments. This is usually not a problem because the floors are relatively clean and we like to respect their customs. The problem, we never knew when you should take off your shoes or not. Sometimes you get yelled at, sometimes you just get stared at, usually it's just safest to take them off.

Flying

• Airports in SE Asia do not use gateways. Instead, you get onto buses that transfer you to the planes. Small airports are the best because they transfer you about 40 feet. By the time you board the bus and get back off, you could have been in your seat on the plane.
• Even on 20 minute flights, you get food! One time, we even got ice cream, mmmm!
• Beware getting off the plane. People don't go by the first row exits, then second, and so on. You have to force your way out.
  

Dining
The waiting time in restaurants seems to be opposite of what we're used to back home. It can get uncomfortable when they hover over you waiting for you to place your order. It's hard when the menu has 10 pages! Indonesia was much more relaxed than Thailand about this.

Also, food comes out when it is ready. Appetizers are often served at or after the main course. Luckily we share meals so we split up each plate when it comes and we don't have to take turns.

Internet
While in Thailand (and again in Indonesia multiple times), we tried to put some pictures online with our USB connection. I felt around for a USB port and got shocked! Trevor tried as well until we asked the moderator who told us to put our shoes on so we weren't grounded. She was not concerned of the fact that an electrical charge was running through her computer.
