2 travel plans: Australia vs. Thailand, Malaysia, + Singapore

My wife and I recently planned our february vacation. We had two main choices: Fly to Sydney and return from Melbourne (spending around 4 nights in each city with a train or bus ride between) OR Fly to Bangcock, from Bangcock to Kuala Lumpur, and home from Singapore (we'll have to take a train from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore).

Flights and hotels for each came to about $1,700 or since we live in Korea, 2,000,000 Korean won. We'll have to spend more on sight seeing and eating and we'll be paying the credit card bills for a while...

Anyway we decided to do the Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore vacation so here's the plan:

Fly to Bangcock.
2 nights in Bangcock. On the third day take a bus to Hua Hin (a friend said the train ride was really boring).
2 nights in Hua Hin. On the third day return to Bangcock.
1 night in Bangcock. Then fly to Kuala Lumpur.
3 nights in Kuala Lumpur. On the fourth day take a train to Singapore.
2 nights in Singapore. On the third day fly back to Seoul.

I'll let you know how it turns out!
