Alle 13.30 parte il nostro bus per Chian Mai e dopo l’esperienza precedente ci attrezzaimo di felpa e calzettoni, pronti a farci6ore di comodo riposo…..invece no! Il Pullman e’ strapieno di gente (non pensavo che qui vendessero posti anche in piedi) in pratica se avevi fortuna ti accaparravi un posto altrimenti, come e’ successo a Read More »
This blog might be a bit elephant light on the words and heavy on the pictures, as we had lots of fun in a short space of time.
We sort of rashly decided to go on a 10 hour return train detour from our planned route to the elephant round-up in Surin in eastern Thailand. We Read More »
From Khao Sok we got back to Takua pa and got a bus down to Krabi, here we stayed a night because Ian wanted to do some birding around the Mangroves, Emily and Ian hired a longboat with a man called mr dai in the hope of seeing the mangrove pitta. We said we only Read More »

I arrived at the Silom Serene Hotel around 8am…..hmmm mainly because the taxi driver couldn’t find it…..I was totally knackered and caught some sleep.

First though…..I went to the Central Plaza shopping centre…..hmmmmm Read More »
So…. I left Pha-ngan (James Bond Islands) and stopped over in Khao Lak on the way to Kao Sok National Park. Khao Lak was badly affected by the Tsunami, but has physically recovered very well – however not many tourists have returned there since. A shame as it is quite a nice area. I was Read More »
January/Enero 2, 2007 Bangkok
We started our first day in Bangkok anxious to go the its main attractions : Wat Phra Kaeo, Grand Palace, Wat Po, Wat Arun, and all of the Wats possible. However after a big brunch we didn’t bother to ask the people from the hotel for their suggestions. This meant that after Read More »
