Thailand Road Trip!
We are in the middle of a 3 day road trip from Bangkok going to Chiang Mai (Chiang Rai, Ayutthaya, Sukothai, Lampang, Mae Hong Son, etc). We just have brief overnights and the rest of the days are traveling and touring so I’m gathering up the information to post and will do so as soon as we land long enough to write.
We’ve seen fun things like a monkey temple full of monkeys (the whole town was), ancient capitals of Thailand (Siam), beautiful scenery and more. Today I think we go up into the mountains!
Well, better go, my time is running out and I had to buy more just in order to be able to log off of everything. Actually, I got an email from my host provider that our web site was hacked. Great! Not sure of the implications at this point but will worry about it when we either get home or get somewhere that I have time to look into it.
Mai pen Rai!
