Yang Tone Farm Stay Chiang Mai

... decided to go for dinner by the river instead. At the Goodview Restaurant, we ordered a few northern Thai dishes and it was so spicy that my whole mouth was burning for a long time. Only white rice and beer cooled it down a bit. On the plane, I had told my friend that we will not have any western food for the entire trip (besides the Burger King we had for lunch at the Bangkok airport) but I think I might need to rethink that strategy :)

... and we were grand.



Another highlight was lunch on top of mountain eaten from a leaf, a
sort of noodle salad and just when i thought to myself "how am i
supposed to eat this thing" i was given a set of bamboo chopsticks and
it was devoured.

The whole experience was amazing and definitely one of the best experiences I've ever had.

... 20 bahts less when I realized it is only 75 cents less.
4.Thai beds are literally like sleeping on the floor. With this type of hard mattress, I understand why massage parlors are so popular in Thailand. That is my excuse for daily massages.
3. The national anthem is played nightly at 6 PM. The entire city stops for 2 minutes while you stand and pay reverence to the King.
2. If you forgot your ...

... our accomodation at Baan Orapin on the banks of the Ping River...........it's a genuine hideaway in the middle of this city of some 3million people. It is everything and more we had heard about and am looking forward to our 4 nights here.

Having unpacked we strolled and found a nice restaurant..........decided to have some traditional food...........ITALIAN!!!!.........some carbonara and bolognaise..was downed with a?.........yes you ...

... of those defining moments not easily forgotten. Now, on the train to Chiang Mai, one of the train staff has just told me Michael Jackson has died of a heart attack. She wanted to know if my laptop had internet access so I could check out the latest news. I didn’t understand her at first, and now it seems surreal – maybe the news has been garbled and he’s just sick. He’s only – what 50? If it is true it’s another remember ...

... talk to the locals. Amazing, these people just want to be good and practice English and help each other. I love Thais, I want to be Thai.   We got our first hour-long Thai massage for a whopping 6 dollars. It was a great experience. This is nothing like the soft stroking of American massage. These women sit on your back and pull your legs, use their feet everywhere and hit your head. However it was really good, kind of a mix between yoga ...

... Merry V's and thumbed the pages of the menu, familiar voices called our names from inside ... we looked round and there were Ashling and Paula (the Irish sisters) waving us in. For a moment we were a little stunned as it was a shock to see them ... we'd thought they would be in Chiang Mai by that point ... it turns out they'd been to the east coast islands and Chiang Mai already and had arrived in Bangkok the day before. They had already endured the dreaded hostel hunt ...

... the lobby for about 5 hours. Catching up on our blogs and eating. Our train was at 7:45 so about 6 our new friend helped us get a taxi to the train station. Evidently we made it in record time 20 minutes. Our driver took every back road between the hostel and the train station. We thought we were smart by leaving early, it just meant we had a 2 hour wait there. Jessie befriended one of the station workers who made sure we got on the correct chain. Have you heard of the term a slow ...
