Trekking in Thailand, Absolute blast

I ate maggots, flies, ants and other crunchy bits of insects. and you know what... It was very tasty, i mean really good, So far, i absolutely love Thailand, I am feeling so young even though I am at least 5 years older than all of the travelers I have been meeting up with.. I like me. Ok, The hill tribe of long neck ladies, interesting and exploited, I felt Awkward. SongKran happy water Festival happy new year.. more later. Love Melisa

Happy Easter, from Thailand

Well everything is as it should be, My brain has completely forgotten the western calendar and schedule, I had no idea it was Easter, anyway, for celebration I will go eat some very odd eggs. Tomorrow I head to the Mekong river which borders Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand, this area is know as the golden triangle, I will be happy to see some jungle and other hill tribes. My wake up call is scheduled for 6:30 am do you think they will get me on time, lets hope so. short entry but sweet.

Beautiful Day, the Highest Spot in Thailand

Sawadee Ya~ late night fun caught up with me, after I asked for a wake up call at 8 am, for a tour that was departing at 830, plenty of time to brush my teeth, wash my face, and clothe myself, yeah well it would have been... The person who gave my wake up knock on my door decided to call at 827,,,, perfect... So anyway after that, I flew and made a good entry right on time.. I took a tour today and it was lovely. Over one hour drive north of Chiang Mai, nice hills and mountain area with pine trees. yep good old Pine trees line the peaks and hill tops. I love them. My favorite place today, which brought a few tears to my eyes was the Phra Maha That Chedi Nabhamethanidon- Nabhabolbhumisiri, never mind this just go here This place is very nice I recommend it, built as gifts for the King and Queen of Thailand. alos on the tour Interesting waterfalls and contemporary 200 year old Karen Villages. Until next time. Keep breathing that ultra fresh air.. Love Melisa
