Chiang Mai


We spent the day at Huay Tung Tao lake in Chiang Mai yesterday. What a gorgeous wee spot. No tourists. Just a few locals and their children floating around. There's a whole lot of these little huts (pictured) all around the lake with a couple of local restaurants attached. A lovely day relaxing and reading in the sun :-) 


On Wednesday we ventured up into the Doi Suthep Poi National Park on the scooter. We found a beautiful temple ( not surprising!) in a very cute mountain village. Most people were visiting the temple and then heading back down the mountain..(as many people take small buses or Tuk tuks). We decided to head further up to see what we could find. Came across the most beautiful little village called Doi Pui. At the highest point of the mountain.. It was the most gorgeous wee village with beautiful flower gardens and a small waterfall. Well worth the extra drive!! 




Hope everyone is well back in New Zealand. We do miss you!!

We departed for our day trip on a boat from Otres Beach on Tuesday and that took us snorkelling around a couple of the surrounding islands. We visited elephant rock for some cliff diving..(Theo jumped but not I!) Spot the cliff diver! Then we headed for Koh Ta Kiev where the other people on the boat were just visiting for a few hours and then going back to the mainland, whereas we decided to stay. The tour guide spoke very little English so it was impossible explaining to him where we wanted to be dropped off (especially because we didn't know where it was exactly!) so he ended up stopping the boat and we had to get off right there. We had to carry our 18kg bags on our heads to get them on and off the boat dry Where are we??? !! We discovered that people br...

$1 Camper!

Hi all! Yesterday we picked up our $1 a day relocation camper from Las Vegas..we have four days in this lovely beast and we are driving it to Denver Colorado. There's a lot more room than our dodge caravan that's for sure! It's got a full sized shower, toilet, kitchen with fridge,oven , microwave. It even extends out once parked to make more room! We fly out of Denver on the 13th to Washington DC for a few days or so. We'll then head to New York. :-) Everything is swell!  Woohoo! Super excited! Breakfast this morning made by the fabulous Grace
