  • Temple and a Cave

    9 Haziran 2023, Tayland ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    Today we rode our scooter up to Wat Tham Pha Plong temple. 500 steps to the top. They have a few things for the kitchen at the bottom and they ask you to take stuff up. I have a bag of magostines and Nicki has some lychees. The temple seems to be part built into the rock at the the top. We were the only ones there. After the temple we headed off to Chiang Dao cave which is an extensive cave system with a temple built into the mouth.Okumaya devam et

  • Khun Kon Waterfall

    17 Haziran 2023, Tayland ⋅ 🌧 29 °C

    We got our scooter this morning and headed out to the waterfall..... Unfortunately we picked up a flat tyre along the way but thankfully the Thai people were very helpful and told us how to find a garage that would repair it for us.
    £4.00 later we carried on to the waterfall.
    It was about a 30 min uphill walk through the national park and we were not disappointed with the end result, it was pretty awesome 😎

  • Tea is important

    23 Haziran 2023, Tayland ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    Let's just say the Tea wasn't cutting it and we needed to up our game.

    We located a Marks & Spencers and set off on an hour's long walk.
    I can confirm it was worth it even though the teabags cost £8!!! We had better make them last.

    We had a look around the shopping centre - they even have a wine store!

    Then back to the hotel to enjoy a cuppa and chill
