Thai, count lost
The south is too hot for me, and that even in the “coldest” time of the year.
We are in Tak now, it's late at night, and the heat and humidity makes it uncomfortable. I don't want to imagine it tomorrow under the sun!
Maybe not three good things anymore, but let me write a few words about lately.
Today we went to an elephant's hospital in Lampang. Then to the Thai Elephant Conservation Center, but not for the show, only to see the elephants. The hospital I liked, but the other one I didn't particularly enjoy it. They had elephant rides (booh!) and also the “trainers” had a stick that ended in a hook. Disgusting.
Going back to Lampang, we found a vegetarian restaurant using google maps. It turned out to be a local one, they didn't speak english at all, and communication was hard. But we did end up eating a good vegetarian meal with drink plus buying some noodles for later, all for less than 100 bahts. Which is almost too cheap, and certainly not like the tourist prices. We didn't know what we ordered, but being vegetarian and tasting good was more than enough.
The weirdness of the White Temple, especially the big paint inside the main temple, with all the occidental pop references.
