A drive into town.

**jandajoy** · 02-10-2008, 12:43 PM

This is looking over into Laos with the Mekong in the distance.

Nice shots.

Interested to know how much land is worth up that way.

One day I would like to buy something high up like that and with the valley views, not to live as to far for the kids school and activities.

But for the odd holiday and mainly to grow cold climate fruits.....and vegies.

Looks like Scotland to me.
Are you sure that these pics are taken in Thai?

**peterpan** · 02-10-2008, 02:11 PM

great pictures JJ, I've ridden near your place, in the days when we would take a week off to go riding with my mates, BK (before Kids) nice area alright.

I was in Chiang Kong about 8 years ago. Beautiful country up there. Good thread JJ.

**somtamslap** · 02-10-2008, 04:22 PM

Lovely pics. The last few make me wanna get on me bicycle with a rucksack loaded with sandwiches and a flask of tea.

**jandajoy** · 03-10-2008, 01:00 AM

The weather right now is pretty variable so you get some nice contrasts, even with my crappy little camera.

**jandajoy** · 03-10-2008, 01:05 AM

Rain storms coming in over the mountains this afternoon, on the way home. Around 15.00.

Thanks smed. As and when there'll be more.

I had an interesting lunch today. New thread on that coming up.

Some nice pics there. A countryman myself and if I can get up to your neck of the woods would pop in for a beer (or two)

You'd be more than welcome Prop. We're a bit rough in our shed but the fridge is always full.

Add rain and it looks uncannily like Bonnie Scotland!

Does a bit. I like the changes in the weather. Keeps things interesting.

**jandajoy** · 04-10-2008, 10:41 AM

You get these little flocks of pixies marching along. They walk miles and work up on the sides of the hills. Very shy.

Even out bush the BIB will set up road blocks. Mostly looking for Laos sneaking in to LOS apparently. All very friendly to us though.

**Khun Sabai** · 04-10-2008, 12:05 PM

Yep thats real Thailand. Good Thread JJ Keep it up.
