Showed some interest in visiting Sa Kaeo - gf's original home area, she's less than interested suggesting we can go to Chiang Mai (ha ha of course, somewhere she hasn't been before)
Doing some research at Sa Kaeo : Thailand Wonders Travel it appears she is right . . . highlights include:
As I was looking at Dec/New Years, unfortunately I'd miss the melon festival! Curses.
- Aranyaprathet is an important trading post between Thailand/Cambodia - the town itself has little to offer
- several beautiful waterfalls
- ideal destination for nature lovers and amateur ornithologists
- many bamboo plantations and is known for bamboo furniture
- famous for producing large quantities of high quality cantaloupe melons. Cantaloupe Day is held in Aranyaprathet in early April
Some of the pictures I found on Google - desolate was the first word that came to mind, followed by Siberia in the low season.
Still curious, can anyone give me five good reasons to visit - excluding the five I've quoted.
And from my search, spare a thought for this poor girl, a long way to the beach!:
I am friendly, kind, cheerful, clean, love the sea and love home coziness.
