We're heading up north Thailand for the Xmas New Year period with another couple from Bkk. Here's a brief itinerary-
Xmas Eve- arrive Bkk in the afternoon, staying in Suk Soi 8. Slap up meal that evening.
Xmas day in Bkk- We have an early evening BBQ, but I'll be out for a few beers in the afternoon. I know it's a tall order being Xmas, but if anyone's in the mood for a beer around the general vicinity of soi 8, do PM me and I'll send my mobile number.
26 Dec- to Kamphaeng Pet/ Sai Ngam, overnight there. Check out some waterfalls.
27 Dec- To Chaing Mai via Sukhothai. We'll be overnighting in Chiang Mai, in the nite bazaar/ city wall area. Any BM up for a beer on the evening of the 27th? I'd love to catch up. Suggest PM'ing. A venue in the bazaar area would be easy, but we have a car so pretty flexible on this.
28- 28th- Fang. Staying one night at the Dusit, one night prolly in the town. don't think we have any local BM's here?
31st/ New years Eve- We will be celebrating in Chiang Rai. If anyones out in town that night and wants to catch up, do PM me. We're leaving it flexible, but will likely arrive in CR on the 30th.
Then taking a couple of flexible days to head back to Bkk, planning to overnight in Petchaburi. Certainly up for a beer there too, if any local BM's.
Obviously a TR will follow, and I'm looking forward to seeing north Thailand. I'm hoping for it to be nice and cool in Fang too, so I can use some of my warm clothing for a change!
If anyone has any recommendations, or 'must do' ideas, would love to hear about it. So looking forward to the trip, and I finally hope to meet some of our northern hermits.
