Just spent a long weekend in Nakhon Sri Thammarat with the wifes family.
Been a while since I have been down so it was a nice change. Things have moved on a lot since I was first there in 1992. Used to be you had to take a boat to get to the house, but now they have roads.
I was in two minds as to whether to put some of the pictures into my flora / fauna thread, but as these are all taken in the same 4 days I'll put them together
I arrived by plane on the Friday evening and took a taxi into town to stay at the Thai Hotel. 600B for a room with AC and extra bed for the eldest lad. They were already there waiting for me, as they had gone down the week before. Next morning it was of to the house which is about 40-50 kms south of the main town in Amphur Chalermprakiet.
First you take a songthaew to Hua Thanon, the head of the road, where all the other forms of transport head off to the various districts to the south and onto Songkhla. There is a market there, which is where the first batch of pics come from....
