Your phone camera is nice. Did you know there's an arp orb nuat the next street over, on the corner? It's been there for a long time. There's a chicken rice place around here that my colleagues tell me is good - but I've never found it. My company's preferred hotel is at the corner of...

Here we post our own photos one. Good or bad, still our own. Don't simply whack off their web site lah - does no justice to what I assume was a great stay of yours.

Yes I think I remember. You posted a good report. If I recall, you also posted photos of Wat Rong Khun - the White Temple. Clock tower is designed by same guy - the style similarity is unmistakable. I've been to Chiang Rai multiple times. I won't go into the usual sights (google) but here are...

Chiang Rai is part of the old Lanna kingdom which was defeated and then annexed by the Siamese. Language is different, written script (nowadays only used in temples) is different, people are different. 8 provinces make up the Lanna North: CR, CM, Mae Hong Son, Prae, Lampung, Lampang, Phayao and...

Where are the nachos?

Been driving around in a rented Honda City 1.5A. Nice new car but underpowered with grabby brakes. Last time driving in TH was many years ago. Thai roads generally good. The biggest challenge is the highway signposting. Too small, too late, and if not the green ones, too many and confusing. The...

Great photos. The fruit is the roselle - you've probably have drunk the juice before. Thais call it dok kachiap. A sour fruit usually made into a drink by dunking in hot water and adding sugar. This is one of the traditional Thai drinks. Uncommon to see the fruit itself for sale in Bangkok...

This is done and driven by Lufthansa at gate E8 Terminal 2- not Changi Airports Group - they're in the process of rolling this out worldwide after earlier implementations in Germany

Year coming to an end. Time for a review. Possibly the most overplayed song this year: แน่นอก http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahkGRFhyxx4

I see -11C (windchill -19.5C) for 15 Dec Toronto, ON Weather Still very cold. People must be nuts for living in a place like that. Should come to BKK more often

Must borrow your little (big) black book :D

Look like's its going to hit 19C low end of next week. That's too cold for me! Brrrr..... Need to re-evaluate what clothes to pack. Would it be too much to wear my down bubble jacket :D

Finally reserved a car through Avis Pattaya. 1200B/day incl. CDW insurance for a 1.5A Vios. Apparently they will bring the car to (and pickup as well) where you are staying. Will call them to make sure, but this is a great service. They also give you 4 extra hours to return past your deadline...

Haha. When you drove in Europe recently, wipers activate when you want to turn left boh? ;)

Thanks cbfc. I thought you might chime in - this is your backyard after all. Is 1.2-1.5k inclusive of car or is the rental of car a separate charge?

Any thoughts/recommendations on car rental: pickup and return in Pattaya. I am planning on a 2-night getaway in Rayong. Don't know whether to cab it or drive. Last time I drove in Thailand was many years ago (hard to adjust - joetys will know what I'm talking about)

No leh. This song nothing to do with love: instead about itchy ear, deep inside, clean also cannot cure, cannot sleep, willing to try anything, only started recently after becoming a big girl etc etc. Singer: Ja Turbo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEAz4eLCH64 Somehow Thai people all very...

Re: 1st Miss Universe Myanmar in 53 years Not bad for a Thai brand. Not many international S'pore brands except SQ and Creative (debatable). I'm using their lemongrass shampoo now, a little watery but smells great. Can't remember what it cost, maybe $20/bottle. ANA uses Thann in their First...

Re: 1st Miss Universe Myanmar in 53 years I too use the TG shower rooms often. They use toiletries from Thann which is a Thai brand. They have stores in Bangkok. Missing mermaid you don't any help from me
