December 26-Orchid Farm and Sunday Walking Market

I’m writing this from the Rose Garden Resort in Bangkok Thailand, overlooking the river and listening to exotic birds in the banana trees!  We spent yesterday the 26th doing things relatively close by the Baan Orapin as we needed to get to the airport by 5:00 PM so decided to go to the incredible Orchid Farm and Sunday Walking Street market full of handcrafts in Chiang Mai

I don’t have much time to write this post …we are seeing Eks puppies today, so I’ll let the photos of Chiang Mai speak for themselves.  They are completely unedited so excuse the lack of cropping in some.  I will do most of that when I return home.

And to my dear friend Diana….in Thailand it’s your birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY and HAPPY RETIREMENT lovely lady!!!  I’ll try to call you tomorrow but If I can’t get a hold of you….have the best Birthday ever!! Now there is no excuse to not come play in Portland for a while!  WE LOVE YOU!
