Enjoying our second week over here. In Chiang Mai at the moment after spending a week in Patong on Phuket Island. Had a great sea canoe trip with John Gray Sea Canoes. Awesome scenery and lunch & dinner on boat was delicious. Very good elephant trekking and bamboo rafting at Maetang elephant camp on Monday north of Chiang Mai then a visit to Chiang Dao Cave, a temple carved into the inside of the cave. Finished up at the Orchid Farm, such lovely flowers!!! Today we're fishing for giant catfish among others on a lake near Chiang Mai, it's catch and release and the average fish is around 45kgs!!! The bait is bread and the guides do all the baiting up and releasing, they also row out into the lake to retrieve any rods that may have been snatched out of your hand by a very quick, strong fish!!!! Off to Pattaya on Saturday for 5 days before return to Bangkok for another 5 days finishing the shopping then back to Oz on August 19th.
