I am planning to enjoy the cold weather in North Thailand during the month of Nov. This is a no-frills trip, don’t expect 4-star hotels or always proper sit-down dinner. The last time I was there was about a year ago.<\/p>\n
Some SilverHairs have already requested to change the venue of the last Chonburi trip. Unfortunately, Vincent Khoo, a long time retiree, has some assignments and unable to organise a Northern Thailand trip. Well, this time, we have someone who is crazy about mountain views, camping and sleeping at National Parks at between 10 – 20C temperature, visiting fresh markets, sitting besides the Mekong river at 5pm, loves fresh clean air, enjoys smelling beautiful orchides, good and cheap beers, loves a cup of instant noodles, loaded with plenty of vegetables, enjoys country living and dinner on the grass at a hill resort.<\/p>\n
His name is Sompho, speaks good English, and I would say he is great at helping us "SilverHairs" feel young. Dont worry, no mountain climbing. He works in Singburi province, but will take the time to bring us around. I am agreed to join this trip.<\/p>\n
November in North Thailand is a great time, the rain has stopped, weather should be pretty dry and temperatures should be in the 20’s. Sweaters required. <\/p>\n
The schedule is not confirmed yet. But, it is likely to be like this. Arrive and meet at ChiangMai airport on Thur Nov 2, 12nn, and depart ChiangMai airport Thur Nov 9 by 12nn. Itinery would include mountain resorts which you are likely not to have visited, the Golden triangle, Mekong river.<\/p>\n
If you are interested to join this trip, please reply and register here. We hope this trip will serve as a great platform for SilverHairs to know one another better. This trip is strictly for SilverHairs members only. No Children. Closing date: 25 Aug 12nn. Max number of persons: 2 vans.<\/p>\n
