Any Steemians in Chiang Mai, Thailand for the Loy Krathong Festival? (Lantern Festival) If you're in Chaing Mai and want to hook up with other Steemians we will be hanging at the south and east gates of old town between 5-7 PM on the 21st (today) and the 22nd of November, 2018.

Let's Meet Up

I'll be meeting up with @lewisjfclarke at his place around the south of old town at around 7-ish with @teamsteem and @mikemeister tonight. Planning to walk around and snap some photos and have a few drinks along the way.

I'm going to head downtown around 5 PM and scout locations to shoot the main lantern release the following day. Eventually will make my way down to the iron bridge to get some shots of lanterns being released on the river. Come join us!

Wondering what awaits in those hills, the bike read my thoughts and seemed ready to find out. Making quick work of it as it glided along the perfectly smooth roads, the bike and I became one, racing away from the city below flying past the croaking frogs and rice paddies, through thickly forested hills and breathtaking vistas, round the winding roads and waterfalls, cutting through cool, floral-scented air pockets until we reached Doi Suthep.

Call me crazy but last week I flew to Bangkok, Thailand with nothing but a camera, half a suitcase of clothes, my trusty laptop, and an incurable case of wanderlust for new adventures. While that may seem impulsive to my close friends and family, some who've made their opinions concerning my sanity very clear, to me it's perfectly normal. Home is where you feel at home and for me, that's almost everywhere.

Just west of the Chaing Mai University at the the base of the Doi Suthep mountains is the Chiang Mai Zoo and Aquarium, a 200 acre (81 hectares) zoo established in 1977. I'm not a big fan of zoos but when I was having lunch at a nearby place and heard a lion roaring in the forest my curiosity got the better of me. I spent a day visiting the place and snapping pictures.

Strolling through the Huay Kaew Arboretum in Chiang Mai, Thailand I imagined saving the world one forest at a time and stood in amazement under new-to-me trees, basking in hungry curiosity for this novel biosphere. Most of the trees in these parts are hosts to a wide variety of orchids growing on their trunks
