Sunflowers and Dam in Lopburi, Thailand

Yesterday on Dec 4, 2004, we had a short weekend getaway to Lopburi, a very exciting place to watch sunflower blooming. Very simple, we just went to Hualamphong station, buy a one day train tour package at the ticket counter, only 300 Baht per person (note : this tour is only available on weekends). We think it's very worth it, 300 Baht, and you got the round trip train ticket plus 3 meals (2 snacks and 1 packaged lunch)!

phuket, phi phi, phang nga

Phuket, Phi Phi Islands (Krabi Province) dan Phang Nga Bay are all located in the southern Thailand. They are famous for the breathtaking views of their beaches and waters. Our activities for our vacation on Nov 13-15, 2004 were mostly swimming, snorkelling, and sightseeing. Sand so white, sea so blue, a perfect weekend getaway. We booked our tour package in Bangkok for 6,000 Baht/pax and took Nok Air (1,250 Baht/pax - one way) for about 1 hour from Bangkok to reach Phuket International Airport. The airport is so strategically located on the beach that passengers can see directly to the sea and surrounding islets.
