This will be my last posting until about the first week of September. At that time, I expect to have some definite plans for going into Asia in the winter...(here). Always summer over there.
It is my intention to go into Bangkok and from there, into other Asian places about the first of January. I intend to stay for 75 days without returning to Canada. I had mentioned this very basic plan to many friends over the past few months, and am now working to pull it off. I have a very good friend residing in Europe that will be also visiting Asia for a period of time in the winter. While we do not expect to be booking flights until late September or early October, the plan is simple. The intent is that I will fly into Europe, and meet up with my friend, then travel to Asia on the same flight. We will spend a month, or whatever time my friend has, then they will return to Europe and I will join up with some of my Thai friends.
My Thai friends and I will go over to the Philippines for several weeks and visit there for the first time, for any of us. Whatever time is left will be spent back in Thailand. I will return to Canada via Europe around the middle of March.....about the time the snow starts to go away.
There are many details to work out for this to happen, but there is no doubt that it will. The concept is outlined here. Now, we will define what area we will visit in Thailand, so my friend will have a good look at Asia. While there are over 30,000 temples there, we will limit our visits to three or four, although most are fabulous to see. I usually take guests to see the Golden Buddha, which is tons of pure gold, and is part of the Royal Palace, and the nearby Buddha, of pure jade.
This is my plan to avoid most of the cold weather that we get here in Ottawa. I hope to return to this site in September, (which is just over a month away), and put up some photos of my last trip. I need to find someone to come over and walk me through the process with Windows ten and this website.
At that time, I should have more details of the next adventure.
See you in September.
