NEW YEAR'S EVE - NORTH OF THAILAND PART II

My ultimate travel and experience in the north of Thailand were unforgettable. So this is the continuation of my adventure up north (of Thailand). One of our New Year's adventures was trekking around the hotspots of Pai Maehonsong. After we spent a day and a night shopping around the proper town of Pai - we headed up to the highest peak of the place which we spent New Year's eve. As expected, the road going up was a series of short sharp turns which equally interior with un-denuded trees. Upon reaching the mountain, we were in the instance of hard finding a spot to put up our tents just as the place was overcrowded with kindred vacationists. Lucky us we were, within a minute or two - we blissfully found enough space to set up our tents. To my amazement, my homesickness was practically slipped by for a moment as my eyes were being googled by the unspoiled beauty of the mountain. Both sides of the mountain are surrounded by fascinating wildlife & pristine forest. The ancient lush forest with huge timeless rubber trees, amazing green scenery, and deep silence and serenity made me feel relax at once. Freezing cold wind causally made us shiver when it touches us, untiring breathtaking views continued to make us on awed while we didn't stop appreciating the beauty of nature and taking pictures.
