Upgraded! Epic Bungalow at Hotspring Beach Resort and Spa!!
Hotspring Beach, Resort and Spa in Phang Nga. One of the THE BEST places we've ever stayed. Here's a link to their website: http://www.thehotspringbeach.com/
Took a break from my meetings and took the BTS Skytrain just One stop: from Thong Lo to Phrom Phong. Many people associate Phrom Phong with the two malls: EM Quarter (north side of Sukhumvit) and Emporium (south side of Sukhumvit). Our initial motivation was to check out something Super touristy -- Dinasour Planet. BUT, we opted for the infinitely less expensive (i.e. FREE) Benchasiri Park. After reading the Google reviews of Dinasour Planet it seemed like a pretty easy choice actually. So, this is Part 1 of our afternoon walk and discovery around Benchasiri Park. Thanks for watching. ...stay tuned for more.

Part 3 in the Ao Nang Beach, Krabi, Thailand series of beach walking and exploration brings me to the topic of environment and how IMPORTANT I believe that is to my physical and mental health.
As part of my AirAsia Unlimited Pass, I headed down to Krabi, took a minivan \to Ao Nang beach and began a vacation that ended up turning into an EXCELLENT week of reflection, prioritization, thinking, planning and gratitude.
Here's video #3 of... several. Stay tuned :-)
Here's the Agoda link to the SEA SEEKER KRABI RESORT that I got to stay at for 3 nights.

I took a nice long motorbike ride up through the mountains of Koh Phangan to the North East side to one of the many awesome little village with pristine sand; a beach paradise.
Thong Nai Pan Yai Beach is where I gratefully ended up.
However, during this experience I was reminded of just how detrimental all of this global nonsense has been on the tourism industry. Its especially noticable when in a village that is about 95% reliant on Foreign Tourism. With Thailand's borders still closed the result is ZERO people on beaches. That part I like. During this walk and talk I thought I'd take you into a "ghost resort". I really hope that these people in this town can survive through this and end up in a more prosperous time soon.
BUT, of course, smoking Hope-ium rarely has concrete results.
So, join me for a walk along the beach and I'll look forward to hearing your thoughts, opinions and experience!
#gratitudeAttack :--)
Thanks for watching,
Live the Dream my friends!

As I was driving into work this morning, it struck me that one of the cool little pieces of technology that has entered my life is the sensors on my rear view mirror... I have not had to toggle the mirror to control the brightness in 3 cars now... so, that's about 9 years of no toggling. Has that improved my life significantly? Probably not. Are there 100 other things in the last 9 years (...9 months?) that have improved the quality of my life through technology? I bet there are!!!

Whether you are a "foodie" or not, and I'm not, the Cha-Am Night Market is really a cool place to go. The more time we spend in Cha-Am the more I like it. I LOVE the fact that its a sleepy city by the beach that is also closer to a busier city (Hua Hin) and closer to a globally known city of commerce: Bangkok.
Cha-Am has A LOT going for it. AND to add to my list of "why I love Cha-Am" is one more item: The Cha-Am night Market.
The *only* think I don't like about the Cha-Am night market? It only happens once a week :-(
Hardly a deal breaker!
Every Wednesday evening starting about 4pm at the end of Narathip Road, just before you get to the Cha-Am Railway station, you blessed with the sights and sounds of what a local Thai Night market is. There is food... GREAT FOOD! and clothes and electronics and make-up and even some little pets like small puppies and fish. Its hardly the size of Chatuchak in Bangkok but I like it more!
So, on this Wednesday we got there about 4:30pm and walked around, eating as we stocked up on munchies as well, until about 6pm when we took the motorbike home.
I discovered that by the time we were leaving parking was non existent and our parking right up front got taken about 3 seconds after I was motioning towards the bike.
Its a really cool experience - Highly recommended.
Thanks for watching.
Live the Dream!
