impulse Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I don't know whether it's the cold weather drawing in more tourists, or the incredibly hot weather in BKK and points south pushing them north for a little relief. I'd be one of them if work didn't get in the way of the important stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 My wife and I will be 2 of the mentioned tourists from Bangkok heading north this weekend to enjoy the cool/cold weather. We plan to be in Inthanon NP by Monday for a few days camping before heading farther north on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugocnx Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I don't know whether it's the cold weather drawing in more tourists, or the incredibly hot weather in BKK and points south pushing them north for a little relief. I'd be one of them if work didn't get in the way of the important stuff. Doi Inthanon is a cooler place than BKK all over the year. So alot of tourist now says nothing about people seeking some relief. They'd better done that in the real hot season. This is again typical 'tourist attitude'. Sorry no hee ma yet.
