    Obviously! Unless they are psychic. As Bontong, who lives there, wrote, avoid late February until late April. Do you know more than that?!

    Does Lupins have a branch there giving you the updates?

    What's a dedicated pattayaphile doing in Chiang Mai? On his way to visit the cave?

    Thanks for your input, guys.

    On past holidays, I've gone for big odysseys through multiple countries. This year I just want to go somewhere where I can just lounge around and relax for a couple weeks. Somewhere relaxing, with a bit of Nightlife but not too much, where I can get a cheap (clean) massage, plenty of cheap beer, and the occasional money boy for the night (if I feel like it).

    Ha that IS a fair point !

    Thankfully I tend to keep my journeys fairly short when there and only make them on my own motorbike so it's just bearable as I'm quite happy nipping about like that, but yes between potholes, other crazy drivers, lack of much moving and finally police men jumping out from behind trees to fine me for forgetting / not bothering to wear my helmet yes I have to agree that "relaxing' Bali's roads are not ! Still, at least I always feel like I've been away when I get back from there as travelling on their roads IS a whole other experience I guess.

    Yes...P and I love Bali but our last visit (eighteen months ago) was seriously disrupted by the fact that our taxi (booked with a guide for the duration) was forever locked into jams, narrow roads and congestion. We reckoned that it took an hour to get from Seminyak to the more open roads which led to our chosen destinations.
    I can well understand that the motor-cys represent a more effective way of getting around.
