TOQ Tired Old Queen
Don't feed the trolls, Don't feed the trolls, I keep telling myself ..........
That's fang? OK, report, report I want to go, it's all on you if I go or not.

Note: I don't think that lovely photo of a masculine derriere is from Fang, but you would have to check with TOQ or photobucket.
Fang is a growing city, and it's almost a happening place by now. There are loads of friendly Shan people there, land prices are low, it's cooler in the mornings and the evenings (cooler than Chiang Mai, that it), and there are EVEN bars and nightclubs. Oh, the air is cleaner, too.
I wound up staying in the hotel picked for me by my Shan friends, a place called the Viva Hotel but which used to have another name. I cleverly deduced this from seeing the old sign for the old hotel, still prominently displayed. The room was basic but clean: a nice big bed, A/C, and hot water, for a whopping 450 baht.
The festivities that night were really something, getting ready for the big Poy Sang Long parade in the morning. In particular, a guy I like very much did his super performance of what I think of as "The Bird of Paradise" dance -- very athletic, fast, and impressive.
I went home the next day: something happened that night that I really needed to think about -- something to do with romance, love, and sex. But I'm pretty sure I'll go back soon. Next trip: Wiang Pa Pao for a 14yo boy ordaining as a Real Permament Monk, and then I want to go to Wiang Haeng, and see the little Shan town north of it.
Not exactly the travel log or report I was hoping for but glad you had a good time.
Not as bad as a recent conversations I had:
I am thinking of going to Nakhon Si Thammarat
--Yes, been there
You like it?
--yes
You going to go again?
--no
why?
--been there
What did you like about Nakhon Si Thammarat?
--yes, been there once
