We Arrive In Udon Thanni

and checked into our hotel,

it was recommended to us by Mikey and what a find it was,

we were told it was 340 baht a night, so we booked 3 nights, imagine our surprise when we had not even entered our rooms when the receptionist arrived saying we had a 20 baht a night discount as we were staying for three days, never had that happen before, maybe I am getting cynical in my old age, but I feel most places especially in Pattaya would not have said a word! the rooms were clean with no problems at all, well done Mikey! so the score so far, stopped by police 3 times, fines total 200 baht, not to bad considering how much I was "fined" the last time I went to Buriram! then off to Lotus, a few munchies for eats at Mas's family's house, they live about 30 kilometers outside of Udon Thanni,

we arrive just as the sun is setting and the cows are coming home for the night, Mas, Mick, Mas's sister Aom, Mas's Mum and Diana,

inside the house there are pictures of Mick and Mas everywhere,

Mas and Mum,

most of the family together Mas's Dad sitting next to Mick,

lots of food and drink,

Mas's mother very kindly gave me a table or bed cover, then it was back to the hotel as next morning Diana had to go over the border to Lao so she could renew her visa.
