The reason I have stressed planning ahead, is it took me three weeks to find these rooms. It's 37 Klms form the evnt through mountain roads not exactly the best hing to ride at night with a fwe beers under your belt
But it is a really beautiful place, with good food, including the breakfast included with the room. Our bikes were photographed everybody and his little brother. Some Thai's showed up with sport bikes, they smiled and nodded but never offered to talk, so we didn't get to know them.
Remember the ,little quirks, on the first night we were leaving to go from Dan Sai to go back to the resort. I go to the bike, to change my un glasses to my normal ones, cuase it si pitch dark.I'm franticv can;t find them anywhere. Turns out my wife took very good care of me took off the bike and left tme in the room. So I ca't see and we ahve 37 Klms of mountian roads to do in the dark. Dil led me back to the room. I felt like tha blind little mouse character with the cane, but we made it. :roll:
Somewhere along the line can't remember which day I decided it was time to have a few beers. I remembered the next day why I don't drink beer and take my pain medication. Oh well I w having a great time and it was time for a beer. :wink:
QUIRKS
At about four clock we were having few drinks and thinking about heading back to the resort for a shower and some dinner. We get a call fom the resort yuo will never believe where the Princess was having dinner that night. So we are told we can't go back to our room till 8:00 P.M. Now I wasn't real happy about that, But I can understand the security aspects.
About seven Klm from the resort towards Loie we had seen a sign that said Staek, we had ate the carival about three times so it was time for a change. I'm expecting the normal excuse for steak. Not hardly he buys his beef from the Co Op in Sukonakorn. For 115 baht we got a great steka dinner with garlic breaqd. So it all worked out nicely.
We got back to the resort about 2030 adn had called ahead o see if we could get in our rooms. Sure no problem. We arrive we are stopped by the fifth calvery. They finally let us take our bikes in and we get into our room about 2100 hours TT and all worked out for the better anyway :wink:

Phone numbers:

Rooms start at 400 baht for a fan room and 900 for a baic aircon room. Up to 2800 baht. Now I wanted a place for a shower and to sleep, so 900 worked out just fine for me. Lucky took a fan room and had no complaints. Forget abou watching TV unless your fluent in Thai.
We actually had a discount to 800 because we were renting five room but two guys didn't saty, so 900 :lol:
