Thailand Conference

Did you know that we were planning a trip to Thailand? Our company has a mandatory conference every year in the northern city of Chiang Mai.


Purpose: Getting all 500 of us together from Mongolia, China, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia for business, encouragement and professional development. Families take advantage of the inexpensive and quality medical and dental care. We will at least have our annual teeth cleaning, see a prenatal doctor, and get Titus caught up on some standard immunizations.

Why Thailand? Not only is it very traveler-friendly, it's a central location and it's a very open country compared to those I just mentioned.


Our Itinerary:
1/22
--- 7:30am city bus to train station
--- 8:00am airport shuttle to airport
--- 9:30am flight to Shenzhen, near Hong Kong
--- 12:30pm land in Shenzhen, airport shuttle to city center, rent a by-the-hour hotel room for naps

--- 6:10pm airport shuttle back to airport
--- 11:30pm flight to Bangkok

1/23
--- 2:30am arrive in Bangkok, cab to hotel, crash, rest, recover from the trauma of taking a red-eye flight with a 16-month old
--- 4:00pm shuttle back to airport
--- 7:30pm flight to Chiang Mai

... to be continued


If we do anything cool, we'll try to snap some pictures and let you know. Mostly it's just meetings. And enjoying the warm sun in between. And the clean-ness (everything seems spotless compared to China!). And the western food. Pizza here we come.
