Travel Chiang Mai --- (3)

เที่ยวเชียงใหม่ --- (3)

5/7/2011, The third day of my trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand. After yesterday, the hotel change my room to the eighth floor which cannot use the internet, I was so upset, why they had to change my room because they want to spray the pesticide, why not do that when we check out? So, my mother call the reception last night and we gonna change a room again today to 7th floor which was perfect. I like this room, today we gonna rest for a day just stay at the hotel. But Hey, we will lose a lot of time right? so, we decided to go toooooooooooooooo ---> Chiang Mai Night Safari.

This is the main building at night

We meet call the taxi driver at the hotel at 4.30 pm and we takes about 20 minutes to get there from our hotel. We arrive at the front gates and see many deer walking everywhere here. the taxi driver let us go at the entrance of the main facility shown above and we buy a ticket for taking a night safari ride which we will take a vehicle to see everything here. The next bus will be at about 5.30 so now its still 5.00 so we have time. So, we go and play with the deer that walking around and taking photos with them too. We can touch them but they kind of afraid us a little so we got to come slowly from behind of the deer. Its really fun. We also see the white tiger which said to be very rare in the world nowadays. And finally its time, the facility are separate into two zones which have different animal. we take a north zone first and get on the bus. They also sell vegetable for us to feed the animal which cost 20 baht a bucket. We all buy one and starting the tour. The bus take us slowly into the animal areas like the one in the picture below where there are many giraffe and we can feed them as well.

Its was very fun. The sky now gone darker and darker as the sun drop to the horizon. Now its completely dark. The bus have spotlight for us to see the animal at night which was very great. But its impossible to take a picture now because the spotlight isn't enough, all the picture came out dark and blur so we kinda stop taking a photo. The trip continue and we get of the bus at the north zone then continue to the south zone terminal and take a tour. its been very great to see many animal here which we can touches it, but beware of some animal like zebra which can bite off your finger. After we finish the south zone, we go to see the dancing fountain its kind of a bit too far from us so we cant see them quite amazing or many be its isn't big enough. After finished watching dancing fountain, we go to get our free photos (2x2 cm) which was a little one which we can get it for free. But they also sell bigger one for 100 baht though. After that, we head back to the hotel.
