TRANS THAILAND - just a thought

Sunset, Ao Nang beach, Krabi.

This is what I wrote to my K16 Whatsapp Groupchat.

I want to share with you guys my favorite photos from the recent Trans Thailand adventure. I am currently updating my blog (don't expect a good writing from me. However I will try to compensate it with my photography).

I have to say, we the among the blessed few to be able to own this probably the finest touring machine available today.

Go cross the boundaries!

Its a beautiful machine and the beauty rides beautifully.

And go explore the beautiful world with beautiful people.

Sunset, Pulau Layang

I was talking to my friends at the restaurant. We exchange diving photos. It was raining heavily earlier. I thought the wouldn't be any sunset.


I was wrong.


I looked at my watch, almost 6.30pm - local sunset time.


I took a walk to the edge of the restaurant and captured this with my I-phone.

Kota Kinabalu Sunset

Seriously, KK always have breathtaking sunsets. I have witnessed this many times, from Tanjung Aru and from the jetty near Filipino Market.

Just spectacular.

Sunset-tan, Gili Trawangan

I enjoy the beach.

Every where I go, I make a point to watch the sunsets and the sunrises.

Its magical moments to me.

They only last several minutes in 24 hours. Very rare minutes and should be appreciated.

Golden hour, or magical hour - Only the first and last hour of sunlight during the day.

Wherever you are, in Gili Trawangan or Kuantan or Dungun or Pulau Kapas, or the hot dessert of the ARab Emirates or the freezing Himalayas - wake up early. Its a waste to miss it.

Its a good time to reflect, and to chill.

ENJOY

Mekong golden sunset

Sunset over the Mekong River - derived from "Mae Nam Khong". "mea" meaning "mother" and "nam" meaning "water" or "mother river". "Khong" is derived from the Sanskrit "ganga", meaning the Ganges.

The Mekong is an important source of drinking water, irrigation, food such as fish and riverweed, transportation.

I was quite nervous when I was told that the Mekong will also be a source of hydro power soon.

When the damn dam arrives, the ecology will be disturbed. I hope they will hadle this delicate issue well, before its too late.
