Already two visits this year! After Patricia in January, we were honored by Rolf & Burgi's visit in February. During the weekend of 8 February, we went together to Khao Yai Natural Reserve north of Bangkok. Khao Yai is famous for its scenic beauty, wildlife, impressive bat caves and local wineries. The picture above with the black "cloud" depicts in fact a swarm of millions of bats coming out of a cave to go hunt for food at dusk. A very impressive sight. During the day, the local guide had showed us some of the fascinating wildlife in and around the park, including snakes, huge spiders and also gecko's... We also managed to have a lunch at the PB Winery, founded by a Thai businessman who wanted to create a winery in exotic Thailand. The wines exist in a number of varieties and are generally more than decent but difficult to find outside of Thailand. Rolf & Burgi had an intense week of sightseeing but still managed to take in a lot of sights and even buy some home decoration materials! The weather in Bangkok has been heating up steadily and at the time of writing (1 March), the humidity levels have gone up already a lot since a few weeks back.
