We were up early this morning. Program for today would be visits to Orchid farm and the elephant ride and everyone was excited.
We met with Yu Pin our tour guide at the lobby. A very sweet lady who comes from Chiangmai itself. These Thai girls are very pretty I must say... smooth complexion and very soft spoken. When she first introduced herself, I thought of YouTube. "Yu Pin" and You Tube...they sound almost the same.
Yu Pin told us that the trip to the elephant farm would take about 1 hour. But we will first make a quick stop at the orchid farm.

Tee was our driver again for today. Since it was still morning the drive was ok. The sun had started to blaze its heat but it was still bareable. In a few minutes we arrived at the orchid farm.
There were lines and lines of blooming orchid flowers in bright and vibrant colours of purple, orange, red and yellow. They were so beautiful. We were snapping pictures at almost every corner that had flowers.
Yu Pin mentioned that we were to spend about 20 minutes here. But as usual we got stucked at the souviner area choosing orchid broaches for ourselves.
Of course, once we have made our purchases...the big smiles were so distinct. "Hai...kat ladang orkid pun boleh shopping tu." That was my remark to everyone and I was one of the culprits myself!!When we met Yu Pin at the van...she smiled. Ha..ha...she now knew that if there's one thing that would make us tick...it would be SHOPPING!!!
It was getting hotter and we were gald to be in Tee's van heading towards the elephant camp.
