| My £8 a night bungalow at Khao Yai |
 |
| Jungle guide Beer holds a yellow whipsnake that I also held - feeling its subtle smoothness as it wove its way expertly back to the greenery |
 |
| Jungle shadows which I have posted especially for The Blogger of the Year in New Zealand. |
 |
| The scorpion that Beer pulled from its sleepy lair. He thought it would be funny toput this handsome fellow on my muscular upper arm - like a living tattoo |
 |
| Beer tried to take a photo of a swinging gibbon by pressing my SLR against his telescope. As you can see - it didn't really work. |
 |
| Salty lake in the middle of the jungle where elephants come to drink and defecate in the early morning. It is called Nong Phak Chi. |
looking at your arm under the scorpion, I would say you need some skin cream.
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos, as usual. Glad to see you are enjoying your run ashore!
HIPPO Ha! Ha! There are pictures of me with the scorpion on my arm but I have turned into such an old git, I'd rather not reveal my wizened visage.
ReplyDeleteWow YP*, you are really getting into the tactile side of the jungle, aren't you!? Thank you for 'my' photo. I am 'touched'. But I'll leave the other touching for you to do. Brrrr.
ReplyDelete* I've decide to rename you with a Thai name: 'Pramod Sud' which means 'Happy Tiger'
You can have the jungle
ReplyDeleteI don't do creepy crawlies
They make me squeal
How very tarzan of you YP....critters give me the creeps.

ReplyDelete"Nong Phak Chi" is actually the sound of elephants defecating in the early morning.
ReplyDeleteA true Thai jungle guide would not be named Beer. A true Thai jungle guide would be named Dai Quiri.
KATHERINE Pramod Sud? I like it! What is "of horse" or "de chevalle" in Thai I wonder.
ReplyDeleteEARL GRAY I thought it was only Matt Cardle that could make you squeal...and that butch cop from "Road Wars"!
LIBBY Me Tarzan. You Jane. To jungle. Come woman. Tarzan he go AII-EEAIII!
RHYMES WITH LINGUIST I didn't realise that you were so knowledgeable about the Thai language!Do your talents know no bounds?
