Something's going on among the leaves.

Something's going on among the leaves. They are whispering to me, and I am listening to them intently.

มีบางอย่างเกิดขึ้นท่ามกลางกิ่งไม้ใบหญ้า ทันใดนั้นใบไม้ได้กระซิบฉันเบาๆ ฉันตั้งใจฟังอย่าใจจดใจจ่อ

A little heavy lifting, I am always giving.

A little heavy lifting, I am always giving. Always do what best for the bride. It's her day.

หนักนิดเบาหน่อยเรายกได้ เพื่อเจ้าสาวเพราะมันเป็นวันของเธอ

KRABI: The Extraordinary Power of the Smile - Saline Hot Spring Part 2

Running into the wild...

I am still at Saline Hot Spring Resort. Apart from enjoying the hot spring, I decided to go running outside the resort today. Running along the rural road (Huai Nam Khao, Khlong Thom District), It was such a nice experience. 

I have discovered something simple but it's something extraordinary for me. What I discovered was "HUGE SMILES" from all the local people I ran past. Literally everyone. The local people were very friendly and helpful. I would say "The Extraordinary Power of the Smile" which makes me wanna explore Krabi even more.

In Stockholm where I live now, people don't smile at every face they see especially in the winter. I guess that what I miss about Thailand :).

Met these lovely kids on the way. 
They really wanted  me to take their photograph.

If you like running, this is an option apart from soaking yourself in the hot spring in this area.

Big smiles from the local people.

Lying down on the street, looking up in the sky, I feel content.

KRABI: Saline Hot Spring at Khlong Thom, Krabi Part 1

Today I visited Saline Hot Spring one of the tourist attraction in Khlong Thom district. Driving 45 kilometres from the city using Route 4 (Highway 4038- Phet Kasem Road).

The average of the hot spring water here is 45 degree celsius (or 114 degree fahrenheit) which is a safe temperature for bathing. In this area, there are 14 different public hot spring ponds. Soaking in a hot spring need not be solely reserved for a relaxing vacation or a weekend getaway. The therapeutic use of water could be just what the doctor ordered when it comes to relieving pain, stress , increasing circulation, promoting relaxation and more.

Entrance of the Hot Spring:

-20 Thai Baht For Thai people 

-100 Thai Baht For Foreigner   
  

Opening & Closing: 
5 am to 9 pm everyday

Most Thai people visit the hot spring early in the morning between 5 am to 8 am ,and again in the afternoon from 4 pm to 9 pm. For you who do not like big crowds, you should visit the place between 9 am to 4 pm. 

What to bring to the hot spring?

- Water. Stay hydrated is the key to a fun healthy day at the pool 
- Flip Flop.
- Camera. Capture the day's fun for posterity.
- Chang of clothes.
- Towel.
- Swimsuit (optional). Most People are wearing loose t-shirt and short. 
- Last but not least. Good energy!!!!

Warm feet....

For those who would like to spend more than a day at the hot spring. There are several hotels and resorts nearby. I stayed over at Saline Hot Spring Resort, the closest resort to the hot spring. It only takes less than 5 minutes walking distance to the public hot spring.

The resort itself does provide private hot spring pools outdoor as well as private hot spring pools inside the rooms. You can enjoy your bathing for 24 hours.

The concept for all rooms with private pool were bulit with Japanese style interior design. I think it really suits for honeymoon couple of lovebirds.

I really recommend this resort. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The surroundings are very pleasant. Calm and quite.......
