Sometimes the differences in culture are glaring and sometimes it's weird to imagine the massive geographical space between where we are and what we are used to. And sometimes one finds delight in the small changes from home.
We are in Chiang Mai, getting ready to head back to Bangkok and then on to Hong Kong tomorrow. We are past the half way point for this trip - damn is it going fast - and Michael has safely joined us.
As it is our halfway point we have treated ourselves to a nice hotel, which bears a lot of resemblance to a nice hotel in the states. It's the little things that remind you how far from home you are. Here's a few:
No durians allowed in the room.
The books in the bedside table.
Okay, this isn't so country specific, it's just a fun way to let the staff know you want your bed remade.
This one isn't country specific either. But heck, it's fun too.
Each room on the ground floor has it's own koi.
I like the little things.
