This year I really wanted to take the bike to cycle at the skylane, it’s amazing a free track of 23km around the Airport with bike shops , supermarkets, shops & restaurants. There is enough parking and everything is clean. For a country like Thailand this is really modern , wen I was riding in there I was not feeling like I have been in Thailand but in a country like Singapore with all his modern and clean architecture. They can learn from this one down south in the Netherlands. Really great

Normally, I drove to Pattaya or may be Amphawa or Hua Hin but this time we tried Bang Kachao or Sri Nahkhon Khuen Khan Park and Botanical Garden in Phra Pradaeng District, Samut Prakan instead. See from the many reviews, you may also take BTS [Stop at Bang Na station] then you take the boat and you may rent a bike to go to this park, water market and explore this little island or so called 'The Green Lung of Bangkok' too. But as you know, we drove and rent a whole day bike [THB 50 per bike per day], we also bought some water and food to go along and the mission is only to bike, to stop for photos and to enjoy! Nice, fabulous, energy boosting and fun! Why? There are so many green stuffs, pond, birds and a lot of places for you to take nice photos to post on your social media. Try one day and you'll like it - See our great shots!

Bangpu Nature Education Center is on the south coast of Samut Prakan Province, an area of mangrove forests and mud flats leading to the waters of the Gulf of Siam. Over the years the area has been over-fished and mangrove trees have been harvested to produce charcoal. All of this led to devastation of the area and further encroachment of high water levels. The Bangpu Nature Education Center aims to educate people as to the importance of coastal mangrove forests as both breakwaters between the sea and the land, but also as the essential spawning grounds of so many coastal birds, fish, crabs, prawns, shrimps and other sea life. You start your tour with short films in the Education Center then set off on boardwalks through the mangrove forests, looking out for various bird and sea life. We spotted numerous "walking fish", ugly little critters that walk across the mud on two modified fins at the front of their bodies. I whimsically thought that perhaps that these were my ancestors which first came from the sea to the land. We saw a a few small crabs, which quickly scuttled away as they saw us coming. We also saw several different species of birds, but not being an ornithologist, I did not know their names. I did note the impressive efforts being made along this part of the Thailand coastline for mangrove reafforestation, with small mangrove trees being planted in front of the older mangroves to extend them out across the mud flats. Bamboo fences have been built in front of them to protect them from the waves until they establish themselves. All in all, a heartwarming hope for Planet Earth.
