The temple was good, though very tourist orientated now, and I tend to avoid such places if possible, I think the first half of our holiday was a "general highlight" as we stayed at Belle Villa resort, 45 min drive out of Chaing Mai, up in the hills, I wouldn't bother going to Phuket again, but would certainly go back to Chaing Mai, the other highlight was the food, esp at Chaing Mai, where a good meal would set you back $1.70au. (not at the resort though, that was $$$$$ ) Most of the herps and bugs I found were found here, in some areas of leaf litter there would of been 10 frogs per square meter and every step saw frogs going everywhere and even though the hotel manager assured us there were no snakes on the resort we still found 4 in 4 days.

That big green bug would freak me out looks like a grasshopper and I am petrified of them truly. I would run a mile away. Yes I hold my python. Yeah am crazy but can't get over this fear of grasshoppers at all. Spiders don't scare me. So I will never go to Thailand!!

lol Im the same. When I first got my snake a mate came over to see it. As I was making him and me a coffee a HUGE cockroach crawled out of the cupboard and I dropped the sugar all over the ground.... Oh yeah, I love snakes, and spiders, and even sharks, but oversized bugs scare the crap out of me...
