And now the last part of my trip report from Thailand. Sad, sad ...
After we therefore adopted in writing by Mark, thanked him for his hospitality, because he just had in the university teaching, we took a bus to Chachoengsao (ฉะเชิงเทรา [ʨ ʰ ː àʨɤ̄ ŋsāw] ), home Tiks. Her parents live there, but because they are against the fact that Tik has before graduating from university with a friend, we were able to visit, of course. But first things first ...
Arrived in BigC , a large shopping center, there seems to be in every Thai town, and I waited Tik for the arrival of Mhuey (ห มวย [mǔa̯j] ) and Noom (หนุ่ม [num] ). Meanwhile, I have not bought there a dictionary, but more on that later. The two were then and we found ourselves under a great hunger in a pizza shop. Pizza is also one of the dishes I've eaten no more forever, so I thought it was not too bad to eat sometimes no Thai food. We have beaten the full stomachs, for it was really tasty. Apparently not only Thai food in Thailand delicious. Restaurants and food stores are generally better in Thailand than in China, I think, much cleaner and somehow the quality of her high quality. But Asian food is generally great, as I prophesized so before my flight to China. 
After that we went out we have one last sight "pure pull," Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan (วัด โส ธร ว รา ราม วรวิหาร [WAT sǒ ː t ʰ ɔ̄ ː n wara ː ra ː m ː wóráwíhǎ n] ), a further great Buddhist temple in gold and white. Also inside was all decorated with gold and the ceiling formed a star firmament. Everything looked somehow very well maintained and rebuilt almost from even the Buddha statues . Somehow the whole well done to do with China, as in " backyard" of the temple was there a Chinese gate . Afterwards went to the food, but after all that pizza I've hardly got something down. So I got the Thai version of Jiaozi-like dumplings (jiǎozi, 饺子 [ʨjãɔ̯ʦz̩] ) missed awwwww ...
since around the day in principle and Tik at home with him was long overdue, they looked for me for the last night as possible cheap accommodation. Actually it was being considered to return to Noom and his brother in a residence hall in Bangkok, which was due to its distance to the airport a bit pointless. For 400 ฿ (about 9,50 €) the night we found a kind of small bungalow not far from the bus station. Then Tik is first to her parents with whom they could negotiate but thank God, still, the next morning, her "friends" to accompany even the airport in Bangkok. Meanwhile, I've Anki made, read, Thai TV seen (it was just Militärfesttag), showered and slept. Tik was a little creepy and Mhueys regard, the door to open definitely not if someone knocks. This is dangerous, could well be anyone else! The more frightened I was when it (is Thailand so civilized that it uses the 24-hour system, respect!) At approximately 20:00 in the evening knocked on my door. But it was the caring Tik, who brought me orange juice. How sweet! The next morning at 6:00 then the road to Suvarnabhumi Airport, the second time we were there a lot of time and are therefore stroll eat and gone. Then, the farewell, even if it's only for a month is. Tik has not been able to stop crying ... :.. (
In the passenger area, as I passed an escalator, I saw on the ground then lie but suddenly money Chinese money 300 yuan (33 €, of which one can live a half weeks good), this number was, what a . at 10:55 local time luck went my flight directly to Kunming, arrival time. 2:05 pm (local time and the inconvenient 12-hour system) For the second time I got off the plane from Kunming, the track went to incredible unfriendly passport control and tore my suitcase off the line. Only this time really no tension and anticipation to the time in Kunming.
, one gets a shock when you flies from Thailand to China: it is icecold, people look grumpy and all the staff are extremely unfriendly. In Thailand, bows and Khop khun kha! (ขอบคุณ ค่า [k ʰ ɔ ː k ʰ p ʰ â ː k un] ) said. Dialogue with the passport control of the uniformed man? 什么 学校 - "Hm?" - "Which school?" - Quite a disappointment. Then, the old, gray and red dust soiled buildings that could be seen from the air already (though the photography of China is prohibited from above!), That and the fact that Tik in the beautiful, warm, friendly and modern Thailand bored, I was then also done quite sad.
I then looked for a taxi and leave me to the dorm. The taxi driver complained to me about how stupid it is as a taxi driver's job. The tuk-tuk driver and two bank in Thailand seemed to me in a good mood ...
So that was it, yes yes. The planned route was quite different, but it was so much nicer and worth seeing. The picture right shows once again the stations of our journey, from Kunming to Xishuangbanna, Mohan, Ban Houayxay (ບ້ານຫ້ວຍ ຊາຍ [ba ː n hùa̯jsá ː j] ) - that was the Laotian equivalent of Chiang Khong where we are geschippert on the Mekong - the short detour to the Myanmar border to Mae Sai, the beautiful Chiang Mai, Lampang with the elephant, Mae Sot, Kamphaeng Phet, Chonburi and Chachoengsao and then the airport in Bangkok. Since I've seen almost the whole country except the south and the north-eastern Isan region (อิ สาน [ʔìsǎ ː n] ), in which one speaks a dialect of the Lao similar . It is now nearly a week ago that I'm back here in Kunming, and I miss Thailand very , not only because of Tik. The weather, the people, the food (oooh, the food!), The scenery and the sights are just beautiful, Internet use is not restricted. There are birds and butterflies, in contrast to Kunming, where it unfortunately little birds are (where I like sparrows but that!) . It is no exaggeration wirlich almost a heavenly country. I am surprised not to see so many tourists come to Thailand every year and also a not small number of expats there even settle permanently. Laura said the other day, the poor Tik could not even go on vacation if it is to me, since all other Countries are less beautiful. As I've told the Tik, she has even agreed to. It certainly will not be the last time that I visit Thailand ...
