Sometimes the brochure looks better. Well, usually. Today we stopped at a resort called the Tree House a little bit outside of town. The ride there on the backs of motorbike taxis was excellent. We got some great views looking out over the green valley where Pai sits. We had a meal at the Tree House restaurant then walked the grounds. There were, indeed, a few buildings in a tree that are available to rent - very cool. An elephant walked by with her mahout and 2 people on top. The elephant stopped and sniffed my hand then walked on. After checking out Tree House, we walked up the road about a kilometer to soak in the hot spring. Had to do this at a "spa" since at the actual spring you can only dip a toe. The "spa" was completely past its prime. The grounds were unkempt, the fixtures rundown. The pool for soaking wasn't very clean, but the water was warm and we were the only people there. It was quite lovely, despite being overcharged. A lovely ride on motorbikes back to town topped the lovely day.
