Happy New Year from Chiang Mai, Thailand!!

What did you do for this New Year’s eve? Well…I lit a floating lantern and saw it go into the stratosphere with million others at Chiang Mai in Northern Thailand. The new year celebrations here so exceeded my expectations. It was such a festive atmosphere. There was music, a busy night market with interesting crowds and great food and then there was the floating lanterns and the fire crackers.

It was a beautiful way for me to welcome 2013 and I am sure you all have done your bit to welcome the new year in your own way. Happy 2013 to all of you and let’s hope that we all be blessed with lots of interesting travels.
