We Found Church! Sticky Waterfall & Chiang Dao Cave

This morning Superman decided to try a Thai breakfast (the hotel has 4 choices). Below is Littlest’s reaction to the smell of the fish chili paste. Not gonna lie, I nearly lost my breakfast when I smelled it. Superman talked to the hotel workers and they don’t even like it! Church was a short 15 […]

Zipline Roller Coaster & Chiang Mai Night Safari

Breakfast was waiting for us this morning covered with little baskets to keep bugs off. The littlest thought they were giving all of us hats. Superman & NixiRay went off on an adventure this morning. A van came to pick them up and took them to a jungle zipline roller coaster. They had a blast […]

Old City Chiang Mai Walking Tour

Hotel breakfast included salad with a dressing that tasted like bacon. Not gonna lie, I don’t think salad is a breakfast food. We also had eggs, ham, sausage that tasted like bland hot dogs, and bread with butter and jam (which doesn’t dry out in 5 seconds like it does at home). Oh, and they […]

Light Up Snowman – Winter Fun

Meet Fritz, our amazing light-up snowman! We thought with 12 inches of new snow we needed to build a snowman. Daddy had an awesome idea and it turned out even better than we thought! We wrapped each ball of the snowman in multi-colored outdoor string Christmas lights, then packed on more snow over the lights. […]

Candy Cane Christmas Cake

One of our favorite Christmas traditions is eating this amazing breakfast cake (honestly it’s more pastry than cake) on the upstairs landing before we go down to the living room to see all the presents. This Christmas breakfast is perfect because it can be made ahead of time and is easily served early Christmas morning. […]

Lots of fun imaginative engineering play, plus fun characters and cars for creative play too. High quality construction […]
