ok I understand and hope on good results of test. When I know more about staying in Photsanuloke I could better plan. I could ask for hotel in Bkk after or at 16th for a weekend and then the following working days would spend in Phit. I am not sure about follow up. Either staying longer North or moving to another country where guests at the beaches are welcome. Maybe I book the progfram roughly and we settle dates for meetings llater. So Ms Nattakarn could do her job and find the driver and guide/transllator later. What is your budget for the week with friends in the mountains? Cost. ? Now I must leave house. Take care and reply. Best wishes for further tests! Jürg
