We invested $4 to buy a CD containing photos of Thailand with quite mixed results.  It had over 500 photos, but many were small and could not be blown up due to poor image quality.  In fact, it was probably the result of someone taking photos from their own & friends' collections, scanning them and burning a CD.  Also, there were about 400 images that were not of Thailand; that is, unless snow-capped Alps have recently been discovered here ... complete with chalets.

However, we managed to retrieve the best ones.  Hopefully these will be a treat for our friends who have already visited Thailand, bringing back some great memories.  And for those of you who haven't visited, they may encourage you to make the trip and do some touring.  The photos with the great ocean views and clearer than clear water are from the South; the ruins are generally from the North and Central regions.

Hard to tell if these waterfalls are in Thailand or not; we included them because they look nice & they may be here (or they may be anywhere!)
