Be aware, this entry has got 69 photos :)
黄金三角 Golden Triangle, Thailand (source 1 and 2) is the name of the area which covers Thailand, Myanmar and Laos near the point where the three countries meet. It used be the very famous area for opium Nowadays the opium production decreased. The name remained for tourists who just want to see the point. You don't see any special things here. Just a normal Mekong River view and huge commercial development is much bigger than one of Chiang Sean. There is a Casino in Myanmar side and there was an idea which this area becomes a international tax heaven or gamble heaven with the connection to China by boats.
Really nothing special in Golden Triangle, however you should visit it once :) the boat ticket is 300 baht for one person.
Four countries tourist map
A happy lady without her man
We didn't go to this temple (I don't even know if it's a temple or what), I zoomed and snapped this shot. It was so far away ;)
Eyes like line, cheeks like bread, you can't see my eyes but you see a slice of bread. Somehow, I still love this pic, I think I have cute smile :)
2nd shot
Our reflection
Happy lady and her man, hahaha
Hmm..a lot of "me" :D
Ah, me again
ERM, meee again
Yes, that's the boat which charged us 300 baht for one person
God bless me, I don't swim
Hey I was kinda worried, kept talking to people to distract myself..the boat isn't that big but a lot of passengers
We passed by Golden Buddha Temple (I don't know the correct name)
Some photos along the way to Laos
That's the Myanmar Casino
It was a good day, didn't rain :)

The man lives in tree, so romantic... I always wanted a tree house :)
Obviously the lady was fishing :P
So beautiful... :)
If I'm not mistaken, this is Laos
Roughy 20 minutes later, we reached Laos ^^
Yeaaaaa!
I didn't die, the boat was not as lousy as I thought :P
Welcome to Donsao ^^
Some Laos guys, hehee!

Want a Laos stamp?
The man in grey shirt can help :P
We were lining up to get our passport stamped
Hmmm?
Somehow the chop is without our arriving date :)
I saw a mail box,
What will happen if I put my passport inside? :P
Wowoo
Anyone?
Molly is a very cute lady, she is merely a year older than me ^^
Yikes!
We didn't have guts to try it
Things to buy here...
Nah, not these kind of masks, scarrrrry
Maybe this one?
Cute cute
This is the way they draw the eyes of wooden dolls
Hmmmm...this one?
No no no, my mum will scold me
"Why buy this one? Who's going to wipe it every week?"
Not me, so I didn't buy
Sarongs?
Erm...no

Finally, I saw something I wanted to buy
Shawls, scarfs...

Me chatting with Molly

And this
Ermmm...actually I didn't intend to take photo with him, but he was there
"Do you want to take a photo with him?" Kevin asked me
"Ooh okay"
"Erm do you mind to take a photo with me?" I asked the man
"What? ME?! Really???" His reaction was big and he was very surprised
"Wowwwww, I'm so happy, she wants to take photo with me!" He screamed and told the whole world. This was why I smiled like this :D
30 minutes later, going back to Thailand
The children behind me in this photo were asking for money, I didn't give them. It's not about being generous or kind-hearted. I have my own point of view, I will talk about this next time
Xu Ying :)
She is a volunteer from China, currently staying in Thailand to teach Mandarin. Friendly and lovely! ^^
Lovely couple from Hong Kong :D
Thank god, I speak Cantonese, hehee
After we left Golden triangle, we headed to a restaurant called XXXXXXXX, huhuhu...I don't speak Thai. I don't even know if this is the name of the restaurant :'(
Tourists from all over the world, Thailand is a very lovely country, I'm very happy we are neighbours :)
