With the help of the People's Association, 3 Singaporean families spent a week experiencing rice harvesting at Tigerland Rice Farm on 20-26 Nov 2010.

We also returned to Tigerland Rice Farm to visit Kitt, Father Gun and Mother Tomei, and to plan for 2011 programs.

This time, we flew to Chiang Mai to meet old pal Eric Low, who kindly drove us to Chiang Rai the next day in his 4WD Pajero.

Enroute to Chiang Rai, we stopped by at a Hot Spring for loo break, hot tea and to soak our feet in the piping hot spring water for good health. The water was amazingly hot and there was a bubbling pool that the locals boil quail eggs in!

Finally we arrived at Father Gun's home and met Kitt and his wife and 2 sons!

Robyn made new friends in Julian and Ashley, who just completed their rice harvesting with Michele and Erlena.

Nice shot?

Together, we reviewed the eco-programs we conducted this year and designed new programs for the new year. There's new adventures to look for in 2011!

After lunch, we hit the road in two 4WD and headed for Chiang Rai city for coffee, and then Eric took us back to Chiang Mai. We returned to Singapore the next day.

We look forward to another exciting year in 2011 in which we'll bring more Singapore families to discover the wonders of nature and rice farming at TigerlandRiceFarm.biz.
