03-Mar-2025 -- My daughter accompanied me to Thailand to explore a bit of the country I have lived in and visited many times. She has heard about it all her life. Additionally, she has learned a lot about the Degree Confluence project, particularly my more adventurous visits. Could we possibly find a confluence point somewhere in Thailand now?
With a good car, it took us less than an hour from Chiang Mai. Google Maps guided us to within a couple of hundred meters of the confluence point. The weather was pleasant—not too hot—and the ground was dry. About a hundred meters from the confluence point, there was a line of trees blocking our path. We discovered a passable route through the shrubs, where we found some cluster figs that did not taste like ordinary figs. I later learned that this fruit is used in curries.
The confluence point was located in the middle of a wide field. We took the required photos and left this very easy confluence point.
Ps. The date/time on the Garmin is not correct
