Himalayas in flip flops

Here are pics of the Vachirathan waterfall. Doi Inthanon is the National Park just outside Chiang Mai and it contains the highest peak in Thailand - 2800m. It's also part of the Himalayan mountain range. Because of the rain and temperature the climate is a lot different from the rest of Thailand and so is the vegetation. It seemed strange seeing Thais have their photos taken next to fuchsias and I told them I had them at home in my garden, then realised I had neither!
