Day 4: MHS -> Ban Rak Thai -> SoppongBreakfast at resortthey forgot to remove the rock before building the restaurant.. no wait, its a eco resort, even the rock must not be harmed!!see? left side of the hut there’s also a natural rock jutting out of the pavement. (No rocks are harmed in the construction of this resort)ok remembered its Fern ResortCannot cut the trees, any path for hotel guests must be built around it. lolOK first stop, go MHS town to get “Certified”Similar to any well-established educational institute, you have to pay tuition fees and voila, I got the certification from MHS Governor!Before leaving town, go to a Wat (can see the airport runway).
