• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

Your country looks beautiful. The train ride reminds me of the ride from Cairns to Kuranda (in Australia) which I experienced back in the 90's.

Thanks. It is beautiful but increasingly all the beautiful places are getting crowded and built up. For example Ella was a tiny rural village without even a shop. There were some plantation worker houses and that's all. Today there are banks, pizza ovens, and cappuccino shops. It's totally a purpose built tourist village with every inch built up.

The train ride is still beautiful though, and the train goes through 46 tunnels. One favourite photo of any tourist is the one taken from the foot-board. If you Google "Ella train ride" that's the kind of photo you would see. lol.
