Welcome to our 208th week of Travel Photo Thursday, and Happy New Year! Since arriving in Thailand I have literally not stopped. I have loved every minute of the last 2 weeks, and now I’m looking forward to a couple of days of relative solitude. I took this shot earlier today at the Chiang Mai moat, while walking home from a New Year’s Day lunch. This is my first shot of Chiang Mai in the new year, and my first shot of 2015.
To join in the Travel Photo Thursday fun simply post a photo on your blog.

Where did you spend New Year’s day? Did you take your first photo of 2015?
Food, culture, museums, architecture, the people, and unplanned surprises are what I love most about travel. Forty countries and counting.

We spent the New Year in Townsville Nancie. It goes without saying that I would rather be beside the moat in Chiang Mai 🙂
Happy New Year, Jan! I wouldn’t mind swimming in Townsville on New Year’s Day 🙂
Beautiful photo, Nancie! Happy New Year to you and wishing you more safe travels in 2015! We were at home for New Years but about to go out to take some first photos. I wish I was there with you in Thailand 🙂 Enjoy the rest of your holiday!
Happy New Year, Mary! One of these years you’ll have to plan a winter trip to Chiang Mai!
Happy New Year, Nancie! (^_^) Warmest greetings for the holidays to you and your loved ones!
Happy New Year! All the best for 2015.
A bit late to the party, but Happy New Year!
Hi Denise. Happy New Year. I hope that 2015 is your best year yet!
Happy New Year to you, also.
It’s been too long since I’ve been to Chang Mai, I love walking all the streets and areas around those canals. Happy New Years to you!
Beautiful photo. Makes me want to get my camera and go hunting for good shots. Have a great 2015.
New Year’s for me was mellow this year – I was recuperating from my EU Christmas market extravaganza the week before. Happy New Year to you & happy travels in 2015!
Travel photo Thursday is a great way to share travels. Happy New Year, Nancie.
We will be going to Thailand in April, really looking forward to it! Good to know you have been having such a great time, look forward to reading some blog posts and joining in for travel photo Thursdays 🙂
I am hoping we will spend next winter in SE Asia. If so, Chiang Mai will be on the list. Lovely photo. Happy New Year from Australia!
Great photo! I’m heading to Chiangmai in a few weeks. I’m so excited!
Thailand is so beautiful! Great photo!!
Gorgeous Photo! And to answer your question, we’ve already begun the New year with taking lots of photos. We always have our cameras ready when traveling to new places!
This looks like a wonderful place to be anytime, including the first of the year. We enjoyed family skiing on the Solitude mountain resort slopes on this day.
Great photo to kick off the year. I remember being really surprised by the fountains in the moat.
We absolutely loved Chiang Mai. It’s such a quiet place!
Great post. The picture is breathtaking. sounds like an amazing place to spend your holiday. Thank you for sharing this post with us.
