Kicking back in Pai
So we woke up and checked out of Julies. A mini van came and picked us up at 10ish. Jumped in the van with another guy, Ollie, who stayed at Julies as well. Was awsome to find the van had aircon. Was quite a pleasent trip. Once you get out of Chaing Mai the roads start heading up into the hills and get realy windy. Awsome scenery. Took 3 hours to …

This is all part of what I call ...
Chiang Rai, Ahka chilli & Wat Phra Kaew
... if they eat it and he smiled and nodded. We stayed for two nights and then headed off. We were originally going to catch the boat back to Tha Ton which is apparently an amazing ride but the weather wasn't the best so we decided to bus directly to Bangkok instead.
