Chiangmai, Thailand

As we headed to Chiangmai, we stopped at a certified gem factory, the umbrella factory (got a gorgeous design painted on my jeans for $200 baht - about $6.50 US), and the Celadon factory. After arrival at our hotel, I put my bags in my room and headed off to check out the area around the hotel. a block down the street was a Tourist Shop/Fish Spa. I was a little nervous but did go for the fish spa. I tickled so much I had to try not to think about it. You drop your feet into the water and the fish go to town swarming your feet.


 Half an hour later I was on my way to check out a place to eat. Guess what I found - Burger King. It was good!!!!!

After dining on my awesome burger, I hit the street to check out the night market. OMG, It goes along both sidewalks, into alley ways, and on into a large farmers market type area. I made a few purchases and then had the most wonderful foot massage - 1 hour $140 baht (about $4 US).


Tomorrow we visit the Elephant Conservation area - yes I'll be riding an elephant. We will also visit an orchard farm. Later
