cat's journey!
after leaving Bangkok we headed to Chang Mai...was supposed to be going by overnight train, but unfortunately got cancelled due to a landslide the previous day. We had the option of a 12hour bus ride or a 1hour flight...naturally we chose the flight!! Having taken the flight we now had a whole day in Chang Mai before our trekking started. A few of us went to a Thai Cooking school in the morning which was a good laugh...can't say i really liked anything I cooked though apart from the spring rolls...i won't be auditioning for ready steady cook....!
In the afternoon we had a few hours to visit the Wat Phrathat temple up in the hills. The views over chang mai were fab, as was the temple of course!! We were supposed to meet up with the tour guide around 5.30 but was a little late, as the taxi or truck we were in was in a little crash...they drive like maniacs over here!! Everyone was ok though, it was only a little bump...we ended up walking the rest of the way whilst the drivers swapped details!! when we eventually got back we hired out our trekking gear for the next 3days then headed round the night market. There is so much i could buy here, and it's hard trying to be good, but already i don't think i could carry anymore!!
