Another early start for us today, it didn't help that we are in so much pain from our trek!! Our bodies ache all over - we knew we were unfit but not to this extent.
We got picked up and went to Doi Suthep which is a temple in the North that overlooks the whole of Chaing Mai. We had to walk up 306 steps to get to it (the last thing we needed after a 2 day trek)! Unfortunately we have chosen the wrong season for this experience as there are alot of forest fires so there is smog over the city. We could only make out a few places but was worth the drive up. We found out what day of the week we were born and which Buddha represents this. We went to see a real life monk who gave us a lucky bracelet and a splash of water to wish us good luck.
When we got back we treated ourselves to a foot massage - only because an American guy recommended this!! It has helped us feel a bit better.
Went out for a nice meal tonight. Came to a total of 170 Baht!!
Have our flight to Phuket tomorrow, we are going to try and get a tuk tuk to the airport!
