Hi Everyone,
You take a step back and then two forward . . .
I dug through my backup hard drive to find some shots from the three day/two night trek I took in July north of Chiang Mai, Thailand.
We were a group of twelve from all over the world: Spain, Denmark, Taiwan, France, and the U.S.
Enjoy!
Taken in the hangout area at the first of the two “homestays.” |
The john. |
Flushing system. |
We 12 shared this large room. |
It turned rainy. |
! ! ! |
Stopped for a chat. |
With this wonderful weaver. |
And her friend. |
Stopped by a school. |
And a village. |
Walked through rice paddies. |
Swam in mountain pools. |
Drank Chang and listened to the local musician (singular). |
Breakfast. |
I bought a few things from her. |
Part of what we saw along the way. |
The gang. |
The 3 fun Spaniards. |
Rode on an elephant; it wasn’t nearly as nice as in Laos. This guy was hungry! And they wouldn’t let him eat. |
The last part of the trip was floating downstream on a bamboo raft; this group had WAY more fun than my group! We were much too calm and tranquil. : ) |
Off to a yoga retreat for my last 2-nights in Thailand and SE Asia.
Aloha,

Hey, about the picture with 12 in a room: Did you sleep on the floor and then put those nets over you to protect from flying insects? Or were those net things like hammocks? Just wondering….
