At
the Night Bazaar...this is a really fun place to go, loads of amazing
things for sale and so cheap! |
 |
 |
We bought
some lights for the room for Christmas they are made out of cotton,
very ingenious!! |
This
was the setting for the Chiang Mai Mardi Gras, they really are into
festivals and celebration here, a great city to live in! |
 |
This is
a shot of the female singers at the Mardi gras, they were very good,
except the slight difference in the pronunciation of some of the
English!! BUT at least they speak more English than I do Thai! |

Vegetarian Indian Restaurant where we learned to cook!!YUM |
The view from the Indian
Restaurant where Vibodha was sitting. |

Views
from what we think was the Chinese Festival, we just ran into it
on our way back home one day! Fun eh??Hundreds of people were here
watching!! We really do live right by where all the celebrations
happen!! |
 |
 |
The
guys took turns in lifting the dragon and running frantically around
all over the place with it, they were cheering and yelling and singing!!
Of course there were many drums banging beside them too! |
 |
 |
| A typical scene for rickshaw
drivers, quite frequently you will catch them sleeping in them too! |
A little
girl playing away!! |

 |
Statues
and shots from some Spirit Houses, when they build on land they
also made a house for the spirits of the land to live in as they
have displaced them, good Karma I would imagine! |

Views
from the market nearby, everyday we pass people just moving around
with their wares, tinkling the bells on their carts, sitting on
the ground selling oranges etc at 50c a kilo!! Some people sell
things for 2baht, which is around 5cents....I know I wouldn't want
to sit around all day and night in the hope that someone was going
to buy from me, but that's what many people have to do to live and
eat! |

Picnic in the park!! The
Chiang Mai City Park is beautiful and it is on the South Moat.
A great place to relax, eat and sunbathe!!
I trust you enjoyed a
few more views of Chiang Mai, maybe you'll get here to sit this
all for yourself! Well worth the trip!
