Chiang Mai, Thailand

Krista and I enjoyed our days in Chiang Mai. The people were friendly, the food phenomenal, and each day presented new adventures. Many of our side trips are written about below but in-between we enjoyed this old town surrounded by a moat. From temples to monks to markets, there was plenty to keep us busy. Here are a few photos as we kicked around town.

What to do/not to do while in a temple: pants (not capris or some other outfit that shows leg) must be worn, no displays of affection, and no climbing on the statues

On Saturday and Sunday nights, different roads in Chiang Mai are shut down and turned into a market. These were the most fun market experiences we had in Thailand. From standard tourist wares to local crafts and lots of street food there was plenty to enjoy.
