Place: Chiang Mai
Date: 16th August - 20th August
We started at 9.30am. This was when I met my group. It consisted of Laura and Javier and Spanish couple, Chris - A Scottish guy, 2 Korean guys, whose names I cannot spell, Demetri and Mikyoung - another couple. Our guide was called Wat.
It was one of the hardest up hill treks I've ever had to do but it was so worth my buckets of sweat! We finally arrived at our camp and the view was simply breath taking. Wat cooked us up a Thai feast and we drank beer whilst watching the sunset. Later, after eating and drinking more the moon rose and bought with it a lightning storm. We definitely had the best seats in the house.
Coming down the mountain the next day was just as strenuous but a gorgeous waterfall awaited us at the bottom, it was so refreshing! We definitely needed that the day before! We continued down the second half of the mountain to partake in some riding of elephants and white water rafting. Such an awesome, action packed day! I LOVED IT!
The rest of my time in Chiang Mai was pretty chilled out. I hired a bicycle and found my way around the town. I visited a few temples, but to be honest I was starting to feel a little templed out. That night I met up with Chris and partied the night away with Lady Boys! We turned up at some bar next to a boxing ring where the girls were blatantly boys. We played Connect 4 and Jenga quite happily with them until suddenly YMCA blared from the speakers. The 'ladies' equip with their massive fake boobies, broke out into a dance routine. The added bonus was their enormous breasts popping out of their clothes every 2 seconds. And they loved playing with them...I suppose any man would if they suddenly had boobs.
After that experience I decided to jump on a bus to Pai....possibly the best decision EVER.
