Trains, Tuk Tuks & Chaing Rai

The 14 hour train ride to Chaing Mai turned into 15 hours 15 min. As the train was late. We decided on the train to go up to either Chaing Rai or Pai, which ever bus left first. The bus to Pai left at 2 we got to the bus station at 205, if the bus was on time we would have made Pai but i guess it wasn't meant to be. So we walked over to the other teller for Chaing Rai tickets and the bus was leaving at 215. we had enough time to pick up some water and hope on the bus before it departed. We are deciding if we go see Pai after Chaing Rai but we are thinking maybe not as all the travelling isn't that much fun and we might be missing out on sometime amazing here in Chaing Rai.

Tommorrow we are off to do some trekking in the Chaing Rai, we will be taking a jeep and travelling to hot springs, elephant ride, visiting 4 different tribes, sleeping in the Karen tribe overnight and next day going to another Tribe and waterfall. I'm charging the camera as we speak, think i missed out on some pics.

THe guest house we are staying

Love ya all.

I am so excited for you. I can't wait to hear about the elephant ride. The only elephant ride I have ever had was at the coin operated elephant at the grocery store. Ha ha. Take care and be safe.
