This is the first day of our trip to Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand. It began as all great travels do, which is extremely early in the morning. In this case, 430am in sleepy Bangkok. From there we went to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep (วัดพระธาตุดอยสุเทพ), treated ourselves to a dinner show and bargained furiously at the infamous Walking Market, otherwise known as the Night Bazaar (ไนท์บาซาร์). We ended the adventure in the only appropriate way possible, which was by hailing a Songthaew (สองแถว) and riding back to our hotel in the back of a truck.
