tuesday, march 27th
bangkok is wonderful and surprising. the places are interesting. we visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! later today we will leave for chiang mai. we will take the train north, stay in chiang mai for two days, and then catch a bus to chiang rai.
friday, march 30th
our trip to chiang rai was long and boring. we visited a small village in the mountains. the village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. they are the kindest people i have ever met. they always smile and say “hello”. kathy and i can only speak a few words of thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. i feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.
