Day 1009 – Chiang Mai, Thailand

Day 1009 – 12th March 2008 +7:00 GMT

After breakfast Jill and I walked down the road and handed in our laundry to a lady who agreed to wash and dry everything for 200 baht (around £3.30). We then haggled and got a tuk tuk to take us to the bus station so we could buy a ticket for tomorrow to Chiang Kong, the ticket was 284 baht. We then got the tuk tuk to take us to Chaimongkon Wat (which is a temple) and we had a look around and took some photos.

We then got a cruise down the River Ping the cruise lasted and hour and was a pleasant trip but since the guide did not speak English we did not know what anything was.

When then walked back to the hotel via Hagn-Dazs and treated ourselves to an ice cream extravaganza and then I uploaded blog photos for the last few days and had a little rest. In the evening we walked to the riverside restaurant and had a fantastic meal, then we walked back through the city looking at the night market stalls on route.
