We had our first overnight sleeper train, their well posh compared to India. No fighting over space with the cock roaches etc. Got to Chiang Mai and are stopping in the Eagle house 2 which is ok, bathroom is good, the rest ok. Booked onto a cooking course for two days at the chiang mai thai cooking school(sat and sun) We have spent today looking at the temples we hired some push bikes, it was good fun, although it was a bit hairy when we went to the train station in rush hour. The bikes werent the best bikes (no street cred) felt like butch and sundance riding round the field (except for we werent in a field and we werent in america and we had a bike each and there was a third person involved, like lucky piere) Any way we are on a visa run tomorrow to Mae sai which will be exciting .........not
