On top of the world!
On the road to Doi Mae Salong.
The ride up here was absolutely surreal. We stopped in Doi Mae Salong, a tiny Chinese village set on top on mountains. These were mostly refugees forced out by the Maoists in the 1940's and have managed to preserve their culture in a tiny place in northern Thailand. It was beautiful.
We made it to Chiang Mai at about 8pm. My friends insisted that we had to eat at this famous burger joint - Mike's. I went along, despite being vegetarian. I ordered dii chan kin jeh - a meatless buger because I'm vegetarian, but they seemed shocked nonetheless. They even had signs on the walls about eating vegetarians.
