The view from our accommodation at the Black Lahu village
Hey everybody,

It's time for another update. I've just arrived back in Chiang Mai after brilliant 3 day hike through the surrounding Jungle. I got to ride an Elephant, go white water rafting, swim in the pool of 3 waterfalls, trek through some beautiful scenery and stay overnight with the Black Lahu, one of the local tribes in the area. Unfortunately I couldn't get any photos of the elephant riding to show everyone as because they didn't have enough Elephants I was sat on the neck rather then in the basket so I was clinging on for dear live the whole time couldn't get my camera out. I'll upload what I can now and once the rest of the Trekking group have emailed me theirs I'll add those too.

One of the millions of semi wild dogs that seem to live on the streets of Thailand. Very cute but completely crawling with fleas.

The Black Lahu?
That's sounds racist.
