Walking down one street in Chiang Mai i passed a bike shop. The white scooter is really cool - not sure if it does well on the way to Pai. Would love to have the green and black one to do it :-)
I am still in Bangkok - to many friends coming in all the time. Last night i did meet Monika and Alex on their way back to Dali. They did stop a day in BKK as their plane from Munich did land here. Tomorrow Weekend Market and than dinner at Taileks house. Hope to get a ticket for the Monday night bus to Chiang Mai as well - looking forward to a few quite days in Pai. Lets see if that works out :-)
Num and Weo will drive to CHX at the 25th - Chris and me will share the ride. Than something like 2 nights CHX. Up to Chiang Rai next - see the White Temple. Than Mae Salong to see why "the lost army" - Kuomintang's 93rd division who fought under General Chiang Kai Shek's Army - stopped here and founded the town. Further on towards the Laotian border and down to Luang Prabang with the Slow Boat next.
