We had a 5 hour bus ride from Chiang Mai to Sukhotai on Thursday morning, thankfully less painful than the one a few days earlier.
On arrival in Sukhotai we checked in to our guest house and set out to explore…
The three hour bus journey from Chaing Rai to Chiang Mai was pretty horrendous, lots of windy roads and an unpleasant smell coming from the air con… but worth it!
We arrived at about lunchtime on Monday and headed into town to find somewhere to stay. After trying a couple of places we ended up at a lovely little place in the old town called Siri Guest House. Spent the rest of the day orientating ourselves and eating… had falafels for dinner at a fantastic place called Jerusalem Cafe.
We’re now into our second day in Chiang Mai so I thought I’d write a little update about our last stop, Chaing Rai, the capital city of Thailand’s northernmost province of the same name, and our first stop away from the relaxing beach life we’ve been getting used to over the past couple of weeks. Well, it had to come to an end at some point, although Alexandra probably would’ve extended it for about another 50 weeks if she could.
So, Chiang Rai…
