Chiang Mai – Day 1, 12th November 2010

 

It was a busy week, clearing outstanding work, so much so that I only flew back from Penang the night before and reached home well after 10pm. After some packing and chatting with friends, it’s well pass 1am so I decided skip sleeping since it’s a very early morning flight

With Air Asia of course.

After checking into our rooms, we explored the surrounding streets.

Wat Phan On – there’s a nice area with tables and seats and nice shades. We had our morning tea (or lemonade) here and was really impressed with the cool and serene place.

First glimpse of the old city wall, on our way to some shopping.

A cool respite in Wawee Cafe in town. The sun is hot but it’s rather cool in the shade. However, nothing beats a good ice blended juice in an air conditioned cafe :)

Eating like the locals for our first dinner in town.

Then it’s to the Night Safari after that. Show started with a laser light show. Nice but nothing to shout about.

Overall the safari is a nice distraction if you have no other plans.
