Chiang Mai

I don't want to leave you hanging...so now picture me sound asleep for a good portion of what ended up being a 14 hour bus trip to Huay Xai, apparently missing all kinds of drama like a guy being hit with a large air conditioner panel, a girl being doused with water from the same air conditioner, a special stop to deal with the situation, me still sound asleep (no surprise to Roni I'm sure), a successful arrival and overnight stay in Huay Xai, a very short trip across the Mekong to Chiang Khong and a 6 hour bus journey to Chiang Mai where I rest peacefully awaiting the arrival of Vania and Nate tomorrow.  You won't hear from me until sometime after they leave on the 27th.  So till then.  Peace out...Jan
