Chiang Mai, Thailand - Part 2 (w/video)!

First off, Chiang Mai was amazing, making it into the Top 5 places I have ever seen. Part one helped to convey the beauty of the country, so I'm hoping that part two exemplifies the kind of fun that can be had there. This trip-within-a-trip was magical, and most of what I remember of it comes from that weekend.

We started the day at elephant camp where we rode on elephants and trusted our lives on bamboo rafts. We followed up this aqueous undertaking by stopping by the Tiger Sanctuary where we got a chance to fawn over a plethora of tigers and play with a few of them as well. The next day we visited an umbrella factory and a wooden market where we once again made use of our bartering skills and purchased a multitude of Thai goods.

Needless to say, the return trip to Bangkok was bittersweet though my experience in Chaing Mai will forever remain close to my heart. Enjoy!
