So when we first hopped off our plane from paradise
we weren’t sure what to expect in Chiang Mai. After hours of
walking around the city (not the centre which could easily be confused
with the 'central' plaza as we soon found out when misscomunication
caused the taxi driver to take us in the completely wrong direction)
we soon found out that Thai massages were a popular tradition.
First thought was that a two hour massage would be a relaxing and
enjoyable experience, we couldn’t have been more wrong.
These women were determined to give our bodies a full pounding
(especially Erin, who had an elbow thrusted into her groin repeatedly)
(she's yet to recover from the experience)
After that scarring ordeal, we stumbled across what we thought was god's
gift, the bakery. Each donut, garlic bread, and pastry were
like little droplets of heaven and I don't think we've ever been
as happy as we were the day we found Yamakazi.
When you think of Thailand the thought of
ladyboys at some point will come to mind.
First thought is that it's just a man dressed as a woman,
(which technically it is) but damn these men look INCREDIBLE,
to the degree that we (actual women) look more manly
than the majority of them. When we made the decision to
watch the ladyboys in cabaret we weren't quite sure
what we were signing ourselves up for.
I think we can all agree it was an experience like no other
(after much deliberation the mystery of where they hide the
penis is yet to be solved...)
Finally we were lucky enough to feed and play with the most
beautiful baby tigers. We weren’t entirely sure what to expect
from these animals as they are well known
for their ferocity, however, the best way to describe them
is like playful kittens.
(who, similar to most cats like to spend their day asleep)
We've had an amazing time exploring this beautiful country,
3 words to sum up this trip would be:
1.Rice
2.7eleven
3.Temples
Next stop: Australia
lots of love,
Megan, Robyn and Erin
