Hey again! Firstly sorry if it takes me ages to reply to emails! Its really hectic so don't get much time!! Had the most amazing day ever today... Started pretty rubbish with a 17hour train journey up to Chiang Mai , but we eventually got to our hostel and had the chance to go elephant trekking! I sat up on the head which was scary but also so cool! Our guide was hilarious and we got soaked by our elephant. She also stopped to eat lots so kept moving up and down which was nerve racking! I will put pictures up when I get a chance. This evening we have been exploring the night market in Chiang Mai which is huge and so cheap! But you still end up bartering over 10 or 20 baht which is less than 20p. hee hee! Off into Laos tomorrow, got to get my visa first though! Missing you all, xxxx
