Got my things packed and ready to go this morning, so I could head over to the proper hotel and meet the next group in the tour.

Eventually it did and we headed off for food. After breakfast, we got ready and ...

Only three of us decided to do the thai cooking class in Chiang Mai at 9 am. We got picked up from our hotel and we got to select what we were going to make that morning for the class on the way to the market.
