The entire lot is covered with pottery shards… What are these jars for? Where do they go? Will they be used for something, or stay here forever to be found by archaeologists who will be convinced that Chiang Mai was a center of pottery?
Good morning sink is disgruntled
Today’s morning excursion is to Doi Suthep. See you at the top!

When in Chiang Mai, do as the Chiang Maianese (do).
Lavender Lanna Hotel (formerly the Tokyo Sri Hotel), Chiang Mai
We are in, according to one internet review, the “premeire (sic) gay hotel of Asia.” First impressions: Very nice and clean.
Beer gardenesque @ Lavender Sky Bar, Chiang Mai
Feels like Nara or Kyoto. Cool breeze, too.
About 3 hours to Chiang Mai

Everybody warned us about the long, windy mountain roads on the way to Chiang Mai, but they aren’t bad at all. I guess it’s because there isn’t a hill in sight standing on the tallest building in Maha Sarakham (my uni’s admin building). I’m moblogging this and eating with Mina right now, and we are in the windiest roads of the whole trip.
The scenery in these mountains looks a lot like Japan, except for the abundant banana trees. I’d rather be sliding around these corners in my old Silvia with speakers blaring ADF instead of bouncing around in a university van, but then again, who wouldn’t?
BTW, Max and Mina are being veritable angels so far.
Merry
Told you once I won’t tell you again it’s a bad way…
