Night Bazaars Jungle Canopies
Last night I went out and came across a HUGE market. Supposedly it was the famous Chiang Mai Weekend night bazaar, there were at least two miles of booths/stands selling all sorts of unique items. There was a stand for eatable bugs, paintings, nicknack's, and much more. I am REALLY low on funds so I only bought one thing all night; it was a hand drawn self portrait. I liked it quiet a bit and it was ridiculously cheap. I had so much fun weaving in and around hordes of people haggling loudly in the street. The air seemed electric with excitement over all of the new and wondrous things from all over the country. I walked for 5 hours and still did not see all of the bazaar.
This morning was a rough wake up. My legs ached a bit from walking all night. We were picked up at our place and driven to the Flight of the Jungle site. It was a very long, and very windy road which had we gone much further I would have lost my breakfast. The canopy course was incredible. I hope the videos come out. The course had 34 platforms 22 ziplines, and 4 drops. The longest zip was 300m and nearly 150m high. It was a thrill. They scariest part was the 40m straight down drop they let us free fall for most of it. It was awesome. Great day!
