Chiang Mai

Currently in Chiang Mai. I took the train last night which was part amazing part hell. The good part is for the few hours that the sun was out I got to sit of the enterance steps to the car and watch the sun set. The bad part was once it got dark it got cold. When I decided to go back to my seat an elderly lady was sitting in it. She was sitting on the other side of the train with I think her daughter. So I told her she could sleep there and I would go to the empty car ahead of us. A few people were up there including a monk who curled into a ball and completely covered himself with his rope. Also along the ride we passed Lop Buri which is famous for the monkeys that live at the temples. We happenned to pass one and I saw all kinda of monkeys fat,skinny,old,babies etc. Also while waiting for the train yesterday I walked across the street to have my first random chicken meat on a skewer. It was amazing. They put some kinda sauce on it that makes to look buffalo chicken but its actually really tame with a small bit of sweet. Before leaving Ayutthaya I also had a club sandwich as an experiment that i'll have to tell you about later. I got to Chiang Mai at 6:30am and woke up at noon so I dont think I'm going to do to much today. On the walk to the internet cafe I passed a place called Thaitanic. Im starving so I'll probably head there. Hope all is well back home.
