only hours ago we crossed the mekong river into laos but just wanted to share with you our favorite part of chiang mai - the Warorot Market - a couple old multi-level warehouses and tiny shops packed everywhere into little nooks and crannies to the east of the town center. We literally spent days there just getting lost among knick knacks and crazy food stalls.
enjoy
thai snausages
hungry for mealy bug snack?
or maybe something better aged.
stuff stuff everywhere....
more food
and endless things to fill up your house
found out they chew betel nut and fermented tea leaves in Thailand
no insects in this meal - but the best curry we've had so far
dried cuttlefish and sardines
and when you think you've had enough? recharge with Thai iced tea (in a bag)
or maybe just knock out in the corner.
one last thing - not from the local market but by far the most interesting thing we saw at the touristic night bazaar. this woman there invented all these insect creations, woven, painted and glued by hand using palm leaves.
