Doi Suthep

Hello! I know it's been a while since we've posted anything. We haven't really taken any trips recently, but we did visit Chiang Mai's most well known temple. Sarah's friend was visitng for a few days and we took a taxi up the mountain to visit Doi Suthep, which overlooks the city. Chiang Mai is actually in a sort of valley. It's flat, but all around the city are mountains in every direction.

Here are some photos from the temple on the mountain.













Just five weeks until Sarah and I are back in the USA! We can't wait, it's going to be awesome.

I've been reading your blog today and have enjoyed it a lot. My girlfriend and I have been in Thailand for a few months, mostly in Chiang Mai, and have been looking for blogs of people doing similar things. We don't want to miss out on anything while we're hear, as our time is winding down also before we head to India.

Glad you guys got a clear view of the city from Doi Suthep. The two times we've gone this trip, clouds have rolled in by the time we got to the top.

I've been keeping a travel blog of my own. The recent posts are from Chiang Mai. I'm trying to do a decent job of taking photos and finding unusual things in the city.
