Sorry for not writing in a few days. I was getting kind of burned out tracking down the internet cafes and missing out on the good times and adventure. For the past 4 days I have been in Chiang Mai, Thailand, which is considered the northern capital ... Read more >

Met up with John from Portland at 3pm. We rented some bikes and went to see the elephant kraal (a thing they used to use to catch elephents in the "olden" days). Biking on the streets of Ayuthaya (or probably any town in Thailand for that ... Read more >
