becoming jami: Chiang Mai - Sunday Night Market

We were greeted in Chiang Mai by one of the owners of Mai Siam, the small resort we stayed at the entirety of our stay, and her British friend. They drove us in their car to where we were staying. It ended up being about a half hour away from the city center of Chiang Mai but we loved seeing the beautiful scenery every day on our ride into town.
Once we settled in to our bungalow the staff made us a really tasty dinner and then we showered and headed to the Sunday Night Market, a very popular attraction in the town that only takes place, obviously, on Sunday nights. They shut down some of the roads and there are tons and tons of vendors selling jewelry, lanterns, clothes, paintings, etc! There was also a food square with so many Thai foods!
I got some type of burrito looking thing (i forget the Thai word) and a fried banana with chocolate... oh man. amazing!
I bought a great bracelet, earrings, a dress and a lantern.
It was a great introduction to Chiang Mai and we were so excited for the next day where we would head to ... the elephant camp :)
