We are making the most of our last couple of days in Chiang Mai before we head to Chiang Rai on Thursday.<\/p>\n

We’ve taken advantage of the excellent value for massages here. Our favorite place is no-frills Fah Lanna near the night market. Larry is standing at the entrance feeling refreshed after our 2-hour treatment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For 450 Baht ($14.27 US) we enjoyed a 1 hour Traditional Thai Massage and a 1 hour Reflexology Foot Massage! A treat!<\/p>\n

Today was our last yoga class at Freedom Yoga. We highly recommend this studio for excellent instructors and challenging classes. Larry is outside the studio enjoying a post-yoga banana.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Just down the road from our hotel is a fun-to-explore paper-making studio. The young woman who works there is adorable and proud of her paper.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Friday, February 16 is the beginning of Chinese New Year. This street in the Chinatown section of Chiang Mai has already started decorating with Chinese lanterns.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Colorful carrots for sale at the street-side market today!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Another example of local street art. This somewhat creepy character is lurking behind the bushes. Well done though!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As much as we love the Thai food, sometimes we’re happy to find a sandwich and French Fries on the menu. We had a nice lunch at the Hinlay Curry House nearby.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tomorrow we’ll try Thai cooking! We hope to learn some new menu ideas!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
