Chiang Mai and a West Africa Reunion!

I was up too early, but that was okay as I had a leisurely morning and got my trip for the weekend properly researched.

My real crowns were put in at 9 and so far they feel really good.  I have a final appointment Monday at 11:30 for a check of the crowns and a filling.  My dentist doesn’t seem to like to do too much at a time!

I decided I needed to try Pad Thai again so googled and found “the best place for Pad Thai” in Chiang Mai called Aroy Dee.  It was very strange eating since my meditation. I had to slow down, not to the zombie speed but to take my time and enjoy the flavours.  I found that very interesting and hope I can continue to try to eat slowly.  

The kitchen is in the front-


I guess I’m just not a lover of Pad Thai-


I also had vegetable spring rolls which were ok.  I’m not really into deep fried-

I went back to The Master at 1 p.m. to get my tattoo touched up and then spent the afternoon reading and drinking beer.  What a life!

At 6:30 I met Don and Terry at a restaurant called Another World-

Terry, as well as Norm and I worked together as a cook group.  I wish Norm was here too for a proper reunion!  We had a great visit!

Tomorrow I will try to see the monks asking for alms before I pick up my bike at 7:30.  I’m looking forward to seeing the countryside!

P.S.

Seems there are fights just about every night!
