Burma










Yesterday I had the chance to cross the river (border) and go to Burma. The occasion was the Karen New Year, hence the dancing and festivities. What I had always imagined Thailand/Burma would be like!

Lan Sang National Park












I spent last weekend out of Mae Sot again, this time at Lan Sang National Park. A group of us went camping. Get this... for the equivalent of $3.00 you get a tent, blanket, and pillow... not only that, they set up everything for you. The pics above show from the top down: a market we stopped at on the way, camping, celebrating the King of Thailand's 82nd birthday, and a hike we did. Thailand continues to blow me away.
