Ticklish Feet

Chiang Mai night markets were fun. I love markets, they are one of my favorite parts of visiting countries because they reveal so much about culture. It's funny because i hate most U.S. markets (which we don't really have any more thanks to WalMart, Target and big box stores). The Thai night markets have way more stuff than you could buy at any supercenter. Spices, fruits, handcrafts, games, music, movies, massages, chopsticks, lamps, clothing, and so much more. Lots of colors, smells and lights. Such a wonderful place.

Our second night we stopped and got foot massages. I should have known that it wasn't the best idea because my feet are by far the most ticklish part of my body, but after the initial squirming and giggles, my body relaxed and I really enjoyed it and was able to relax greatly for an hour, all for $3.50. I picked up some wonderful spices, paper lamps, tapestry wall hangings, chopsticks, football jerseys, and more. Ajun (Pastor) Weena is so much fun to be with and her son's name is Pete also, so I was in good graces. She loves to shop and bargain and saved me lots and lots of money. I had such a good time and ended the day with fresh fruit shakes and mango sticky rice. Thailand is definitely a country of elephants, mangoes, great people, amazing food and so much more!
