After spending the day at The Grand Canyon, we went to the Sunday Night Market-- a huge market that spans the downtown area of Chiang Mai on Sunday nights. We ate there- I had chicken skewers and a passion fruit and banana shake for dinner. It was phenomenal. As we walked we came across a vendor from Chiang Mai University selling homemade wine for 35B (about $1!) I tried strawberry wine which tasted like fruit juice. After our wine we went to the bathroom and I experienced a Thailand first--- before entering the bathroom I had to take my shoes off and replace them with a pair of communal bathroom shoes. While in the bathroom I did some light reading (what else does one do in the bathroom?) and realized why the need for english teachers in SE Asia is so high. See the pictures below for a good laugh, and please, if you have any idea as to what the thai people are trying to tell me to do and not do in the bathroom, let me know!
Haha. You now have a mini mission for you trip. Redo all bathroom signage. Good luck with that.
