We wanted to eat traditional Northern Thai food so Lasana at our hotel recommended this place, Huen Phen.  She said it was the best Northern Thai food restaurant in the area.  The decor was so fun & the food was great, however I must say I like 'normal' Thai food better.

We went to Chiang Mai's Original Monkey School....

I wanted to bring this little guy home with me!
Picture
Girl was a little afraid of him, he was so squirmy!
Picture
Two of my little monkeys!
Picture
Hubby drinking coffee from the coffee beans growing on the trees beside him.
Picture
It was so fun seeing poinsettias growing in the wild at Christmas time!

Nice!
I have never seen as many in one place as I saw in Chiang Mai!  Everywhere we went there were monks.  Seeing them around made us very curious, so when we saw the 'Monk Chat' program we decided to stop in and have a chat. 
Picture
The monk we chatted with was very shy and not very confident in his English, although he spoke much better than I would expect him to.  He answered all of our questions and ask a few questions of us.

If you look in the background you will see a tiger on the log. We had dinner at this place. The kids wanted to go in with the tigers, but again, I had to draw the line & say no!
Picture
I did let them hold a snake though.
Picture
The kids got to have ice cream whenever Hubby and I drank a beer.
Picture
Banana pancakes! Oh baby some of my favorite street food in Thailand!
Picture
At the night safari!
MIL, this picture is for you.  On our last morning in Chiang Mai Hubby and I woke up early & went to Starbucks to buy a coffee mug for you.   Here I am in front of the Starbucks with our tuk-tuk and driver.

How fun, monkeys, elephants, snakes (can't believe you let him hold a snake!), and SB too!! So I assume that the kids had lots of ice cream??

    Proud Army wife and mother to 4 wonderful children.  I love to cook, travel, work out and scrapbook life’s adventures when I find the time.  We just got orders & are heading back to the states in March 2010.  I'm bummed that our time has been cut short, but proud of Hubby for the reason why.
