Even Uncle Bruce came along! (Mom's fictional brother for the evening)
|
We really did hate Phil. He was a boring, annoying, sexist man.
|
Damn, Swedish girls. Strong, warrior birthing genes.
|
Uncle Bruce and his hot ride. Hi five to my relative for a day!
|
Anders - careful, she'd tear you apart!
|
Camera's 'party mode' in full effect!
|
The classic face flower angle.

Flowers for the ladies on Valentines Day!

DENGUE FEVER! You have nothing on Ninja's Mosquito-Air-Grab!
|
An Ode to Chiang Rai's Teepee Bar's Toilet. Damp.
|
OK, I laughed for many minutes. Who calls their water "Yellow Surprise"?
|
The beginning of the Northern Scooter Loop!
|
My hot ride, fresh helmet and Thailand guid book! Ho!
|
Oddly enough, upon exploration they were not huts, just solid bails of hay.
|
125cc's between you legs - quasi-macho. It WAS manual transmission though. Stud.
|
River view from my first destination - Tha Ton!
|
My hut. Just kidding - I was big pimping down the road.
|
A local hill exploration...
|
...revealed some odd tombs...
|
...and a path to the town's temple.
|
Big Red, don't get jealous of Black Bullet. It's a totally different relationship.
|
It's always fun to fin strange paths...
|
...that lead you back to the right path. (In general)
|
Finally time to chill and finish reading "Freakonomics" - GREAT BOOK!
|
My balcony in the am. I was sick and I couldn't sleep...
|
...so took some sexy pictures,
|
My room was literally 'on the river'.
|
The road to Mae Salong was one awesome ride!
|
Always a reassuring sign...
|
You see a mountain hut - I see someone's future office :)
|
One of many 'chill huts' - free for you to relax in.
|
Anyone for 'Black Chicken'? Strangely delicious. (Emphasis on 'strange')
|
From river view to mountin view balcony. God bless Thailand.
|
Oh I think I have this under control...
|
...one of the many store front homes...
|
...oh shit, I think I still have it under control.
|
The morning market - no sign of the 'team'.
|
So a solo mission to the peak is in order...
|
The sun begins to rise above the norther thai mountains...
|
...the local Nagas witness yet another sunrise.
|
The gold begins to shimmer in the early light.
