Okay. First night in Chiang Mai. We met Danish friends on the bus from Sukhothai to Chaing Mai that the owner at J&J Guest House booked for us. We are lucky we got seats. The bus was packed and lots of people were standing.
It took us 6.5 hours to get to Chiang Mai instead of 5 because of too many stops and a very overloaded bus going slowly up mountains.
Upon arrival, the normal confusion ensued. We filled out some survey for some English-learning students, broke up our 1000 baht bill with water, and found a tuktuk driver after the first one tried to rip us off.
We then went for a lovely dinner with some new friends from Denmark.
Then some drinks.
Then we decided to go on a little pub crawl. Brad and I were singing along to some music, when our Danish friends decided they would like us to sing and we should go to karaoke.
We went to karaoke. I couldn't figure out what was so odd until our Danish friend told us we were getting scammed and needed to leave. Turns out karaoke means something very different in Thailand........... There's probably some pictures of me smiling with a Thai hooker somewhere on the interwebs before I had any idea we had accidentally hired one!!!
Wtf. On that note... Goodnight crazy place.
