Arrival at Chiang Mai, Thailand

I arrived at Chiang Mai, Thailand at 9pm local time(9am EST). The city is much cooler than Bangkok. It was around 70F. Lots of motorbikes and lots of night markets. In many ways it has the best of Bangkok (markets, some chaos and temples) without some of the bad parts of Bangkok. However, there still are way too many obnoxious tourists(mostly Aussie sorry to say). I am staying at the 3 Sis Bed and Breakfast and I have a semi-unobstructed view of Wat Chedi Luang. Because my bags is still missing and I have no toothpaste, shaving cream and etc I went straight out shopping even though I could use some sleep. Luckily I almost forgot about the Sunday Night Market so I stayed out until 11:30pm checking it out. Lots of interesting items and my personal favorite Thai street food vendors. I had an interesting mango chicken dish and some strange but interesting tasting broiled egg dish with shrimp. I decided to skip the fried insect stand. Time for me to go to bed. I have been up for 50 hours.(I stayed up the night before I left Buffalo) Below are a few pics from the airport and my quick night tour.
