We had plenty of free time at Tacomepai and we spent some time doing fun things as a group. On Saturday a bunch of us went to a few close waterfalls. Not the most amazing waterfalls I've ever seen but a nice relaxing break.
It was also the first time I had ever ridden on the back of a motorbike and it was a bit frightening, especially when we started going 80 km/hr on the main road to Chiang Mai. I was starting to feel more confident until we left the second waterfall and lost the other two American girls. We waited for a while and finally sent someone back to check on them. They had crashed their motorbike and although they weren’t badly injured they did have many cuts and scrapes.
Last night I met up with the group again for Margaux’s birthday. We went to an Italian restaurant in town which surprisingly had decent food and then a reggae bar down the street. I was happy that there was such a great group of people at the farm. It made my stay very enjoyable.
Scary! Glad the girls weren't hurt. Who was driving your bike?
ReplyDeleteVery! Especially since I was nervous to ride it in the first place. Margaux seemed to handle the bike quite well even thought the road was sandy and there were huge pot holes everywhere.
