Farewell to Chiang Mai

Our last days in Chiang Mai were fun but we were sad to leave. We went to the Tiger Kingdom where we got to play with baby lions (in their cage) and tigers (next to their cage). One of the baby tigers really took a liking to Dan and tried to purr and lick our faces through their bars. We took a boat dinner cruise on the Ping River. The kids found it a little boring, but Dan and Kim thought it was very romantic. We had dinner one night at Antique House, set in a 100-year old fabulous wooden house made in the traditional Thai style. Max was served both his dinner and his dessert in a pineapple there. We made our last trips to the zoo again, to Smoothie Blues for more mango waffles, to the vegetarian restaurant for black sticky rice with coconut milk, to the Warm Up bar for some Leo beers. The students suffered through my two exams and started pairing up romantically as the week concluded. So long Chiang Mai, see you next time!
