Chiang Moi, Thailand, October 14.
Off to Chiang Moi, Thailand’s second largest city. This is a country in which 97% are Buddhist and, perhaps as a result, people are gentle and nonaggressive.
First we went to a silk factory and saw how silk was made, Then to a gem cutting place. We went to dinner and a show at the Cultural Centre which featured traditional Thai dancing. After dinner, I went to the Night Market, a long street with hundreds of retailers selling handicrafts and many other things.
