recipe for disaster

Imagine a long winding road...now times that by a million! Now imagine this winding road going up and down mountains with straight cliff drops on either side! To top it off...picture the bumping, pot hole filled winding road! This was our 3 hour (normally 4/5) trip from Chaing Mai to Pai! Now add in a speed hungry driver who thinks its safe to overtake large trucks on a turn, slamming on brakes when he realizes he can't overtake before crashing head on to  the oncoming cars! It was as if he thought he was in a real life video game! FUN! (Not)
We arrived in Pai just in time! I don't think our stomachs could have held off much longer :s BUT we made it! And in one piece! :)
Pai is a little hippie heaven! Reminds us a bit of Guelph in Thailand! Organic food, vegetarian food, even VEGAN options! We have settled in a bamboo bungalow (on the river of course) This will be our new paradise! Don't expect updates anytime soon! Brain (and technology) have been officially turned off!:)
