Our Jungle Trek in Doi Inthanon Park, West of Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand
Day One
We started with a 2.5 hour drive from Chiang Mai,
the largest city in northern Thailand, to a quite
untouristed trail.  A flat 2 hour hike brought us to
the Meo (Hmong) tribal village, a tribe that
originated in Southern China but settled in Thailand
over 200 years ago. 

We trekked with six other people:  an american
mother and daughter, a couple of Danish girls and a
British husband and wife.  A great bunch.
This woman and her daughter didn't speak English
but they welcomed us at the village and sold us tribal
handicrafts.  She is 48 years old, and the little girl is 7.
The day closed with a whisky soaked Thai drinking
game.  Bing bong bang game? Yeahhh...
Our accomodations: a bamboo
hut in the village.
