February 21, 2013: After Tiger Kingdom, we were looking for more adventure.  A dune buggy experience caught our eye, so we hopped into these incredibly hot and snug orange jumpsuits and took off up the mountain and through a bamboo jungle! All was going well until we came across a makeshift bridge over a creek, and for some reason the middle plank was not there.   Jim caught a rock on the side, which popped us off slightly to the left, lodging our buggy on the bridge with the 2 wheels on my side hanging off. Whoops!  We got towed out by the guide and back on our way.  I was having flashbacks of Cabo :)


After grabbing some Red Bull and cleaning up from the dusty ride, we drove to Doi Suthep and Wat Phrathat Tempple, built in 1383.  The temple is on top of the 2nd tallest mountain in the area, with a great view back towards Chiang Mai!



After dinner, we headed to the tailor to get our first measurements for our suits.  $100 for a custom suit? Awesome! Got to pick the fabric, the style,  a pocket on the left side, small details for this lefty :)  What a great first day in Chiang Mai!
