ARGH!!

I really don't like spiders, terrifying creatures as far as I can tell. This one was near a small temple, on the top of a very steep hill that we climbed after a cycle ride. Luckily it was behind a fence so it didn't feel like it was going to kill me as much as if it was closer.

Lovely cycling tour through rice paddies, the town (Mae Sariang) and then to the local market. Saw lots of different creatures alive waiting to be grilled.

New food (all at the market): Chiang Mai sausage, Sticky banana and black bean rice served in a leaf, mangosteen.
