The first day in Chiang Rai we went to see the Golden Triangle, where Burma, Laos and Thailand meet ...
At the Golden Triangle we watched a ceremony where Thai girls danced in the temple to thank Buddha for something he had done for them. As you can see, they are very nicely dressed ...
On our way to Laos on a boat ...
We had lunch on an island in Laos ...
Back in Thailand we visited different villages. This one is called Karen - where the women wear golden rings around their neck. Girls start wearing them at the age of 5 and they can never take them off. In the past, women wore them to protect themselves against tigers in the Jungle - it was supposed to blind the tiger.
We also saw a hill tribe called Big Ears ...
