Today we spent the day outside of Chiang Mai visiting hilltribes, riding elephants, hiking, and bamboo rafting down the river. It was an exhausting day, but very fun. It was weird to go visit the hilltribes for sure. It was almost like a human zoo and it was a little uncomfortable to intrude on their space. They were happy to sell their crafts to outsiders though, so buying something made us feel a little better. Still, I'm not sure I would do it again. We didn't let it stop us from photographing this fascinating wildlife, however..... The elephants were fun, but they spent most of the time scratching themselves on trees and eating. The rafting was by far the best part of the day, but we don't have any pictures as we got soaked continuously and had to leave the camera behind.
