We have had another quiet day today as Ethan is still not 100%.....Greg & Dan went to the computer mall and came back with a new mouse as we think we left the other one in Chiang Mai.....
Greg and I just popped out to go to the fashion mall and the markets and the boys stayed here, Greg is off out again to a shopping centre a few blocks away......
We just crossed the road like locals, there are pedestrian crossings everywhere but unless you are game enough to walk out in front of the cars then you will wait all day to cross as there are no breaks in the traffic and they won't stop to let you cross....so we took the gamble and walked out and just like magic they all stopped...it's really weird how they all push their way into non existent lanes but they don't seem to crash....they are also really patient and just let people merge.......
Dan said we had a bit of blue sky this afternoon but I missed it, I think that he had blue glasses on as it's not possible.......
We went to the chemist to pick up some ibuprofen, oh my you can buy anything and you don't need a script, anything from antibiotics to anti-depressants, everything really the only thing you can't get is codeine you can only get that in hospital....
I also read that the dogs in Chiang Mai and Bangkok are dingo's and that they are half Indian wolf & half dog they are called "Mah Pah" in Thai and that translates to Jungle dog don't know if that is right but they really look like our dingo's....there are a lot of them with jackets and collars on but they just seem to wander all over the place....when we were at the markets there was a rescue group with some puppies in a cage we gave some money to them as they must have a massive task with the amount of dogs roaming around.....
