Even though Dave wanted to get right to
shopping, Susan laid down the law that first evening: we were going to
eat, darn it, and then put the kids to bed! At least we have a chance to
pose in front of the big Christmas tree set up in the market.
As our days in Chiang Mai went by, we spent nearly every evening at some point in and around the night market. We saw all sorts of fantastic things being sold, ranging from the truly cool and practical (like various lamp covers) to the bizarrely weird and creepy (like entire displays of nothing bu preserved bugs, spiders, and bats). |

There were other evening markets that took place on the weekends, when the crowds ranged off into the distance from our viewpoint atop the city walls.
|
The lights and the colors were incredible, especially under the lights of the stalls. 
Because of the "camera issues" we experienced, the evening hours were the only opportunity we had to take pictures that captured the beauty of the temples which rise from seemingly every corner in the town.
