Chiang Saen, Thailand. 23-24 January 2015
Golden Buddha of Chiang Saen
Strap myself in for a bumpy ride! I am in Thailand, land of happy fat Buddhas, slow swaying elephant rides, and speedy drivers who totally trust in Buddha that the guy they are tailgating will not make a sudden stop or change lanes as he passes on a sharp uphill curve.

Obviously laws on using walkie talkies or a cell phone while driving have not reached Thailand.
