Pictures of Pai




Some kids from one of the villages where we stopped on our trek for some lunch.








Dinner during our trek.











The acommadation during our trek, we stayed in the right half while the people who owned the house stayed in the left half.







Placing my floating banana leave candle (it may be called a kratong but I'm not sure) in the river and making a wish.









Some of the colourful dancers in the parade for Loi Kratong.











One of the beauty contestants in the parade on the second night of Loi Kratong. There were several floats similar to this one with beauty contestants on them and each float had a very large speaker system blaring out Thai music.












Relaxing in the hot springs during a break on the rafting trip.











A typical view of the river without any rapids. The second raft is floating down the river in the background.
















Our rafting guides cooking dinner at the overnight camp.
