back in Chiang Mai

at the night market again
an amazing amount of colour and variety
Food and crafts. How about this big blob of jelly made
of some Chinese herb
wood crafts - done to perfection
funny painted nik naks
Have a dog wash for 60 cents or turn 
heads around with this cool hill tribe gear
 Candle holders with carvings of the negative
image - like lighting up the emptiness
'Form is emptiness
Emptiness is form'
Bodhi leaves with Ganesh 
Have your hat woven on the spot out of coconut leaves
Embroidered baby shoes - for $3 - exquisite!
Amuletes encased in what looks like drift wood or old fence posts
Which sandals go the furthest?
Mime with live music
a dancing swirl
buddha watches the dealings and whealings going on
and young monks get donations for the temple
