Trekked to our last tribal village, in which all 11 of us slept in a rickety hut with colourful mosquito nets.  There were lots of dirty children running around and if you want a shower, then think again - a bucket of manky water has to suffice!  They provided excellent food and hospitality though.

We awoke very early on Wednesday morning, as all the chickens in the village were making such a noise.  After a delicious breakfast of pancakes, we trekked our way back to civilisation, and a bus ride back to Chiang Rai, where we were lucky enough to go to another night market!
