Chiang Mai

So today is my second day in Chang Mai. It was a 3 1/2 bus ride south from Chiang Rai. This city is huge. Its got over a million people here and is the second largest city in Thailand. I like my room a lot more than the last one i stayed in when in Chaig Rai. The one back there was musty and mildewy which was making me have a runny nose and be sick. Here my room is super clean and i slept so well last night. I met a cool man about my age back in Chiang Rai that I wish i could have spent more time with. He was so cool and ended up being from Hawaii. Way sweet!! May my Lord Jesus Christ bless that man and continue to show himself to him. Here in Chiang Mai the city is bigger like i was saying earlier. We even have a starbucks coffee house right next to our hostel. Last night I went to a night market and saw a elephant on the sidewalk. I could have touched it. It was so cool seeing one that wasn’t behind glass or bars. Way sweet. I really have been enjoying meeting different backpackers and sharing the Love of Jesus Christ. That has been so amazing. Right now i’m at an internet cafe on one of the main strips of town. Its pretty cool. The food here has been great. I’ve seen as far as travelers go are a majority of retired couples and single college age backpackers. My heart goes out to backpackers because they are on a journey, a quest to find themselves. I want to show them Jesus while they are on this search. Most backpackers i’ve talked to have been pretty open in conversation as well as talking about spiritual things. Jesus is the key. I appreciate the prayers from all my family and friends along with family friends. I thank all of you. Jesus Christ is never changing and is here in this country. May I lift his name higher.
