UPDATE: Dateline - Chiang Mai
I went out with my camera this morning, daring to brave the marauding hordes. All seven of them. The only way there will be bloodshed in Chiang Mai will be if one of the seven (7) soldiers I could find drops his cell phone on his toe...
I rode all over town, hitting all the major gathering points. I saw three soldiers at the Chiang Puak bus station. They asked me to wait until they put on their shirts, helmets, and web belts before I took their picture. I found two soldiers at Thapae Gate but they were too engrossed in their cell phones to notice I was taking a picture. I saw two more at the train station. I imagine that there were a few out at the airport but I didn't want to risk incurring more serious combat-related stress so I went to my favorite restaurant and ordered and ice tea. Oobla dee, oobla da.
