We arrived safely in Chiang Rai, Thailand after a short hiccup at the Thai border. The Green Adventures driver was at the hotel just before 8:00 and smoothly transported us to the Lao border. We cleared customs and took a long boat across the Mekong to Thailand. After clearing customs we looked for the driver to take us the rest of the way. After 30 minutes I asked another tour person who was waiting at the pier to try and call The Legend Hotel directly for us. The hotel than arranged for a local guy to take us there rest of the way. I've contated Mr Mee at Green Adventures to let him know his guy wasn't there for us. The good thing is we're here and the hotel is great. We just had some Thai food for a late lunch and will go the the local night market later tonight. Tomorrow is the long and winding road home. Stay tuned.......
