One thing we noticed in Pai is that vacationing Thais strike a pose in front of just about any monument, historical site or sign indicating where they are for that matter. By striking a pose I mean that you constantly feel like you have walked onto an amatuer photo-shoot. Check the tourists behind John in these pics taken out on an old WWII bridge. (Built near Chiang Mai and later moved near Pai after the war. Most bridges were blown up by the Japanese as they left the country).
Here is John floating above Pai Canyon. This, by the way, was a great little hike where you assumed the risk for your own safety. The trail was at times one foot wide and had some sketchy, loose downclimbs with drops into the canyon below on either side.
