Series VI, Roll 7, Frame 19 (Pentax K2, Ilford HP5) - Soon after our arrival in Mae Hong Song. There was some kind of parade going down the street, maybe for the holiday that had all the shops closed the next day. I don't think we found out.
We didn't stay there long before we headed off to meet a friend of Madoka's, someone she had met last year, the head of the Burmese Women's Union. Her place was a bit out of town and we spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening there and had dinner. It was dark by the time we managed to procure transportation, two motorcycles, back to the guesthouse.

Madoka and I have been a little more comfortable with each other, but we don't have the same kind of directed communication we usually have. Perhaps it's because we're here for a purpose, and so she's focused on that. After we got back to the guesthouse, we had a little quality time to ourselves and we went looking for something to eat. It had rained and it was pleasant. We found a small restaurant still open. There was almost no one else around, quite different from the swarm of humanity in Bangkok.
