I'm going to start with this, and then we'll talk about how we got here. First some lessons:
Penguins have a lot to teach us.
Figuring out where to eat in Chiang Mai is hard. We rejected Chunky and Mouthful.
And settled on this strangely-named place.
Naturally, we followed this by a trip to a retro spy bar. But I'm not good at spying, stresses me out.
When it's hot and touristy outside, it's good to spend some time at the mall. Ms. Mango's arm was broken, so it's safer to hang with the cows.
Outside the mall, there are even more beautiful elephant sculptures, since the real elephants are largely gone.
Speaking of elephants, I am large but weak compared to local tribespeople.
Anyway, we found this blunt marketing, which Barry realized was his dream.
We thought this was going to be a fantastically 3-D printed pancake wonder, but the process is slow and manual, except for the outline.
Barry and Pancake Barry were very pleased with the result, and now we know he's replaceable.
