SadieMBeagle Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Just out of curiosity, what areas are included in "upper" Thailand? Is that the same as Northern Thailand? Just wondering if I need to batten down the hatches in Chiang Mai. Thanks! Yunnie, I've seen ponchos at Tesco and 7-11, and even some drug stores. They're usually near the cashiers, in the "oh yeah, I forgot I needed one of these" area Also, if you can find a pull-over style instead of one with snaps, get it! I learned a cold wet lesson the other day when we had 2 evenings of rain here in CM. My shirt front got quite damp. My back, however, was dry as a bone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may need that poncho more for Songkran than any rain at the moment. I just want to make sure. I would hate to be riding on motorcycle and it starts raining and no poncho. Thanks Sandie!!! I'll check 7 tomorrow after class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
