Before I leave, Mae keeps ensuring I’ve enough to eat on the road so she packed some biscuits and water for me. She tied a blessed white string by a famous Luang Por in Lamphun on my hand and Por gave me some amulets for my protection. I, in return gave Mae a Jade bracelet I bought in Myanmar and a mobile phone pouch for Por, together with a set of key chain holders for them.
We then set off to Lamphun & Chiang Mai which Mae insisted they should send me to my guest house. But before we head directly to my guesthouse, we visited a few beautiful temples in Lamphun. See below for details
To thank them which are never enough, but as a token of my appreciation I want to buy them lunch. Poor Por and Mae, I discover they have to endure with my vegetarian diet for the past 2 days. Por and Mae ate two plates of rice, Chicken rice and Char Siew rice. I feel like they have been meat deprived.
Finally, the time to bid farewell is here, Mae make sure my room is good enough to stay before they decided to leave. It reminds me of the first day of school where my mum has made the final check on my wallet, class, friends and everything that deems secure and safe before reluctantly let me go. I sincerely wish them happiness and grateful for what they have done to me. May the good merits I’ve accumulated share with them and they have an amazing life ahead! Pom Rak Por Mae!
WAT PHRA THAT HARIPHUNCHAI
