My motorbike broke yesterday, I sent it to its service center for repairing. Today, I got to go to get it. At first, I planned to go to the service center by taking a Songteaw (a red local taxi) but, since, the service center was far from my place, most of Songteaw refused to bring me there. Its out of there route and if they admit to go, the fee would high. At the road side, right after the forth Songteaw refused me, I saw a bus...I did not think at first to take a bus but it would not be a bad choice, isn't it? I caught one of them even I did not really know where it went to... "just ask the bus driver how to get there by bus" I thought...
I found that I can get to my aim place buy taking this bus to Kad Luang and then catch another bus, which run the routh heading to the Central Airport Plaza (the Shopping Mall), and stop by my motorbike service center which located at the middle of the way. I took the bus from Jed-yod temple run through Huay Kaew Road to Zoo and turn heading east passed Cantral Kad Suan Kaew Shopping Mall, passed the nort and turned to the east side of the moat then cut to Kad Luang.

View from the bus to the road: the east side of the moat
I took off and waited for another bus. After about fifteen minutes, I caught another bus. the Bus heading through a flower market to Tha Pae road, and heading back to the moat again and turned to the road passing Chiang Mai Gate's market on the south of the moat

then cut to Hai Ya road which heading to the central Airport Plaza. I then stopped at the middle of the way.....and there my motorbike service center.....Since the bus fee is 15 baht entire the routh, I took two routh spent total 30 baht for this trip. I think it's cheaper than a Songteaw when talking about the same distance.
I think it's not bad to take a bus to travel in Chiang Mai, especially during this hazy summer day (the air condition in the bus help a lot to filtrate the air)....However, you got to have time if you would like to travel by bus in Chiang Mai...........My trip.........ate almost half a day.

I like taking a bus because it's much cheaper than taking a red local taxi (if we have to go some places that are far from the city). Especially, a bus has an air conditioner. It's cool and so comfortable! (^-^)And inside the bus, it's clean. Now the weather in Chiangmai is not good I think we should take a bus. We don't have to face bad air from the outside. I think if people have to go out and they are scared of bad air in Chiangmai right now, it may be a good idea to take more buses instead.
