  • I love the decorative food that is served on your plate or on a buffet.
    A tomato that is carved to look like a bird,
    butterflies made out of veggies.
    I especially admired this watermelon that was made to look like a flower.

  • Because it was our anniversary, we had a bowl of local fruit and an orchid bouquet in our room when we arrived.
    This was a very special touch and much appreciated.

  • Most public toilets either have a lady sitting at the entrance to collect your coin before you are allowed inside or otherwise they just leave the box sitting on a table and hope you will put your coin in the box.
    These are generally squat toilets with a bucket of water nearby for flushing.

  • The true river transport in Thailand is the long-tail boat so called because the propeller is located at the end of a long drive shaft extending from the engine.
    The motor can be anything from a small marine engine to a large car engine.
    Lon-yail boats can travel at great speed.
    You will see many of these lined up in Ao Nang ready to take you wherever you would like to go.

     Hi Kay. It looks as though you enjoy Thailand about as much as we do. You've travelled there quite a bit. We'll do more when we get back there in November, we'll be there for 4 months.
