Sat. Feb. 10 - Ta Chine riverside market





































Perfect day of touring today. I met Pimol, Mantana, and her husband at the library by 9 a.m. and we drove about an hour to the Ta Chine river for a boat ride, preceded by a fine visit through their most pleasant, large market. It's much cooler here than in Bangkok, though still warm in the mid-90s F., but dappled shade everywhere.

Here you see photos of the foods, clothes, flowers, and crafts. The blue blouse is for my sister, Kay. Pimol is at the top with her palm-leaf dragonfly, made by the man seated with his tools.

You'll also see Mantana with orchids, the most gorgeous crispy fish, Thai sweets, etc.
