Nonthaburi Province


Hello again. Wow 2 posts in one day. I'm hoping for a third, we'll see if time allows. This is a smaller post. Last week Hong, Sacha, Mai (pronounced 'my') and I went to Nonthaburi Province (not too far away from here) and we saw a little more of the Thai culture. It was interesting because it was more of the "native culture" not spoiled by huge shopping malls and farang. We were the only white people around. The island we specifically went to is called "Koh Kred". The dominant trade in this area of Thailand is pottery. There was quite a bit of pottery and we were able to see some artists shaping and moulding their artwork into some nice clay pots. The image below is a picture of Mai, Hong, and I (Sacha is taking the photo). The gesture we're doing with our hands is what the Thai do to show they're handsome. Haha it's a Thai thing I guess...
