The Scenery Resort & Farm Ratchaburi

I am very happy I could visit again the university in Chom Bung, the place I took internship seven years ago. I arrived there just after lunch time, which was not the most suitable time, I should have taken the van from Bangkok one hour earlier. Just as we were approaching the village, my memories started to be coming up. I was so excited that I almost forgot to by a flower for my project manager. I realized that shortly after I entered ...

... down to the canal to meet our boat driver at 7am. About 5 minutes later (and after declining his rotten bananas) he shut the engine off and we swung into the floating market - a series of mini waterways lined with market stalls but more uniquely loads of long boats with ladies selling allsorts. Despite the early start and the pain getting there the previous day, it was great to see the place as it should be ...

... provinces in one place. The third zone is housed to a Jutaka Light and Sound Cave where the story of the Buddhist Saga Vessantara Jutaka is told with the aim to show the result the endless greed of human beings. Next to the cave lies a Herbal Drink house where a tradition refreshment drinks like Chrysanthemum, Rosella, Bael fruit, Lemon Grass, and Longan and Thai tradition sweets are served. The forth zone is exhibited Buddhist Monastic Cells which divided into regional styles where ...

... way back home...we were forced to stop and wait at another tourist-trap kind of place...snake/cobra/mongoose show. There was also a gallery of wood carvings which were pretty cool. Unfortunately...I couldn't really see myself buying a 5 kg elephant carving and lugging it around for another 8 days...and then trying to get it past customs. We waited around for some 30 minutes before finally embarking on the 2 hour ride back to Bangkok. On the way ...

... Never mind, as today was our last chance to see it we were determined. So we managed to arrange a taxi for not too much more than our tour and off we went. I'm not going to rant on too much about the market other than to say it is very very touristy, and after seeing the pictures a bit of a disapointment. However there was a silver ...

Hi, kids! We went here today, but Nancy's camera battery went dead. Hope this is good enough, even if I'm not in the photo! Wish you could all be with me here in Thailand, I really like it here. Big hugs from Red. P.S. This dancer was in front of the Royal Palace in Bangkok. There's an Emerald Buddha statue inside. (Well, it is really jade, but they still call it emerald)

Sat Nov 10<br><br>We left for Ratchaburi around 10am. On our way there we stopped at King Rama 2 Memorial Park to look around. There was a very small museum there and a nice park with many people enjoying the day. We then wend to the big market in Ratchaburi. We walked around to look at the stuff, then ate some dinner at a place right by the walking ...

Well, just 3 more days in the place I've called home for about the last 9 months, Thailand (just incase you forgot!) and then it's up and away to the place I was due to be at about 8 months ago, Australia. The rest of my island hopping was fantastic. After Samui I moved on to Ko Phi Phi which was so unbelieveably different from the picture postcard image since the tsunami it's unreal. I mean, they've rebuilt A LOT of it and for the most part on first glance you can't really ...

Hi all, Well, this Eliran guy turned to be quite different from me. As soon as we ate supper, I understood that his plans are completely different from mine. Having that in mind, and the fact that I was totally dissappointed from Bangkok, I've turned to the travel agency in the Israeli Connection and ordered a 2 days trip at Kanchanaburi. I said to my self: I need to get to know people to break the depression. The Depression Bangkok ...
