Borae local market

Borae Market is somewhere quite close to our home so we have been more than once but I have realised that I have not posted for 5 years.

Borae Market is somewhere you would visit if you were looking for a very typical food market.

Always a fascinating selection of seafood to choose from.

I have seen these giant sea snails previously - but I have never tried them myself.

Then there were the more traditional snails which seemed to be trying to get out of the box?

The selection is varied and I always wonder what I will find next - I am still unsure as to what these are.

Opening a lift door

Published on 5 Feb 2016

After a fight at a KTV hall in Hangzhou city in eastern China’s Zhejiang Province, a drunken 24-year-old kicked the elevator door. But little did he know that he would fall to the first floor from the fourth floor. Fortunately, there were no life-threatening injuries apart from a fractured leg.

How do all these make their way onto the Internet?

Then I read the comments...

Sometimes the Internet is too much...

4 Flavour regions of Thailand

Where are you going in Thailand? because this will affect the type of Thai food you eat.

I live in Phuket and I cannot eat the yellow sour curry!

Restaurants in Phuket - รานสมตำเมองคอน สะพานหน

รานสมตำเมองคอน สะพานหน is a restaurant that we choose to go to in Sapan Hin. At the current time Sapan Hin is a place which is predominantly used by the local Thai people and I cannot list how many times we have visited for I don't know how many different
reasons.

The best reason for visiting รานสมตำเมองคอน สะพานหน is their Yam Pla Dook Fu (Thai catfish Salad) - the best in Phuket.

The restaurant itself serves you in the Traditional Thai way of sitting around a low table but there is also the opportunity to sit on a chair - we choose the traditional way.

As mentioned we always have the Catfish Salad so I could not tell you what else we have but it is all extremely cheap. It does taste good with a Singha...

Don't forget to visit the Chinese Shrine near by - Kiew Tian Keng

Wat Chalong Temple Fair Pt. 2 (2016)

A Temple Fair is a another reason to visit a Wat - but it is very different and we returned again - but were not to do the same thing again. So today we;

Purchased some Star Wars toys...

Wondered why there was a gun game in a Buddhist Temple...

So many wristwatches.

Got duped by these games - they offer you a dart to throw against the balloon - which you take and then they want the money for the dart you just threw...
