Bhumibol 2 Bridge (BKK)


Bhumibol 2 Bridge is a bridge across the Chao Phraya River from Bangkok and we visited  วัดพราหมณ์ (มหาเทวลัย) and Wat Bang Nam Phueng Nok in Samut Prakan.





The bridge is not very long.



But I felt that it was very picturesque.

This is a trip you MUST do if you are in Phuket. 

     

The Bonanza Exotic Zoo (Khao Yai)


The
Bonanza Exotic Zoo in Khao Yai was certainly 
a different zoo. For example we saw the elephant at 
a distance and went to see it looking to feed it!


Then we were greeted by Batman.


Then we were greeted by a sheep!


Then a turtle came to see us.


We could have had a game of chess but we didn't.


We did not get too close to this.


Then we thought that Halloween would be soon.


Then we found a giraffe.


Is this an albino porcupine?


Then there was the dinosaur steps and the crocodiles.

This was something I was very keen on but gave up in 2012.

     

Phuket Raceweek at Cape Panwa Hotel (2022)


Wow - this brings back memories


     

Ramkhamhaeng 76 Walk 9

 
I had already had my iced coffee and I needed the exercise - doctors orders - November 2021.


Somebody else was out on their tricycle!


Good luck renting the shop...


I had to walk over the khlong - it was a very thin bridge...


But the view was good when I got on it!


Motorbike taxis were waiting today - getting busier.


What are they building here?


A favourite restaurant of ours - Zeez is behind this.



I can't help spotting spelling mistakes.


Food for sale.


A shrine at the bottom of the tree.


Over the bridge.


And an empty building.




      


Apple Tree Yard by Louise Doughty



Yvonne Carmichael sits in the witness box. The charge is murder. Before all of this, she was happily married, a successful scientist, a mother of two. Now she's a suspect, squirming under fluorescent lights and the penetrating gaze of the alleged accomplice who's sitting across from her, watching: a man who's also her lover. As Yvonne faces hostile questioning, she must piece together the story of her affair with this unnamed figure who has charmed and haunted her. This is a tale of sexual intrigue, ruthless urges, and danger, which has blindsided her from a seemingly innocuous angle. Here in the courtroom, everything hinges on one night in a dark alley called Apple Tree Yard.

I gave the book 5 out of 5.

Wat Tham Kao Noi (Kanchanaburi) - (2/2)


It was spectacular - wow.






Then there was a cave that we could enter, I felt blessed entering here - it was stunning.



And then there was more outside to see.



Quite spectacular.


And places to make merit.
