Wat Bang Peng Tai (@Bangkok)




Wat Bang Peng Thai is near a waterway and other Wats and coffee shops - so it is worth visiting.


But there was not a lot more I could find out about it - although TripAdvisor had some information to read and so do Inspirock.


It is a temple which is taken care of by a number of people as I have never visited it 
and it has been untidy.


I read that it was built by people from Laos 
and is over 100 years old.








Do I need to upgrade my iPhone 12?

Suan Malai Victoria Water Lily (@Nonthaburi)


Suan Malai Victoria Water Lily (Nonthaburi) is apparently the largest garden of this type.


I did wonder whether you are able to walk on the lily but whilst we were there nobody did - then I read in The Telegraph 2019 than it can be done.


Then I read that the leaf of the Lily is the strongest in the world !


But they did not let us have a go! (video has been deleted from YouTube)

It was picturesque and certainly worth visiting

Zeez - Visit 6 (closed)


Zeez was empty when we visited today so service and food was very quick!


I love their kitchen at the front of the restaurant.


The food was very
good and quickly eaten.

Bellinee’s Bake & Brew (@ThePaseo Town)


Bellinee’s Bake & Brew is a relatively new outlet that we visit for Western breakfast - this one is at The Paseo Mall.



Everything we had was very good.



At the moment (November 2021) they are giving out 50% discount vouchers which we hold on to very carefully.


Thank you

     


Silence by Shūsaku Endō


Shusaku Endo is Japan's foremost novelist, and Silence is generally regarded to be his masterpiece. In a perfect fusion of treatment and theme, this powerful novel tells the story of a seventeenth-century Portuguese priest in Japan at the height of the fearful persecution of the small Christian community.

 I gave the book 4 out of 5. 

Text is from GoodReads.


    

Night Market



There was a night market which we were told to go to whilst we were in Laos on a Visa Run.




It was very much like a market that you would see if you were regularly in Bangkok - so certainly worth making a visit if you are here.


Found some different things here.

    

Tanyapat & Anyawee - Visit 8


Tanyapat & Anyawee is on Ramkhamhaeng 76 so it is very easy for me to get to - far too easy in fact, just had one this morning as I write this blog post.


In fact I might just go back this afternoon and take a seat and watch the world go round on the weekend.


Not thought of taking my work there yet 
- but it is an interesting concept.


The same with being served food - I think though that I will stay with my cappuccino.


There are also other options for coffee on the same Ramkhamhaeng 76
