two steps behind

Water is LIFE!!! I believe that everyone must have heard that statement before. However that statement couldn’t be more true anywhere else but in THAILAND (years ago!) where the means of transportation, food, agriculture, culture and life-style were really relying upon rivers and small canals.

It was a short visit, yesterday, at the floating market in Pattaya, Thailand where they RE-CREATE 4 regional (Northerner, Southerner, Easterner, and Westerner) Thai’s way of life. There were so many foods that I just got really filled by a little bit of this and that. Souvenir shops are at every corner that I didn’t even want to start buying because I would probably end up with a mountain load of them.

So check it out at http://www.pattayafloatingmarket.com/
Great varieties of food to eat,
Excellence view for photographing,
Simply an amazing place be.

GOOD TIME

*Forgot to mention that… in the photo, if you are wondering… Yes the people in the rowing boat are about to go under that bridge! Everyone had to duck! Really low so that the boat can float thru! Neat huh!

Last year when I visited the water fountain at Siam Discovery – Siam Paragon, there were no doves. To my surprise today when I visited the fountain, I found these dove sculptures are being displayed in the middle of the water fountain. The water causes the wooden doves to bounce up and down, mimicking flying and playing with the water. It is a great idea! So simple, yet so playful!

After having lunch with my roommate, Miran who visited Thailand and has traveled to more places in Thailand than I ever have! I stopped by Siam Paragon because it was raining and I prefer to walk around the city rather than be stuck in traffic for hours because of the rain and rush hour. It was too bright when I arrived at Paragon, so I spent 2 hours to walk here and there waited for the night to come.

It was well worth it, the wait…!!
