Amazing Thailand

Since we have not been doing a lot of really exciting traveling we thought we would share some of the interesting things that we have been seeing that you would not normally see back home. All of these these things really happened, but we were usually not ready with the camera or it was just not right to take the picture. Pictures would make this so much funnier!!

• A man riding a bike with a can of beer in the water bottle holder.
• People wearing plastic bags on their heads when it rains.
• A child pooping on newspaper outside.
• A sleeping cat in a food display case.
• People drinking soda from plastic bags.
• Signs that read "Don't Smoking"
• Ladyboys (lots of them!)
• People riding scooters while...holding an umbrella, talking on the cell phone, or forging the most resent downpour.
• There is a river that runs though the neighborhood. There are houses that back up to the river and a small (about 2 feet wide) side walk bride to get to them. After a huge rainstorm it was covered. We watched two women in the dark walk down the sidewalk without being able to see it. Talk about Faith!
• Scooters also drive down this side walk also- not usually while flooded but it happens!
• 25-30 people on the back of a small pick-up (it's only 5 baht you'd hop on too!)
• Whole pigs lined up on tables ready for sale

Well that's a little picture into out day to day life here in Thailand. I'm sure there will be more. Everyday is a sensory experience!
