Dec 3 A Day in the Life of BanPong
Yupadee's brother has just purchased this fine old historical
mansion and compound which once belonged to a very
successful Chinese gentleman. Their father had once been
in his employ. It will take some serious renovation, but it's
a beauty with much of the fine old teak still in good
condition.
Even little kids know the protocol for honoring
the ancestors and the spirits of the house. This
one at the dentist office afforded a particularly
charming example.
Lunch with Jing at a riverside food shop near
her hospital.
A walk through the market shows a nice rice variety.
The night of the smiley moon over BanPong.
December 1, a rare alignment of moon and planets
that was photographed from several locations
on earth, and engendered much excitement
throughout our town. In the US the positions
were such that it was a frowning face.
