Dec 7 Last full day in BanPong - saying goodbye to favorites
Our traditional evening walk along the river was a bit more
colorful than usual on this our last night before heading
north to Chiang Mai.
This happy lady was selling yummy sweet rice wrapped
in banana leaves. It's a good thing she didn't come
every day. I've already far exceeded my daily
calorie needs. But we have adopted the theory (yet
to be disproven) that everything green is good --
especially those neon green "noodles"
Will surely miss our favorite bar-b-qued chicken
place around the corner. They knew I preferred
the som tam thai (papaya salad) with no shrimp and
only one half a hot pepper and a packet of sticky rice
on the side. It always came with lots of smiles.
The lovely man had wonderful soy milk and and
other afternoon pick-me-ups and came right
to the door. He was very popular.
We spoke to Yupadee's advanced Sunday class
to give them exposure to native English speakers.
We were astounded at their comprehension and
the depth of their questions. How would you
answer "Can you tell me about the American lifestyle?
They even laughed at our jokes.
