Jan 21, A Bit More of Phayao


Well, not ALL the signage is Thai. And I guess there
IS an attempt to woo the tourist. Here I am all
wooed.

As we walked the lake edge on this morning after
our new president is official, these two young,
monks-in-training have come to watch the local
fishermen.

This lovely carving fragment, sitting among many in
the shadow of a venerable old tree, near the center of the
friendly wat previously mentioned, echos the
theme thereabouts -- the fish of Lake Phayao.

Our lunch! the local lake fish, stuffed with wads of
lemon grass, covered with coarse salt and bar-b-qued
over a roadside grill. Yum!
