Summing it all up.

Nov 29 - off to Kabin Buri
The pictures below are thumbnails, meaning they are small copies of the real thing. You just click them. The weather in Norway and in Bangkok just now.

Kran had to go to Kabin Buri East-North-East of Bangkok. See map. A distance or some 170 kms and almost 3 hours drive. Then off to Prachantakham, another 40 kms. But due to slow banking we never managed this town and have to take it on our route to Scenic resort on Dec 3rd.

To the left, Kran's office in the trunk of her car.

First time Kran filled the car to the top with petrol. Some 1700 baths or 42 €s.

Then it was gas.

At 11 baths (€ 0,27) a liter, she filled it with 45 liters in addition to the 40 liters of petrol.

The water is added as well.

Another temple on the road.

It is impressive.

The name Wat Sothon temple.

A stop outside Kabin Buri for some grub.

Kran is happy after an early morning roll in the hay.

The food center was excellent.

Soup for 30 baths (€ 0,75) and pork knuckles for 50 (1,25) is not bad.

The soup with coagulated beef blood is slimming and healthy. No fat, sugar or starch.

As opposed to the knuckles that did have some fat on them.

This fellow has really slimmed down. Not much fat on his bones.

Then off to the bank to wait. Outside a temple for chickens, or so Martin thinks.

A big red chicken. Touching it and saying a prayer is good for luck.

In the bank you wait for 30 minutes to get served and then it takes another 10 minutes to deposit the checks Kran got from the hospital for her goodies.

Kran patiently waiting as all Thais do.

An effective line numbering system is operational with a total of 12 tellers.

The back home. We wasted too much time at the bank so Prachantakham had to be dropped for now.

In the evening, a trip to the walking street again. Just sitting in the street watching people go by is entertainment enough.

A bunch of Koreans taking photos of everything and everybody. Martin took a 50 MB video as well.

Martin's favorite mantis shrimps, here incorrectly called rock lobster. It may sell better.

A happy couple from Singapore.He smoked a water pipe. Will give him headache the next morning.

The ugliness itself, the water pipe. Not good.

The next day, Tuesday November 30th, it was time for an easy day due to a little cold on Martin's behalf and back pains on Kran's behalf.
