I was having such a hard time with the computer I didn't say anything about the Grand Palace Grounds. I was awe struck. I enjoyed just sitting and looking and looking. Each time I saw something I hadn't noticed before. I felt like I was in a fairy world. I hope to cruise down the river again and revisit the Grand Palace Grounds.
Thailand's climate is very similar to ours so many of the trees,flowers and plants are ones we also see in Hawaii. Maybe that is why I enjoy going to Lumpini Park. It is a park well landscaped and maintained. And because I recognized so many of the growing things it makes me feel at home. And I love it that so many people enjoy being in it. At 7:30am and again at 5:30pm there are many joggers;groups and individuals. There are many clubs and groups doing Tai Chi,yoga,or other forms of preventive health practices;some with fans and swords,etc. And from early morning moms and dads with their children are paddling around in the duck headed paddle boats and watching the fish jump up as they throw bread into the water. One morning all the fountains in the middle of the lake were on and it looked so beautiful and peaceful. There are many dogs sleepng everywhere. Nobody seems to mind. Traffic is better here than Nairobi and Karachi, but I wouldn't want to drive here.
At first I didn't care for the street food vendors, but Iam beginning to appreciate them. The sign on the computer screen says I must quit so I will before I loose everything again.
Everyday I am learning to appreciate more.
Aloha, Joanne
