What's an elephant village? Another tourist attraction. On the way to the floating market, one has the opportunity to ride an elephant. 600 bahts for 15 minutes. Poor animals :(

On the way to the floating market. Not that you can't get there by bus, but if you go by boat you can see the "traditional way of living" as they call it when presenting it to the tourists. People here are really poor.

And the famous floating market. I wrote about it in my first post about Bangkok so I won't say it again. I bought some fruit (double the price than in the city) and that's all.

Banana barbeque







The food is cooked on the spot. Hygiene? What's that? If it's boiled, it's safe... they say.


The master cook of the floating market. A Chinese lady.

Next episode is about the New Year's Eve. With flying lanterns and fireworks.
