The King's Park

Last weekend we went on a family outing to a park near our home. The park was created in honor of the current King of Thailand, and it is a beautiful place. It has lovely landscaping, a lake, and the structure you can see in the photo below, which houses artifacts from the King's life. It's quite interesting, and you can learn a great deal about him. He's truly a Rennaisance man- a musician (saxophone), painter, even a sailor and a boat builder! All of this in addition to being the most-beloved Thai King of all time and putting in place many initiatives to sustain both agriculture and industry in this country.


What a treat!

Riding the "swan paddleboats". No life vests here; you just get in the boat and go!



Where's Emmy?

Peek-a-boo!
