Chakri

It's Chakri Day, a Thai holiday commemorating the founding of the Chakri Royal Dynasty in 1782. We seized our holiday opportunity to take our crew outside and downtown to Lumpini Park, the Central(ish) Park of Bangkok. Thus inspired by this fair city, here are a few glimpses of Bangkok and some of its inhabitants, both human and reptile...


Asa considers the monitor lizard...

and he descends to his murky lair

not so big, but prettily patterned

Julian has a little trouble with the fountain

two fair flowers

coffee or tea?

to market, to market

I always love visiting your blog. We just took a trip to the zoo and saw those lizards, however, it was not NEARLY as cool as having one amble out of the bushes in King's park...scared the life out of us! :) Julian is getting so big, what a fun (busy) time that exploring age is. Thanks too, Rhianna, for your kind comments. I will never forget your response to my crawling in the shopping cart post. You bless me dear friend.
