With friends from my neighborhood




I received an invitation to attend a 100 day memorial celebration.
It's a gathering held 100 days after the funeral of a family member.

I brought my own bottle of booze, as I remembered, they ran out at the funeral.  This time they had plenty.  I even received a take-out bottle.


Karaoke music could be heard quite a distance.  One nearby expat fled his home and went to Pascal's.

Karaoke was interrupted by an hour long monk's recital.

But hey, I was amongst dozens of friends and neighbors, with free food and booze.

Well that was close

The street curves here, I have the right of way . . .

  • On the right, the Pick-up is coming from the hospital parking lot.
    Appears not to want to stop.

  • On my left, a village baht bus wants to enter the parking lot.
    He stopped and waited patiently
