A Mother-Daughter Photo Adventure

Claire and I (Candice) had a fun day yesterday exploring parts of Bangkok with our cameras. Claire met this friendly lady who insisted that Claire take a picture of her in front of her rice shop. We had a lot of fun asking strangers if we could take their pictures. In our own neighborhood, I'm a lot less inclined to come across as such a tourist!

Durian for sale! Durian is known in Thailand as "the King of fruits." Hmmm- i think I'd give that title to the pineapple. Eliza is the only member of our family who is a fan. We once read a book that described the taste as "eating custard in an outhouse." The smell is so bad that many public spaces (trains, hotels) have signs banning it!

Claire enjoyed borrowing Daddy's skytrain card and making multiple trips like a big kid.
