A Favorite Place
One of our favorite Saturday activities once a month is to travel across town to the English library (Neilson Hayes Library- founded by the British Club in Bangkok) and get a large stack of books to last the month.
Silas loves to explore the rotunda shaped art gallery, with an exhibit updated monthly.
The gallery has good acoustics for singing "chicken, chicken, chicken" he's discovered.
A brief stop at the story time with Claire and Eliza. There is a nice mix of kids from many cultures at this story time- mainly British, Indian, Thai, American.
The bean bags are a good place to read a book or just zone out and stare at the light fixtures.
After story time, comes craft time. Today's craft was an magnetized animal scene.
Outside the library is pretty too.
After a morning at the library, we make our usual stop at a close by favorite noodle shop, passing a mosque and many vendors along the way (huge prawns and salted grilled fish for sale!).
Waiting for noodles.
A very common noodle soup is made special in this shop with the addition of duck. Yum!
Slurping our noodles.
