One Saturday we took the express boat up the Chao Phraya river from the pier at the end of the Skytrain and went up to Nonthaburi. From here we took another boat to Koh Kred which is actually an island in the river. This place is famous for its pottery which has been produced by the Mon people there, who originate from Burma, for over 2 centuries. The island is a pleasant place to wander around. Ann bought 2 of these pot dolls which are now installed in our villa. We intend to go back here next time we are in Bangkok with the intention of walking all around the island.

This blog has been inactive for quite some time but I intend to remedy that. So here is the first in a new series of entries.

We have been in Bangkok for the last 6 weeks and been busy buying and selling property. However, we have been out and about in Bangkok as well as making 2 visits to Phuket to look at our new villa.
