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.
