Our organising rule for this blog is a bit random. We made lots of day trips and weekends all over Thailand while we were living in Bangkok, but only a few seem to have made it into the photo albums. I thought the idea was that if it were an overnight trip, we'd put it in the book, but day trips were out. But Koh Kred is definitely a day trip, and is still in, so the new rule will be that we'll put it in the blog if we feel like it. Koh Kred is just up the river from Bangkok, in fact in the river since it's a tiny island in the middle of the Chao Phrya. We spent the day there with our good friend Molly. A nice way to spend a day, but definitely not a must see sight. You walk through the waterside village, where everyone is selling ceramic pots, identical, very heavy ceramic pots, which is what they're known for. There's also a couple of temples, but just your standard variety that you can see in every village in Thailand. I remember this one stood out for the particularly diseased nature of the dogs there. Buddhist temples tend to attract animals since the monks take care of them, and some temples are famous for the hordes of monkeys or snakes at the temple. This one just had really sick looking dogs.

you're smiling.
Of course, as soon as I posted the photo, I thought, stolidog will write that I'm smiling. It's like we're related sometimes...
