Of May 23 Saturday. This is the street life of the people of the neighborhood that I actually started living in part-time although I still live in Japan I have a place here in Thailand. Life is very slow pace a very very slow. The weather is very hot and I think this would makes people just really move slow during their daily lives. I want to capture the daily life of the people as they struggle to make ends meet day by day . Hour by hour. In this neighborhood there's only a few foreigners that actually reside here. So it's not a tourist trap or whatever they want to call it but the area is is going to be developing really soon actually developing but it's in a flood zone when it rains everything gets flooded. I'll post if possible daily my adventures of hopping on my bicycle and just bump it around town.

Yes her house is like an Open door campsite. We got wildlife inside you think you're in a little miniature jungle it's pretty cool. The birds come up to you chirp for little love songs it's really nice really in harmony.
 
It's Sunday May 25th I'm up I'm going around Bangkok Thailand. This area here at night time on the weekends it's like the wild West it is so bad that even the restaurant owners the drinking establishments they don't even clean up after they close at I don't know 1 2 or 3:00 in the morning and you see the stores the liquor bars all the beer bottles still on the tables strange.

This is what your restaurants and bars look like very typical outside most of everything is done outside except for your high class tourist areas people like to stay inside with the air conditioning. For me I really don't like air conditioning because you get accustomed to it then you have to go outside and the heat it's like being attacked with an atomic bomb it was really not I don't think it's very healthy myself.

This is a motorcycle auction place. Here they have hundreds of motorcycles that have been repossessed and they have an auction twice a month I've been here a couple times already mainly because I love motorcycles. The thing of it is is that all the good motorcycles are sold the first time they appear at the auction you're allowed to visit and check out the motorcycles ahead of time. What you see here in this picture these motorcycles could be there for for the last year or two years trying to be an auction off they're all outdoors to that you buy it as is. You really can buy a motorcycle for his for less than $10 you have no joke. I think those type of motorcycles are brought to schools to teach the children the students about maintenance and repair work. The options draw in a wide variety of people from native people to foreigners and it's really pretty exciting how they speak and how they throw the flags when a

motorcycle gets sold. Usually the the program is about 2 hours long depends how many motorcycles they're going to function off. It's free to attend but I think you have to well in order to bid you have to have a number and I think they have a deposit for that.

In Thailand I can see why people drink from morning to the time to go to bed one reason is the weather and the slow pace of life. Proportion Bangkok gets hustled bustle type lifestyle. But in this area is kind of outside of Bangkok actually it's considered Bangkok but the people are laid back and you can touch where I mean most people are on something I mean really they're just really like really kicking into life like it's you just don't see this type of magic in in the area in America or even in the country where you live it's just something very mystical about it.

We've been to this place at night time it's pretty exciting it's really hot at night to go on a summer nights sometimes there's a quick shower and then disappears after about 3 minutes I guess it's like the tropical weather. Beer is pretty cheap food is that goes from pretty good to they have a lot of stray dogs that come in and out of the area so I think you know what I mean. Well that's it for a Sunday it's Monday now rain is is coming in it's a rainy season here. Not sure what I have planned for today just have to go with the flowthey say here

I didn't mean to say the word bad but it but I mean my mad is just like real bad in a good sense it's just everybody is really happy and everybody's drunk and probably stoned too and just live music that everybody just really enjoying themselves it's really a free spirit everybody has this free spirit about them at night time I think it has to do with the alcohol and drugs they probably take but it's really busy I mean you just got a hundreds and hundreds of people crowded in the bars as you can tell by the pictures it's really laid back it's nothing fancy like you'd find in the major cities at their high class restaurants this is just people are really down to earth anyway it's very exciting now continue taking pictures the rainy season so it's actually sprinkling right now okay I'll be posting more pictures.

I'd try the gyoza. Not sure about the pureed crab brain.
Yeah I know what you mean the gyozs that look pretty good I watch her fry them.

I scheduled my second appointment for cataracts operation whatever my child next month and my first one went pretty good I'm not complaining or I felt the doctor did a wonderful job so I said okay let's go ahead and try the second eye my second eye is actually my good eye so hope everything goes okay for that I have a lot more pictures I'll be posting as often as I can I'll try to ride a little about the pictures itself
