Wang Nam Khieo

We went to Wang Nam Khieo and stayed overnight at Narisa Place, Thai Samaggi.


As there were five men and five women in our group, we rented two resort houses. The above is Baan Natavudh for the ladies. The house is new and comfortable. The environment is beautiful and quiet. There were beds, comforters and towels for everyone, with TV, hot showers, refrigerators, breakfast, etc. Narisa Place should be very famous in the future.


Vegetable farms are quite common in Wang Nam Khieo.


On the way back home, we stopped at Jim Thompson Farm, 50 kilometres from Wang Nam Khieo. The Farm is opened for the public during the New Year Season. However, since it was very crowded, we just walked around and took some pictures.

Wedding of Nong Pat and Suriyon

This year I celebrated my Birthday at the wedding ceremony of Nong Pat and Suriyon at the Oriental Hotel.

The next Bond movie to be released soon.

Num Heang, Kabinburi

On the way to Wang Nam Kheo, Dear and I had lunch at Num Heang Restaurant at Kabinburi. In the picture, Dear is very pleased with the grilled river prawn, which is the signature dish there.

Our Wang Nam Kheo Land

White cowboy fences are being built to mark the territory of our land.


The bridge across the creek has been repaired.

It was the first time that Dear was here. He seemed to like his piece of land and the beautiful creek adjacent to the land. The creek has recently been expanded wider, causing more flowing water, so much that we could hear the sound of the water there. Another thing he liked was the good phone reception at the land.



We happened to meet Luk Pla, Boo, and their son at the land.

Two big ponds have been dug on Luk Pla's and Khun Paweena's land, which enhances the beauty of their properties.

Dear tried to take photos of the beautiful wildflowers..

3rd Housewarming Party

The third housewarming party was attended by Tum, P' Pon, Khun Supaporn, Oy, Yui, Mieng, and Pui. After finishing dinner, which had varieties of Thai food, everybody enjoyed singing karaoke. Tum, whose birthday is on September 28, also celebrated her birthday. Happy Birthday!

The flower on the "B. Aechmea Fasciata" plant given by Khun Pichai is blooming very beautifully.

2nd Housewarming Party

Since my condo can accommodate a maximum of ten people at a time, it is necessary to separate friends into groups and invite them one after another. In the second Housewarming Party, guests included Khun Sivaporn and P' Rochana, Khun Pichai and Busaba, Khun Sathit and P' Rachada, Suthas, Thanom (second choice), Nong and Aor. I would like to thank all of them to have attended the party despite terrible traffic jams due to heavy afternoon rain and flood all over Bangkok. Khun Sathit, for example, was so thoroughly wet that he asked for Dear's shirt. Khun Pichai and Suthas had to walk 1.5 kilometres from Rama 4 Road, down Soi Kluey Nam Thai and through Soi 61 to the condo. And P' Rochana had to eat a couple of cherries she bought for me while she spent two hours going to my condo. Thanks everyone!


Aor and Nong helped me prepare Creme Brulee for dessert.

1st Housewarming Party

My first housewarming party was held at my new condo. It has been three months since we moved here.

Guests included Khun Sivaporn and P' Rochana, P' Ad Pusadee, P' Vor, Ood, Puck, Kannika, and Chua Leenawat.


Pumpkin soup was the first dish served, followed by salad, pizza, and spaghetti vongole. The desserts were ice cream from Puck's famous ice cream shop and Pear and Prune in Red Wine Sauce prepared by Ood.

Boat Dinner

A gracious private Italian dinner was organised on the Sabai Cruise boat to celebrate birthdays for Dr. Sumet and Khun Bundit. The boat departed from Supakarn Condominium and sailed along the Chao Phraya River. The food was prepared by Mr Oreste of La Buca restaurant.


Wat Arun of the Temple of Dawn was very beautiful at night.


The SOCCEF members offered a birthday present to Dr. Sumet.
