A night on the River

---

We loved our time in Ampawa. Life revolved around the river. The women would bathe in the river in the morning, kids would play in it during the day and after dinner families would come down and wash their dishes in it. As for me......I drank beer while my feel dangled in the river. Syd of course played with the kids and took pictures.

Chatika Riverfront Lodge
I loved this place.

River
Look on the other side of the rver. You can see a lady bathing.

Kids in the river
Note the small kids floating on empty milk jugs. They didn't know how to swim.....

Floating Market
This was the real deal, unlike the Domeon Saduak floating market, which busses in tourists like cattle and sells them over priced items. Syd and I were the only caucasians at this market and prices were cheap.

Our Tuk Tuk driver
He instisted on waiting for us while we shopped and had lunch. When we got back...he was sleeping :)

Prawn boat
She cooked them right on her boat. It was a little floating kitchen.

Giving alms to Monks
Syd made an offering at the local Wat.
