Around Town :)

Here are a few things we've seen around this small town of Bangkok the last few days :)

Here are some street vendors cutting and selling jack fruit... such a strange fruit :)
That's it for now :)

We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha !
