Raising a family in Thailand // Documenting Issan food, culture, music, and people
For the past year, we’ve been relying on a Cefiro specialist in Khon Kaen for repair of our Cefiro A33 (Infiniti I30), and we had noticed a huge pagoda just down the street several times. A few weeks ago, we took the kids along with us and decided to visit the pagoda after dropping off our car to fix leaky power steering hoses. It was a great trip to a temple truly rich in history, Wat Nongwang (aka Wat Kaen Nakorn)
I was greeted with the following exchange upon returning home to bring my sick kids (who choose to play hooky in unison) lunch:
MAX: Daddy, are you going to work again?
DADDY: Hello, Max. I brought you some noodles.
MAX: DADDY, ARE YOU GOING TO WORK AGAIN, DADDY?
DADDY: Why?
MAX: I want you to go make a lot of money! GO TO WORK AGAIN, PLEASE, DADDY!
MINA: YEAH DADDY, GO TO WORK!
The monsters have grown too powerful to control.
This boy can make anything with legos. Sometimes we sit down together and have battles with our creations against toy cars and plastic models. Here’s one of his recent creations:
