First Trip to the Village

I don't have many pictures worth showing yet, but here are a couple shots that Niti took during our first trip to the village.



The first one is just a shot down the street that our house sits on. Just a quarter of a mile back, the road is completely unsealed and prone to washing out, but once you make it this far things are a lot better.


The second picture is at an overlook point when you first enter the village. The tripod in the back is a huge swing that is used during their annual (and aptly named) 'Swing Festival'. The young man sitting on the left is Anuchit, Niti's older brother. He's been driving us all around the country on his days off, and then taking the bus to Bangkok to sell handicrafts on the weekends.
