Klong Hae is about 10 minutes away from Songkla, the southern Thai City, north of Alor Star. It is accessible by the Hadyai highway or through the maze of this crowded city's roads.
Besides the boat-cum-stalls which line the river, there are rows and rows of thatched hut that house more stalls selling a myriad of Thai delicacies and handicrafts.
This is Yours Sincerely ( Y S ) enjoying a giant piece of cracker. Observe the peddlars on boats.
This is a hot and delicious Thai snack. By the way, the fired prawns that went along with it had already been eaten !!! Everything is RM 2.00 here. It is like a gigantic "Food fair." However, your stomach has to be quite strong to with stand the food.
This is a vendor who sells drinks. See the cute earthen mugs. They come with the drink at RM2.00. They can double up as your flower pots, pencil holders or coffee mugs.
There are long tables and stools for visitors to sit and eat. By the way, forget about the air-conditioner and ambiance. Do bring some wet hand towels to wipe your hands.
The vendors are colourfully dressed in their best. They look neat and tidy. The snacks, typical of the Thais, are equally very colourful. Bon appetite !
So, one down for Y S on the Ist of January 2010.
Live with zest. Explore your surroundings.
