On Thursday I failed to mention that I started reading a book that my parents and Adina had sent me in the mail. It's a book I would never chose for myself but Adina had heard that it was good so I decided I'd give it a chance. I spent most of today reading this book, even though I wouldn't have picked it up it was somehow entrancing, like a car accident you can't stop rubber necking at. I spent most of my day reading my book with a few breaks to go to the night market and to plan my lesson for my Monday class.
The night market was a good time, I hadn't been to the market in Kor Tor Mor in a while because I'd been out of town or busy but it's so close that I decided to go. This is the market I was taken to my first night in Thailand, it runs every Sunday and Wednesday night and is usually packed with people. I bought some coconut juice with peices of coconut flesh floating in it, as well as some bananas, a bag of sticky rice and some chicken on a stick for dinner. I'll miss markets when I go back to Canada, I was realizing how much I was taking for granted the fact that I can just walk out to the fruit stand or the sticky rice/chicken on a stick stand and get something tasty and fresh.
Today's picture is of a woman who was selling embroidered bags at the night market in Luang Prabang.
