a picture day

Yesterday I went up the other side of the mountain to a very old and famous Wat.  You can drive up or walk up and I elected to scoot up. The last time it was bumper to bumper.  This time the cars were flying down and often in my air space.   There are several things that make this famous

The very large Budda which can be seen for miles


and

the number of lottery numbers that are picked by shaking the sticks after making worship.   You do this by bringing white flowers which you put on a dish and then say an intention prayer and then light three incense.  

After watching the stock market descend today, this might have been a good thing to do.

The road out there is a wide highway.. this is actually the road to Hong Dong.  If you look, you might see the light number is at 41...it started at 99 so you are there for a little.   I noted the road is put down in strips.  With little scooter wheels you can tell when you move from one strip to another and you really know when you are on the white line.
It is interesting to look down on the city from this view point.

 

everyone is into a selfie...
