Sam Chong Seafood Restaurant.

Sam Chong.
Part 1 of 4 sections of our Phang Nga Bay day, Monday 27th September.

We drove north from the Monk home in Kathu and over the Sarasin Bridge to the mainland.
Our route took us to a delta area on the west side of Phang Nga Bay.
We would have lunch at Sam Chong Seafood - a delightful floating restaurant in a tiny hamlet, seemingly miles from anywhere.


View from the restaurant.
Look at those weird colours! It is almost like a water colour painting.
I had my camera set wrongly that day. The men folk will chuckle at this - they couldn't quite understand how I could alter the settings without realising!

A long tail boat comes across the water, laden with tree trunks.


Across the water was a small village.
Perhaps it is only reached by water - long tail boats were back and forth with people (shoppers, school children, workmen etc) and goods.






A wide view from the restaurant.


Mam is happy to have holiday time in beautiful places away from the madding crowd.




Lunch time.
