I was invited to eat lunch and see a waterfall with Pi Lek (my next door neighbor) and Pi Gee (my guard). The trip was not exactly what I expected, but it was time well spent.
On our way out of town we grabbed some roadside snack food. We got grilled eggs on a stick and rice in a cane.
When we arrived at our destination, I discovered that lunch and the waterfall were both side trips from the main purpose of the journey: the sale of copied CDs. My neighbor sold 2000 baht worth of CDs to a policeman. It is the intent of the policeman and his wife to resell the four boxes worth of music and movies.
By the time the transaction was completed it was three in the afternoon. By the time “lunch” was finished, it was four. The waterfall got crossed off the to do list. We did, however, get to see the remains of an 11th century temple.
On our way home Pi Lek stopped to purchase a thatch roofed table. The table made a very nice place for breakfast this morning.
