The Hungarian Padthai

  I haven't written for an unforgivable loooong time - but ... Okay, I really have no excuse. I was busy, making new friends, I kind of ditched blogging for a while, I got a new friend that I eagerly chat with every day (he is Hungarian, too), and I don't know. I just had a lot of Damocles' swords and stormclouds above my head figuring out my life (again and again). I guess, the figuring out stays with us any way, no longer what our age is as life itself always produces some topsy-turvy detours which bring us new questions and new perspectives.  Okay, before becoming more philosophical, I would like to give one of my excuses why I wasn't that present nowadays: and the main reason is the monthly cycling event! :-) W. invited me to this long before and not knowing what to expect, I gladly joined him on March the 6th! Oh my... for a long time, this was one of my best days in Thailand! You know, I'm struggling with the language, I struggle with the isolation (sometimes)...

Today I've had my best trip ever! :-)  I don't even know where to start! :-) So, I decided that during the 4-day holiday, I'll do something different - other than Ayutthaya. Yes, Ayutthaya is close but I always go there and it's not that I'm getting tired of the old temple ruins (will I ever?) but I wanted to see something different and surely, there are other things as nice as that nearby, as well. So I looked for places within a 100 km circle and that's how I found Suphan Buri and its museum: Dragon Descendants Museum! (PS: if you live in Thailand or planning to come here before the 31st of December, the museum has reduced prices until the last day of this year. So hurry up! It's REALLY worth it! :-D ). Needless to say, I was a bit tense during the bus ride because I got the information that it takes approximately only 1 and a half hours to get there. Apparently, the van took 2,5 hours! So from now on, I'll know that I always have to add an extra hour ...
