Winter, Remember and more…
Where I last month complained about the too much rain we are now talking about the higher parts of the rice field are too dry. At the beginning of the month we had a few days with light rain but after that it was dry until Sunday 27 when we had a little rain. This weather and the lately colder mornings are the harbinger of Winter.
13 October was Queen’s Day and 23 October was remembering King Chulalongkorn and on that day sister-in-law Warunee decided to have a remember Temple service for lost family members among other: Mamma Thumarak, brother Narong, her before husband Thomas Roejfors. So, after preparing food, the day before, we went in the morning to “our” Temple of Ban Pho Chai for the Temple service with the mention of the names of the deceased persons.
For the building blocks we’ve finished the “none Lego” Harry Potter “Forbidden Forrest” and I finished the extended version of Hogwarts Castle (6,000+ pieces). We still have to build 2 smaller “Harry Potter” ones and I almost finished Harry Potter Hogwarts Express but… I miss a “few” important part which I ordered in The Netherlands.
For the virtual challenges I walked & biked in America (Appalachian Trail & the Oregon Trail), Norway (the Fjords of Norway) and I am almost finished the fantasy challenge of Tim Burton’s “Corpse Bride”. Of course, I’m still busy with the year cycling challenge (Conqueror 2024). This month I finished the “North Coast 500” in Scotland and the fourth Harry Potter (there will be again 3 HP’s at the end of this year).
