The Beauty of Beach "Lets go to the Bus!" Mr. Driver exclaimed loudly to the travelers. One of the team leaders, named Kun Pun, tried to negotiate with the driver about the trip schedule. Kun Pun explained that there might be traffic on the way to the beach in the evening. So Kun Pun suggested to the leader to change the plan for the trip. We hurriedly boarded the bus and I chose to sit near Kun Pun so I could enjoy the scenery along the way to Phuket. We go from hotel Our hotel is located inside the campus of Prince of Songkla University. It's a nice hotel with clean rooms and excellent facilities. I also have the opportunity to go for a run around the campus for exercise, as it's a beautiful place. As we departed from the campus, the bus slowly made its way out through the campus gate. While the driver focused on the road, my friend started singing a song, "Let's go to the sunset." Welcome to California Welcome to California! They said

"Let's have lunch there," I eagerly suggested to Nong Ake one sunny afternoon. Nong Ake looked intrigued and asked, "Where?" I explained that it was a unique restaurant located by the Nan River, designed like a boat. He nodded with excitement, agreeing to give it a try. We hopped into our car, the anticipation building as we made our way towards Phitsanulok night bazaar, just a stone's throw away from a picturesque monastery. The drive took us about ten minutes from our hotel, and we could already catch glimpses of the river's glistening waters. As we arrived, the sight of the restaurant left us in awe. It truly resembled a boat, perfectly capturing the essence of being on water. We stepped inside, and the ambiance transported us into a maritime adventure. The wooden interior, nautical-themed decorations, and the gentle swaying sensation beneath our feet made us feel as if we were embarking on a grand voyage. The hunger hit us almost instantly, intensi

 A Captivating Night in Phitsanulok: Unveiling the Enchanting Temple and Riverside Delights As the sun gently descended on the horizon, casting a warm glow over the landscape, my friend and I found ourselves filled with anticipation. "Let's wait for the sun to go down," my friend whispered excitedly. The clock struck 17:30, and we knew our memorable journey to Phitsanulok was about to begin. The vibrant night atmosphere and the allure of the famous temple called out to us. Our destination was the renowned Wat Yai, a majestic temple nestled near the TOPLAND plaza. To reach our destination, we hopped into a colorful "song tew" taxi or boarded a bus from the terminal. A few words to the driver, "Pai wat yai" (take us to Wat Yai), and we soon found ourselves stepping off near the captivating temple, ready to immerse ourselves in its wonders. Wat Yai, also known as Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat Vora Maha Vihara, stood before us in all its grandeur, represen
