Re: boat racing at Nong Prajak
Spend an hour there this pm, waiting for school pickup. Good entertainment and fun. Male/Female teams from all over the country and various types of boats in use. Appears to be well organised, even a Happy Toilet bus ( which UDFC is unable to sort out for their games!). Numerous food stalls. The road on the TAT office side of the lake is partly closed. Wish I could show some photos, but cannot d/l. I cannot vouch for the racing ability of a happy, girls' dragon boat team from Amnat Charoen, but they'd win any beauty contest! As long as the weather holds, good to sit on the grass for a while. Not sure about alcohol for those who must. Along with the world volleyball a while back, this seems another success in Udon calling itself "Sport City". Perhaps the World Cup Veterans Football will return to Udon too? That was great years back.
