nong prajak park

In the very early 2000's, Udon held a few welcoming parties for expats in the community. One, outside the city police department, had a variety of Udon businesses offering free food/drink. Uncle Mustache (ลุงหนวด) offered lahb from his restaurant.....so good!, we've been eating at his restaurant for the 25 years since.
There were a few other welcoming parties around Nongprajak.....I recall a parade of foreigners and spouses through the city. With all the 'handsome' guys in town, I'm surprised there's never been a Sexiest Falang contest in town.

The great garbage patch.

It was suggested that I performed a dance routine with some of the female staff with me in drag.

So wrong.

Not at all. The smell of the greasepaint darling, its addictive.

Post Loy Kratung cleanup

I bet it was packed. Probably better to have a Loi Kratong knees up at Nong Bua park.

Iranian drones?

An early morning half-marathon, marvellous. I guess that microlite must have launched from that airstrip just out of town. I visited it once with Saint and Big Wave Dave for a radio controlled 'plane thingy.

Nong Bua is exactly 2000 Meters, or 2 Kilometers. Never walked Nong Prajak.

NP is 3.17 km, 2 miles.

Thanks for that boat race tip, mak. Nothing posted on normal Udon FB pages.......but should be interesting to watch. No times shown on the poster......but 23-27 January, daylight hours, is probably a safe bet.

Uni races. Lots of uni students in town. Bangkok, Surat Thani to name a few.
Dragon boats, kayaks, canoes. sculls.
