A very nice, laid back restaurant in Khon Kaen. This is right on the river and the tables are under thatched roofs. Most always a nice breeze. The food is excellent, service is superb, and the beer is ice cold.

On my first visit to Khon Kaen to meet my lady, I got to meet some of the family and friends of my wife. Great people and really down to earth.

Wanting to do something different, I went to a fish pond for about 1/2 a day. Total cost was about $6 USD and that included bait and tackle. I didn't catch anything, but had a very relaxing time and an excellent meal from the small restaurant there.

I love walking around the numerous temples in Thailand. They are beautiful, the monks are friendly, and it is a great way to spend some time during the day. Some of these temples are in the city and some were a short drive away.

My lady is a civil engineer, so she took me to the local dam. We walked around, crossed over, and visited a small temple. This is one of the sights to see if you are visiting Khon Kaen, Thailand.

I usually spend my first and last night in Bangkok because of airplane connections. Not my favorite city (too congested, too dirty and too expensive) - but - here are some pictures nonetheless.

I never did find out the official name of this Khon Kaen restaurant - but it is a converted house. The food was good but I had more fun playing ping-pong with the kids.

I asked my fiance' to find a bigger place to stay this trip and she found a newer hotel called Piman Garden Residence. The rooms were very big for only 750 Baht - but - the housekeeping service wasn't the best.

A newer restaurant in Khon Kaen that became one of my favorites. Live music, great food, and reasonable prices. Another reason to come here is it hasn't really been discovered - so it is not very crowded.

After our Buddhist ceremony to bless our marriage, we went a short distance down a dirt road to some property that my wife's uncle owns. A small building to eat lunch in and a fish pond kept us busy until the wedding reception held that night.
