Hello everyoneToday at noon my husband had to make a financial transaction at the bank located inside the Central Department Store. As always, I followed my husband. After finishing business, we stopped for lunch at Fuji, a Japanese restaurant that we love but haven't eaten at in a long time since my husband became ill earlier this year. We could see the difference when we walked into the shop because the shop had completely renovated it. For me, I like both the old and the new.The interior of the shop is decorated in cream tones with green chairs. The ceiling is decorated with yellow round lanterns. Increase relaxation Along the walls are pictures of beautiful tourist attractions in Japan to symbolize Japaneseness. I really like them, especially the pictures of colorful flower fields. It reminds me of Japan which my husband and I visited many years ago. And haven't had a chance to go back yet. We have plans to travel to Japan again but will have to wait for the money to be ready because it is a trip that costs a lot of money for us.When I ordered my food, while I waited I looked around. The shop is interested in this new change and then some robots deliver food to different tables. Fuji Restaurant has now been using food delivery robots within the restaurant for a while.![IMG_20240726_132532.jpg](

Hello everyoneThis afternoon, I planned to visit the "Great Shot Bar," a bar and café located within the Foto Hotel. Despite its proximity—only 12 kilometers away on Koh Siray—I had never ventured to the sea zone on the Siray Island side. The journey required navigating a narrow alley, and without a map, finding the way would be nearly impossible.The "Great Shot Bar" was renowned for its vibrant red tones and stunning sea views. I discovered this gem on TikTok, the go-to app for most Thais these days, especially for uncovering trendy spots and hidden treasures.As I set out on my adventure, the anticipation built with each kilometer. I wound through the small alleyways, the twists and turns adding an element of mystery to my journey. The air grew saltier and fresher, a clear sign I was nearing the coast.When I finally arrived, the sight took my breath away. The Foto Hotel, home to the "Great Shot Bar," welcomed me with its chic, gray-toned exterior. Even if you weren't staying at the hotel, you could still enjoy a meal or drink at the bar. This inclusivity added to the allure of the place, making it accessible to locals and travelers alike.The hotel itself was a haven for photography enthusiasts. Its décor featured chic corners and numerous angles perfect for capturing the moment. The check-in counter area was particularly eye-catching, adorned with black-and-white pictures and vintage cameras. A black-and-white checked teddy bear, the hotel's signature mascot, added a touch of whimsy to the sophisticated setting.![IMG_20240724_150015.jpg](

Hello everyoneLast July 20-21 marked a significant period for Buddhists as they observed Asahna Bucha Day and the beginning of Buddhist Lent. Asarnha Bucha Day commemorates the Lord Buddha's first sermon, a pivotal event in Buddhist history. The following day, Buddhist Lent. During this time, Buddhist monks dwell permanently for three months, coinciding with the rainy season. This period is dedicated to deepening their Dhamma practice, studying the Dhamma and Vinaya, and preparing to teach and ordain new monks at the end of the Lent.Buddhist Lent is also a time when laypeople participate actively in religious activities. One of the most significant traditions is offering Buddhist Lent candles to temples. These candles symbolize the light of wisdom and are used by monks during their meditative and devotional practices.*During this time, many Buddhists bring Buddhist Lent candles to offer at the temple. Once the consecration ceremony is completed, the candles are placed at designated locations around the temple grounds and lit at dusk. The sight of numerous candles illuminating the temple at dusk creates a beautiful and unusual picture. This may be the first temple where so many Buddhist Lent candles are placed and lit thr

Hello everyoneToday, in the late morning, after a thorough cleaning of my house, I decided to treat myself to a breakfast outing. My destination was Booktree Library & Café, a quaint spot near my home that I had discovered a month ago. Initially, I had stumbled upon it with no particular expectations, simply intrigued by the photos on various web pages that suggested it was just another ordinary book café.But oh, how wrong I was. From the moment I stepped inside, I was instantly captivated. The café wasn’t merely a place to grab a coffee and a quick read.

The café's charm was irresistible, and I was eager to capture the serene morning atmosphere. The early hour was a strategic choice; the café was still relatively empty,
