1440h (CNX TIME)
The biggest monkey of the school aka Mr Big riding on his bicycle. The close proximity of the performance makes it value for money compared to animal shows at our zoo. We left at about 1430h to the Home Industries to spend the tourist dollar.

First stop, Thepprasit Honey wholesale or factory...whatever..
They taught us how to differentiate real from processed honey and allowed us to taste all the types of honey products they have. From honey drink, bee pollen and royal jelly.
|
The salesman spoke to us in this small room which was decorated with mail orders from all over the world and
certifications etc.
There were also some photos on the collection of honey and bee pollen. We ended up getting one of each, honey, bee pollen and royal jelly. Spent a total of 4700 baht, about SGD250. Till now, I am still drinking the honey and bee pollen. Seems not bad. Left about 1540hrs to the Silver Processing Factory...
