Hui-chen and I love to shop, and when we travel we love to shop even more!  We’ll show you one of our favorite shops and what you can expect to find there.

But, we have to get there first.  We’ll take a walk and look at the shops along the way.

Khonkaen has a market that is not visible from any street.  If you don’t know where this market is, you may never end up visiting it.

The Hidden Market

The Hidden Market is found between blocks, in an area between the buildings.  I had been to Khonkaen a dozen times before I stumbled across it.

Factory Visit and Shopping in Phon

Hui-chen and I took the bus from Khonkaen down to Muang Phon, were our friend Mr. Somkhit (introduced in this article) has his factory.  On the way down our bus was pulled over by Thai Highway Police.  This shot, taken through the windshield of the bus, shows the bus driver returning to the bus.  As far as I can tell, no fine or warning was issued.  Apparently the Highway Police needed to inform the driver of something, but I do not know what.

Voucher Fever

Recently, the Taiwanese government gave NT$3,600 worth of shopping vouchers to citizens and qualified residents. While my own personal experience with receiving the vouchers was rather unremarkable (with only 2 people saying anything to me while I was in line, and both times in “English”), there have been several noteworthy events in the news concerning the vouchers. Here is a list of them:

Before I forget, my Nikon D-80 just came back from the shop on Thursday, and all seems very good.  I used it to take the shots for the Ghost Month piece over the weekend.

In our last installment, I left you with this photo:
