The first two shots here are from a performance at our school.  The next two photos are from a school trip on a barge down the Chao Praya river with Isabel's class.  She is pictured here with some good friends.

Silk worms






Silkworm cocoons - they are collected and boiled.  They then pull strands (a single strand can be 3-miles long!).  They dye the strands beautiful colours and weave the famous, gorgeous Thai Silk!  

C J was not happy to see one of his creatures being harmed.... at least they eat the worms for snacks after they are boiled!

Always learning something new ........
