Jim Thompson House

January 26, 2011  afternoon

This afternoon we visited the Jim Thompson house.  He was an American who helped revitalize the Thai silk industry.  This home has been turned into a museum.  We could not take pictures in the house but I have great shots of the garden.


Beautiful water lilies

This is a turtle in one of the ponds. 




Buddha that head was cut off by the Burmese Army.  They wanted to know if this Buddha had gold in it.  I believe this Buddha is from the 17th century.
