then on to the show, no entrance fee, just walk in,
I was surprised how big some of the animals were,
Diana was surprised as well and more than a little nervous as she kept asking 'do they bite?' the only thing I could think of saying was that they had a very hard lick!
Diana was by now starting to be a bit more confidant,
and was happy to stand with one behind her,
and this is how to get one home if you buy one,
Diana was all ohs and ah's as she watched this one suckling,
'why does everyone call me big ears?'
Diana really confident now,
one of the prize winners, all of these here are a breed called Brahman, originally from India this medium size breed has been well received throughout the world, bulls will generally weigh from 1600 to 2200 pounds and cows from 1000 to 1400 pounds in average condition, if you are interested look here for the SK Pattaya Ranch or here for the Thai Brahman Breeders Association and other links to Thai Cowboy sites,
by now Diana had found the shop section of the show, clothes first,
then the food stalls,
and more clothes,
and more food!
I noticed that the prices here were very competitive, the food sticks normally cost 10 - 15 baht, but only 5 baht here, also sunglasses 50 baht a pair, normally in town 100 baht+,
and lots of stuff to keep the kids amused, slot car racing,
train rides and a bouncy castle,
and a pool with paddle boats,
this is the main stage being made ready for the evenings concert,
although there was a Cowboys and Indian theme there were no horses, except these wooden rocking horses, naturally Diana wanted one!
so many to chose from it was at this time we bumped into Alan, Nok and their son Jenson, they have just returned from the UK and says Hi to everyone that knows them,
there were so many 'cowboy shops' here and a huskie,
also a small section selling plants, in this case roses, I have never had much luck with them over here, I am guessing but I think the cut roses we buy here are grown up North where it is a bit cooler,
also there were a few of these plants, I do not know what they are called, but the ones we have do not have this bright red colour,
