It is a small coffee shop but cool at the rice field. The owner is smart to use the rice field as an attraction. It was pitty when we were there the field was not green.
The shop prepares variety coffee and tea to serve everyone. I smell coffee since opened the door.
I like the flower jelly very much.
My friend told that there are many coffee shops this style because people like to take photos and love the atmosphere. It is a good place to relax and charge ourselves from busy working days. click to see album
I gather all videos in this trip here. I am sorry for not Speak English in the videos but I am sure you can guess what was going on by my body language.

We left home in the morning and got to the destination at night. It was cold as usual in North Dakota this season. I put on my long warmer coat before walked out of Bismarck airport. We stopped for dinner at Texas Road House before headed to Bowman.We stayed at Bowman Lodge, a new hotel where last year was on construction. I like the hotel.

We were having breakfast at the hotel before we went to his mother's house. It was only 5 minutes drive. Snow covered everywhere but not much. I packed and wrapped gifts ready for Christmas day.After that just enjoyed myself walked around, taking photos and videos.
I talked about the weather today. It looked warm as sunny but it was not.
In the afternoon, we brought gifts to his aunt and stopped at a local restaurant "Windys pizza" to get lunch.
I love pizza from this restaurant.

Mery Christmas everyone, it was -12F, OMG! cold. I could not stay outside long. I forgot open fingers glove so I must took off and wear back the pair I wore very often to press on the camera shutter. The was not a sunny day then all we could see was dull tone. It looked similar to black and white shade, in my opinion.
You might think that I said the weather was too cold but why I was not stay inside the house. Yes, it was cold but I was always enjoy playing snow , taking photos and videos. However, I knew my limit. I had not stayed outside that long.
My favorite time today was unwrapping the gifts. Yeah!
We had lunch at his aunt's house. I normally do not take photos and videos when with relatives because I respect their privacy. A lot of food and having a good time once a year.

I love visiting his ranch but in winter is very struggling for me. Someday I remembered, it was windy but the temperature was warmer but that still killing me so bad with a cold wind. Today, the wind did not bother me at all but the temperature minus 16C (3F) which I could not handle well. I would walk around and take photos, recording videos longer but I really could not do. I think, if I did that I will change to a frozen pork in the wrap as we called in Thai " Nam Mooh"
Once, custom scan my hand and this time scan my laptop.
First stop at Minneapolis airport, we had lunch at Itasca Grille. I talked about the bookstore in the airport which displays a huge bear at the front. I was not sure if we were going to pass by.
We took the tramp to another building and walked to gate D5. He bought scratching games from the machine.
My funny story,
Last night we set the alarm at 4am and this morning we got up at 2am because I forgot to change the time on my cell phone. We had a problem which could not go back to sleep again so we were tired along the way until got home.
We left Sattaheep and headed to Mae Rampueng beach, Rayong. I reserved a resort by phone last night. A friend of mine will come and meet us at the resort.
We bought fresh pineapple which selling on our way to Rayong
Here we were. Resort close to the beach as a little walk.
There was a restaurant at the beach area where was resort own.
The tiny Thai style house with 2 bedrooms air condition, one bath, TV, and refrigerators each room.
My friend said that this resort name changed. It might be sold to a new owner.
The room was OK but a lot of dust on the TV shelf.
For overall, I like the place as there were many trees and felt like home.
Our friend came with stream corn and sweet rice in bamboo.
She sells them and made sweet rice in bamboo.
She also brought Thai custard cake which called " Khanom Krog" in Thai.
I have not eaten this for many years
Dinner at "Pha Ya seafood (aunty Ya seafood)", by the beach. All fresh seafood dishes, hot and spicy.
We went to street market at night.
My husband and I were swimming on the next morning at 7am.
I think because it was too early for other people that good as we stayed in a private beach.
I missed these beach chairs and umbrellas which I have not seen in the USA.
What I knew is everyone in the USA carries their own chairs, towels, tents...etc.
Once, we were in Miami, beach chairs provided by the hotel where we stayed no charge for
the guests. However, another trip at Myrtle Beach, the beach chair available for rent.
I rented a black donut ring which was the inside truck tire swim in the beach 50 bath each.
We were swiming about an hour and get back to get ready for the next destination.
Our friend will take us to "Na Cafe" coffee shop.
This dog came to us since last night we got here and stayed around. I fed him/her food.
I had been living in Bangkok for many years and travel passed by this place also very day when I was a college student, but I did not have a chance to visit. It is on Phayathai road where Phayathai BTS station is the nearest and takes a bit walk to get here. On that day, we stayed at Changwattana road so we took a taxi van on the Express-way, got off at Victory monument and walked for few miles. The houses are old which some house not allowed to touch on the art because of delicate and also could not take photos and video inside.
I like the place very much as I felt like home. Finally, I have been here.
