Nakhon Phenom Glistening white jewel nestled Into an emerald necklace, Strung upon the Mekong River. The mountains of Laos beckon from The opposite bank. The Thai are beautiful people, Friendly and happy, yet The tensions of war linger, Watching from the jungle. In the midst of the city, the Blue and gold lace of A Buddhist temple Adds the only color to A city of whitewashed buildings. Welcome to Nakhon Phenom. Dallas D'Angelo-Gary 08

Reminds me of the suspicion of the Thai people when I visited much of the country in '78. The tension of war was even greater then--GI welcome, tourist or CIA?

Great imagery.

Beautiful post-card picturesque, Dallas... and yes, you make me wish I was there to experience those nerve-jangling frissons of tension and delight! Love the way you combine geography with artistic and cultural details. xx

Sounds beautiful Dallas. A little tragic too; but I feel like I'm in the jungle watching and sensing all this. Nicely done.
