Last week, I went to Ayutthaya to visited my grandfather. This is my first time that I went to a countryside since coronavirus has became, so excited. When I was young, I come here every songkran day. I have not gone there for a few year. Everything changes, for example, water level in Pasak River has decreased dramatically and this house was renovated. If I want to have some rest, I will go a countryside or a place is full of nature, because it’s peaceful and some tree make me relax.

My family tried to set fire to a charcoal stove for grilled shrimp. My mother and I was making seafood sauce, so my father and my elder brother was grilling some shrimp that my mother bought from a market in Bangkok. Once everything was done, we enjoy eating. And then I was taken a tour vegetable garden by my dad. He so proud to present a very big lime it’s green but have shape like a lemon and I pretend interested. We slept in front of the house for an hour. By the way, let’s go to next station! We was going to nearby relative’s house. On the way, we stopped by to buy fried bananas. It is very delicious and cheaper than in Bangkok. There are many buildings along the road, my aunt said that grandfather shouldn’t be there because it’s dangerous. When we arrived at the relative’s house, we had conversations together. So, it’s time to go home. On the way, we have visited at Cake Ban Suan, where is have a lot of food and dessert. I bought cakes and Thai cotton candy burrito pancake.

I’m glad to see my grandfather who I didn’t see for a long time. And I’m so happy to do activities for that day.
