Little Lion City

This is year PC training is in Sing Buri, Thailand. This is how you write Sing Buri in Thai, สิงห์บุรี. Sing Buri comes from the Sanskrit words for lion, Singh and town, Puri.  Around 20,000 people live in Sing Buri. As the travel blog, Planet Ware puts it, “Singburi, on the right side of the Menam Chao Phraya River , 74 miles north of Bangkok in the middle of the central plain of Thailand with its endless rice fields, is the junction of several important roads. The town itself has no interesting sights.” Below is a picture on an alligator entering someone’s home in Sing Buri.

And yet, I can’t wait to call Sing Buri home.
