Here is a selection of photos from the Thailand trip. Most of them are from the fieldwork portion of the trip, which lasted from May 28-June 6. We stayed on the island of Ko Lanta Yai in Krabi Province.
I am not going to meticulously order these, so if the picture I provide is a little jumbled, I apologize. The field work we did was extremely interesting and I got to meet a lot of people, poke around their homes, go underneath their hotels, and ask people questions about their toilets. All in all, it was super fun.
This is the Reclining Buddha at Wat Po. It is the largest reclining Buddha is Thailand.
This is the Village Headman. He met him at the recycling facility and he then invited us to his house so we could look at the village well that is in his backyard.
These are your two main beer choices in Thailand, Chang and Sing-ha.
No, this isn't a Thai military officer. It's just a hired hand from the village to look important outside a new resort compound. It was too bad they had no idea all the photos we were taking were for the purpose of documenting unsustainable design. Ha ha ha...
We talked to people at the Elephant Trekking place. The elephants looked bored.
Powerlines sure do make that beach look darn purty!
Emperor Hirohito from Japan showed up on campus one day (two people to the right of the first white pagoda thingy). There were many dignitaries in Bangkok last week for the King's celebration commemorating 60 years on the throne of Thailand.
Here are five of the ten Thai students whose we really depended on to understand anything on the trip.
