At 6:30pm, just as the tropical sun dips into the Chao Phraya river, we languidly soak in the evening peace at Baan Rabiang Nam (or as Farang like to call it "River Tree House"). Soon, this lady rolls up in her sweet ride and sells bags of fluffy, sugary goodness for 20 baht each. We hear the clown horn honking just before we run to the river's edge and excitedly gesture with our fingers the magic number for the evening. Tonight, six. A long pole with six perfect bags of popcorn brimming from the net on the end extend up to our eager hands... We are joyful like little children in that moment and the popcorn lady smiles wide and everything is right with the world.
