An Evening at Victory Monument Circle, Bangkok
Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 1:32PM 
Victory Monument Circle is a major transportation hub in Bangkok for busses and the SkyTrain. Many people pass through the make-shift sidewalk market every day to and from their work.
There is a wet night market under the SkyTrain tracks where some small stalls are erected.
The commuters stop and buy food for dinner, like this tasty Thai dim sum, and are then lured into the other stalls for impulse items.
Biodegradable packaging for the tasty rice. As the sun sets the lights come on and the shadows grow longer.
Anything that is considered cool anywhere on earth finds its way to this corner of Bangkok and onto a card tables under the SkyTrain.
Are they real? Who knows.
A scarf or hanky, a blouse or . . .
. . . or something for the hair -- on the way home through Victory Monument Circle.
My other favorite thing about Victory Monument Circle is the Saxophone Blues Pub. The night's entertainment was roiling blues.
