And a mermaid! Is she topless?

 

Thanks Tom!

Great photos Tom – Certainly brings back memories of my trip to Songkhla in 2009.

 

 

Dougie, the mermaid certainly is topless

 

 

And I couldn't help myself

 

 

The is The Great Serpent Nag – The people of Southern Thailand believe Nag sprays divine water so as to make people feel fresh and happy, as well as purifying the blemishes which occur within our minds and bodies.

 

 

My wife comes from Songkhla and when she needed to refresh the sign on her shop here in Australia last year she chose Nag as her theme for the signs and her business cards.

 

 

And up at the Royal Pagoda where this little guy hangs out

 

 

They have a sign which says it all !
