Living with Water-Ampawa, Sumutsongkram

Few years ago around Songran festival, A freind of mine did a project here and invited us to join him to the annual fair including exhibition of what he'd been working. We spent the day time walking along the canal, taking picture and eating (a lot, on that time it's the season for river shrimps and Lychee ...yummy!) Some houses were left since lots of owners move to live the "modern life" in land, only few left. In the past, here used to be a very lively floating market but since the condition of living was changed with the new development that put priority on road systems than canal, life's gone. So it need to re-position itself to the modern life to live its unique identity which is better than moaning for the good old day that never come back.
