Songkran, Thailand's New Year, is celebrated with water - and lots of it. In Krabi, pick-up trucks packed with people and barrels of water drive, seeking to cleanse (read: soak) passersby. No one is safe. Warm water is refreshing and welcome, but the iced variety shocks and stings!Our guest house in Krabi had buckets of water and ice out all day so its staff and the farangs (foreigners) could get into the action.www.uncorneredmarket.com/2007/04/andaman-beach-scene/

Fish Market in Krabi
The night market in Krabi had some of the best food we tasted in all of Thailand. The curry stands would offer up to 20 types of curry with various kinds of meat, seafood and vegetables. A tray of vegetables - long beans, cucumbers, various herbs - would be waiting at the table with nam prik dipping sauce and a glass of ice and a pitcher of water. A perfect and light orchestration of tastes.We drank the water and ate the greens repeatedly without any tummy troubles. And, a plate with rice and two curries cost less than $1.Read more about Krabi's cheap and divine eats.

Up Close and Personal
Roti (a Malaysian crepe/flatbread) and curry restaurants in Krabi quickly became a favorite.This young girl served up perfect roti throughout the day, using a preparation technique of flattening the dough, twirling it into a coil. After frying the dough, she pounded the result in a towel to remove the excess oil and separate it into crunchy, flaky pieces. The sweet roti, doused in condensed milk, was divine.www.uncorneredmarket.com/2007/05/krabis-cheap-and-divine-...

This soup stand in Krabi had the best and most numerous number of condiments on the table. There were some of the standard condiments, like cucumber, long beans and herbs, but this stand also had morning glory in coconut milk, pickled cabbage, cucumber and onion salad, asian eggplant and more herbs we didn't recognize. The soup - Kanom Jeen - is a yellow spicy curry made from fish with fresh vermicelli was perfect with a dollop of sweet peanut soup on top and piled high with condiments. For 10 Baht ($0.30), it was a steal. We became regulars.
