Cultural Night: Thailand
Date: 2/4/18
Food: Leftover's from Josh's Major Promotion from Phada's in Misawa. We had fried rice, sweet and sour beef, and pad thai. I made some mango sticky rice http://allrecipes.com/recipe/150313/thai-sweet-sticky-rice-with-mango-khao-neeo-mamuang/
Music: My favorite part of the night. I found a YouTube channel of authentic Thai music
Flag and Geography: The kids enjoy coloring the flag of each country. I use: http://www.crayola.com/free-coloring-pages/print/thailand-coloring-page/. It is also fun to look at a map of the world so that we can see where the county is in relation to where we are now (Japan.)
Animals: Our google search taught us that Thailand is full of tigers, elephants, many types of primates, etc.
Language: https://www.loecsen.com/en/learn-thai
Architecture: I enjoy looking at the architecture of the country. Having seen some areas of Japan and Korea now in Asia, I am fascinated with the shape and style of the roofs.

| I love the colors in this image and the detail of the roof. Lots of turrets were pictures in the architecture. |
Art: The art seems to be characterized by images of their gods, largely Buddist and Hindu. The only one I am really familiar is Ganesh, the elephant God.
