A Sight for Sore Eyes !


Monkey mountain, south Thailand, January 2013.

It was here on Monkey Mountain carrying an orange bag full of donated sunglasses and prescription glasses from Dr.Michael Stoma, Mallorca, that I encountered a Buddhist monk (dodging hundreds of wild monkeys) who were very interested in the orange bag.

In my pigeon English I tried to explain why? Where? and how? I think he eventually understood and even tried several pairs on.


It gave me a great sense of fulfilment in doing this, and wish for some people they will benefit from the glasses, and maybe one day they shall remember a foreign lady who came from nowhere with a bag of glasses.
