Something else to do?

NOTE -- What do you do all day? is a question that frequently arises on the boards. Christianpfc, Vinapu and Divine Madman are among those who have recently contributed answers. Their initial destinations can turn out to be a stepping off point for unplanned additional adventures as they allow themselves to get lost en route back and discover other experiences along the way. So here's one more potential activity that may tempt us to go astray.

Culture Minister Vira Rojpojchanarat on Wednesday visited Thailand’s National Museum in Bangkok to observe the preservation process for the ancient cannon unearthed from beneath Sanam Luang last weekend.

 

The 3-metre gun was used in war during the early Rattanakosin era.

 

Museum director Nitaya Kanokmongkol said |that the process of preservation could take months, and visitors will be able to get a close-up look at how it’s done.
