On the fourth day of the big Temple Fair in Samut Prakan, they always hold boat races on the Chao Phraya River in front of Phra Samut Chedi. They also hold other activities and competitions for the local people.
This is a competition for thatching using leaves from the nipa palm tree.
This is the popular Muay Talay (sea boxing). The loser is the person who falls into the water first.
In this competition, the winner is the person who catches the most crabs without getting bitten.
This is the messiest of the competitions. Here the winner is the person that manages to eat all of the cockles (hoi kraeng) the quickest. They look pretty raw to me!
