The Delmarva Circumference has been on my bucket list since I was young. Toni and I wanted to take "Moments in Time" around the Delmarva Peninsula for quite some time but schedules and weather did not permit us. Finally, a weather window opened in late September, so Toni and I slipped the lines and started our odyssey. It took us about 7.5 days and about 500 miles.

I thought tea belonged in a cup. Then I found a night market in Chiang Mai serving a salad made from fermented tea leaves. The dish is called laphet thoke and comes from Myanmar, where fermented tea leaves have been eaten for centuries and traditionally shared with guests as a sign of hospitality. Next to it was banana flower salad a dish popular across Southeast Asia. The banana blossom is sliced into thin strips and mixed with herbs, lime, chili and peanuts, giving it a crunchy texture somewhere between cabbage and artichoke. Salty, bitter, sour, crunchy, floral nothing tasted the way I expected. This is what I love about night markets in Asia. Not the “top 10 foods”. The feeling that there are still things in the world you’ve never even imagined eating. 📍I’ve been collecting places like this all over Chiang Mai. The guide is almost ready follow if you want the first drop. A cinematic night market scene in Chiang Mai, Thailand featuring banana flower salad and fermented tea leaf salad being prepared and served under glowing lanterns at a local street food stall.

The DH550 is a radius chine plywood catamaran designed by Dudley Dix and Philip Harvey. This video shows the water flow between the hulls, as seen from one of the escape hatches under the bridgedeck.
