Moon tonight - Last day of Chinese New Year

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

I forever see a rabbit in the moon, but not so much using a pestle, I see more of a profile. Year of The Water Rabbit. ..and The Moon affects The Tides..

..not necessarily Thai or Chinese but Japanese in this case:

Rabbits by Mori Kansai, 1881

...
There is an island in Japan, within The Seto Inland sea, called Usagi-shima, or, Okunoshima.."Rabbit Island"..where a thousand feral European rabbits live amongst the ruins of WWII. There are quite a few local visitors, and a handful of megaphoned Chinese tour groups. The island is scenic and quite large, and effectively uninhabited.

God Bless The Rabbits!

('Tone-sai'. Khmer for Rabbit.)

And learn a little 'Chinese':

Looks like the moon was the inspiration for the Yin-yang symbol … who’s with me?
