Ronald & Tony

The dragon of the canals

Back to start

Wide calm view: team, Mali and Chai walking along a public path beside the fictional temple boundary toward a low pedestrian bridge. A golden bell-shaped chedi behind the wall, distinct from Wat Arun's prang. No sacred climbing, no chase through worshippers. : Ronald: This tower is a different shape. Chai: That is a chedi. Temples can have different kinds of towers.

On public low concrete footbridge, Karen and Harly looking over railing into the narrow side canal. Chai points, Ronald and Mali beside him, Tony perched on Ronald's right shoulder. : Chai: That little branch is easy to miss.

Tony flies just outside bridge railing and peers under the deck. A corner of YELLOW canopy with RED triangular patch is visible beneath the bridge, matching exact earlier photo. Blue hull half hidden in shadow. : Tony: Yellow roof. Red patch!

Large reveal under bridge: empty blue cargo skiff has drifted sideways. Yellow canopy frame caught against underside of low bridge beam. Closed wooden chest intact inside. Chai watches from bank. No engine on cargo skiff, no people aboard. : Mali: That is ours! Chai: The canopy has caught under the bridge.
