Ko Kret or Kred island in the Chao Phraya River was created from the digging of a canal around a cape of the Chao Phraya River. In 1722, during the reign of King Thaisa of Ayutthaya, the area was originally called Khlong Lat Kret Noi which means a shortcut to Kret canal. Later, the river diverted, enlarging the canal and turning the bend in the river into an island.
Koh Kred is only accessible with a ferry and there no roads in the island.

I saw this dog in the boat waiting patiently for his master to take him somewhere and I thought I would share it with you.
