Overload - The Ultimate Collection

Over the years, I've captured and posted a few pics of overloaded trucks, but some guy on the web has put together the ultimate collection for countries throughout Asia.

 

 

 

 

 

 

King Of Fruits

It's Durian season again - seems like it was just last year...

 

 

 

Sunday Tapas

In case we ever forget what food looks like, here are pics from an afternoon out with our friends, Mark and Oil.

Technology is great.  I've started using Lazada (the Thai version of Amazon) to buy a few things for the house and kitchen. For the most part, I've been happy with the service and the convenience.

However, I had one issue where an Olive Oil atomizer was "delivered" but never showed up. It was only a few bucks and I didn't really need one, so I didn't bother to complain. What did bother me was when (through the power of data mining) an advertisement for the same atomizer was being promoted to me on my Reddit and Facebook feeds.

Back In Bangkok

Carl was back in Bangkok a few weeks ago.  We met up at Bullys with two of his former co-workers

 

Random video from later that evening - A sudden rain storm had turned Sukhumvit into a parking lot, so we took motorcycles instead of wasting an hour waiting in traffic.  I can imagine myself 90 years old and still taking a motorcycle taxi to avoid the post-rain Bangkok gridlock.

Hold The Krapow

Thais must think I'm crazy. Every time I order Krapom (Basil) Gai (Chicken), the first thing I do is remove the basil. There's also a mix of oyster sauce and Thai chilies, which are the parts I like, but Thai restaurants don't offer Spicy Oyster Sauce Chicken.

Thai Fire Drill

Everyone was accounted for.

For Rent - Versailles Comes To Korat

The exterior is rather unassuming aside from the two gold statues.  The interior, however, would make Marie Antoinette blush.
