I hope you enjoyed looking at my photos. I took more than this, but I came back from Thailand one month ago, so I think it`s time for my blog to return to Japanese themes now.
This photo is of a girl in Chiang-Mai & singing birds in wooden cages.

The bunches of roses on the left are 60 baht - only 150 yen ($1.75)!!! The orchids on the right are only 50 baht (125 yen / $1.50) for THREE! Wow! Can you believe it?

By chance, I was in Bangkok at the same time as the opening night of this exhibition, so I could attend.
I met the charming gallery director, who showed me around (unfortunately I forget her name) & we chatted about art, photography, Japan & many other things. She`s an intelligent & interesting lady, & her English is excellent.
There are lots of interesting art galleries in Bangkok, but unfortunately I didn`t have time to visit many this trip.
Have you been to an art exhibition recently? How was it?

2 days before my friend Paul`s wedding, he had a bachelor party. Of course it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, this heavily censored photo is all that I can show you...
Use your imagination!

This restaurant has a great view, doesn`t it? On the left you can see the Grand Palace, & on the right, Wat (temple) Arun.
As a gift, A gave me a t-shirt with a map of Thailand on it.
Her mother gave me a pair of shorts.
I wish there were restaurants like this around here.

Another kind of ferry travels along the main canals of Bangkok. It`s very handy for avoiding traffic jams on the roads but it`s difficult to find if you`re not a local. Also it`s noisy, dirty, smelly, & it`s a challenge to get on & off (look at the photos above). I love it!

A great place to do this is around Chinatown. I took these photos of old colonial-style buildings there. Many are in bad condition & eventually I think they will disappear from Bangkok. It`s a shame.
Do you like this style of architecture?

I visited the Bangkok General Post Office, & was happy to see that they had a `Philatelic (stamp collectors`) Section`. There were LOTS of beautiful stamp sets to choose from - fantastic! I bought lots of different kinds, & put them on packages, letters & postcards for my family & friends.
It took time but it was fun & I felt happy & satisfied.
The counter clerk who served me didn`t look happy though. I felt sorry for him [kowaisou] - he didn`t want to add up the price of all the various stamps on my boxes. So I did it for him, & he accepted my figures without checking - haha!
Afterwards I thanked him deeply: "Thankyou very much - the people who get these boxes and stamps will be so happy - really! Thankyou."
Then he smiled & I felt happy again.
