Views from Our Bangkok Apartment

First week in Bangkok, Thailand

Entrance to Old Bangkok. The man shown at left is the King of Thailand. They treat him like a god here. More on this topic later . . .


View of the Grand Palace from outside the wall. We didn't get in that day because we were wearing shorts — very disrespectful.


The next several shots feature the National Museum of Bangkok.





Pruning the elephant bush.

Communing with the elephant bush.




Zack and I went to a meditation lesson at a Buddhist monastery. This is my costume of peace.

The outer crust of this pizza is made of fish sticks.

Andrew's Visit 1

Andrew Maxwell came to visit for six days. I've got a bunch more pictures, but here are some to get you started.

Calatrava's footbridge to Puerto Madero

Chili beer. It's spicy. Sounds weird, but it's delicious.

We went to Colonia.

Notice the helmets.

There's a pirate museum in Colonia, which we never would have found if we hadn't rented motorscooters to go exploring. That's Blackbeard (Barbanegra) behind me. He's got my back.

Twilight on my balcony

Santa Barbara

Sunday, I went with José to Santa Barbara, thirty minutes outside the city. There we had an 'asado' (the famous Argentine style of BBQ) and relaxed for the day at the [amazing] house of a family friend.

Sao Paulo

What fruit is this? What time is it? Where am I?



Janet uses tarot cards to conclude that I am tall.
