Not much to say here, went in, sweated, took pictures, sweated some more, took more pictures, still sweating, headed for the airport. Still sweating. It was humid this weekend, for sure! How badly? I have salt stains on my shirt and shorts. On Saturday I drank 6 litres of water and was still peeing salt pellets. It was hot! But I did make it back to KL safely. Not without incident, of course. This one is totally stupid. I was going through immigration and after waiting for a half hour in the slowest line, I got up to the girl and tossed my passport with all the information (ticket and departure forms) in it on to the counter. She looked at me and said that was very rude. She then smiled and had me hauled over to the side for 'questioning' by her boss. I was still sweating, so I really wasn't in much of a placatory mood, so when her boss asked me what the problem was, I showed her what I did, and said to watch her, she is also the slowest moving lineup there, out of 6 or 7 that were going. And then I said that she was just giving me a hassle, and I didn't appreciate it. Actually, I passed through this hoop without incident. And then I headed on to my airplane. I was actually going to say I wanted to talk to this lady's manager, but then I remembered I was in Thailand, they had monks, and I remembered what they did to monks, so I shut up and moved on. See, getting smarter by the day, aren't I?
My Last day in Thailand. Off to the Grand Palace we go!
And old BMW still in daily use
Now is this truth in advertising? For Thailand, definitely!
Tandoori chicken and garlic nan (bread)
My first glimpse of the palace, the roof is apparently real gold
The belfry
Bell in the belfry
