Morning Market, Vientiane
The morning market in Laos has been replaced by a multi-story shopping mall… Vientiane has been hugely developed in the seven years I’ve been travelling there. The best way to describe it is as a medium-size Thai city with more third-world bright color gaudiness and even more garbage on the streets.
We stopped by a coffee shop where the waitresses wore silk skirts and platform shoes.
We sat at a really cool coffee bean-filled table.
Then we got photobombed by an angry old man.
Sarakham Music
Taro came over a few weeks ago, and we stopped by a recently-opened music shop while the kids were at Tae Kwon Do. It’s the largest music store in Sarakham with possibly legit big brand stock, and also has 5 studio rooms in the back. The owner is super-friendly and let Taro try out the gaudiest German electric I’ve ever seen.

Thai Jaeger – The Golden Buddha Mech
Somewhere between the Chiang Yuen and Sam Sung districts on a two-lane highway lined with rice paddies and stands of vines and overgrowth, there is a secret Jaeger base under construction.
When completed, this powerful addition to the Pacific Rim forces will boast three powerful weapons to fight the scourge of Kaijus: Tree Falling in Forest Kick, Cosmic Bodhisattva Blast, and Spinning Lotus Beam.

Mina’s money roll
A few weeks ago, I spent an afternoon collecting money from students for textbooks and I used spare moments in between to create this:
Of course, it was immediately confiscated by the little boss:
She said I better have her money, “rain, shine, or snow.”
