I like walking around my campus at sunset because I can see after school activities in a nice light just as it’s getting cooler.

ICONSIAM is a huge mall and condo development on the banks of the Chao Phraya river that winds through the heart of Bangkok. It is a true testament to Thai consumerism and apparently cost a billion and a half USD. It’s huge and sleek and expensive, and it’s a great place to be a tourist and escape the heat.
Breakfast happens around 8:00 AM. The pen on the far side of the fence houses Papa Deng (Tony). Mama Deng’s name is Jona/Jonah. In typical Thai fashion, some of her siblings/half siblings are also named after pork dishes, Moo Wan (sweet pork) and Moo Toon (stewed pork).
The most restful soundtrack via Moo Deng’s new webcam:
Max’s auntie took us to a Korean BBQ buffet near her office in Sukhumvit and it’s basically the best yakiniku I’ve had in Thailand. For 500 baht ($15 US), you get the higher tier plan with beef and seafood, and the waitress comes to grill everything for you. This is the second time we’ve been there, and we’ll probably try to make it there whenever we’re on an extended Bangkok trip.
It’s taking him more than a day and a half to get back home due to multiple Delta delays. Death by boredom, the opposite of Thai transportation!
We sent Max off today with a good family friend who’s also living in the same area of the Pacific Northwest. It was great having him back for a month and a half after such a long time. I’m straight back into the thick of it here. but I’ll be posting memories from his visit for a while.
This capy was so chill and friendly. He came out of the water and hung with us to munch after I shot this. We gave him all the long grass we had and then went and got him more, because he was an absolute eating machine.
I took Max along on a (university business) road trip with my two pals. It was epic.
