A Few More Pictures

Still having difficulty finding time to write anything substantial. You may find this hard to believe considereing we are still in the first month of what really amounts to a six month vacation. We have been moving at a ridiculous pace though, having been afixed to a few tours. It turns out that the people here want the absolute most for their money so any tour that they sign up for must squeeze the most out of every day. We have been waking before 7 am each day and hitting sites until dark. Those of you that know our travel habits may find this difficult to understand, but this has all been a paid-for tour with family. We never even had Singapore on our radar yet we spent a few days there with the group, a real bonus.
 I have a feeling that the style in which we have been rolling will be in direct contradiction to that that we find ourselves in once we separate from the family. I have to admit that while tours may not be my method of choice we have been treated to some great sites we would have missed anew d the convenience cannot be overstated. I am ready to go out on our own but will miss a part of this easy life. When waking up as early as you would have for work is your biggest problem, it's safe to say that life is pretty good.
We are in Pattaya, Thailand at the moment but heading to Bangkok at 7am tomorrow morning. After a few days there, we will be on our own. The trip will take a turn there though the direction cannot be clear. Like this trip in general we will just have to see how it plays out.

A few more pictures:

A tour-mate parasailing mere minutes before she puked in a bag on a boat.

Temple in Singapore.

Guess which ones are transexuals.

If you said all of them, you are correct.



Animal shows seem to be a lot of what the tourist industry in Thailand is about. At least these animals aren't trying to seduce 60 year-old white men.
