Street life - Bangkok, Thailand

Tuk tuks - street side food vendors -  a memorial shrine to the Erawan bombing that killed 20 people on August 17th - a restored VW van makes an instant clothing outlet - etiquette signs posted inside a tuk tuk that we took - the constant traffic - the next generation.

Thai kick boxing - Thailand

Day 1 of kick boxing in Thailand.

Wat Phra Kaeo and the Grand Palace - Bangkok, Thailand

Temples, statues, figurines - gold leaf, gold tiles, gold paint - incense, flowers, candles - monks, offerings, prayers. This amazing complex is incomprehensible.

Taipei, Taiwan

Taipei 101 [at 101 stories high] towers head and shoulders above the typical 10 storey buildings in the city core. 

Street life in the Ximen area of Taipei - elevated roadways and too many scooters - but still you have to LOVE it.

'The Girl with the Yellow Umbrella'

National Performing Arts Center - Taipei, Taiwan

National Performing Arts Center's West Gate and garden, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall with a military guard, National Concert Hall and reflecting pond, and Jane standing on a tranquil bridge. Overall this is a very large and architecturally beautiful complex of buildings and gardens.
