Bangkok dangerous?
Well it appears I chose the wrong week for my first visit to Bangkok, or maybe the right one depending on your point of view. The red t-shirt protestors are slowly taking over the city, huge hyper-malls have closed their doors for the week, shopping is difficult, which, sadly, is why I came. More shortly, with pictures.

End of term and holidays
Well the end of another long term and boy do I need a break.
We were going to catch a helicopter to the north east of the island, sadly that changed to a small plane, then the small plane decided it was going to go a day earlier than planned (while we are still working), because the day we were supposed to go, is good Friday, and the pilot decided that being a Buddhist, he'd like to celebrate Easter. We only bought the tickets a week ago, and obviously good Friday was decided at the last minute.
I lost my cool, as you can imagine.
So no plane trip to the North East. A bus journey to the beach for a bit of RnR before jetting off to Bangkok next Wednesday. Really looking forward to the next two weeks off.
I may blog from Bangkok depending on whether I've got anything to say or not.
Will be putting cruisers level 5 in the queue before jetting off, and upon my return I'll have a few days more training before I can get in my recently acquired Tengu.
