Hello Bangkok and Terminal 21

After a very sad farewell to Malaysia, I am in Bangkok…

…staying with the lovely Chris…

…in his amazing flat…

….with its distinctive green balconies….

…high above the dens of iniquity.

Today I ventured across the road…

…to Terminal 21 a HUGE shopping mall.

As well as the usual ban…

…each floor is themed to be like a city. The postbox and telephone boxes for London were fair enough…

…but I found the London Underground themed toilets more than a little bizarre.

I found both the supermarket, and the bookshop, so time for some background reading (the late Peggy Jacob’s trained me well).

Return to Ronda

The last few months have been a bit rough on the health front, so it’s been a delight to be on my travels again. First stop was glorious Ronda, staying in a hotel with it’s own cinema. A fantastic pizza was had… ….Christmas lights were admired… …a sunset revelled in… …but Ronda is all about the gorge (and bullfighting, Hemlingway and Orson Welles)… …and the amazing bridges. And a very poetic carpark.

Corbigny past and present

Itˋs still too damn hot, but I managed a trip out to Corbigny, where there is a lovely toy shop… …interesting mediaeval bits and pieces… …fun shop signs… …a great place to drink coffee and watch the world go by… …suitably mad French cars… …and baffling street furniture… …and a chilling reminder that not that long ago, people like you and me were taken away and annihilated. Remember them, never forget, never again.

Austria at last

In a fit of madness… …I agreed to accompany my Aged Mother on a coach trip to Austria. After two days on the coach… …we have finally arrived <phew>.
