Beautiful Tohoku

Gets real cheesy near the end, as soon as the voiceover begins. But other than that, a nice tribute to the beautiful part of Japan I live in.



On second thought the whole thing's pretty cheesy. And you may have to go on youtube to watch it.

Literally, an ice cream sandwich.

And then we got into the cheesy Thai puns...




Trust me, Daniel Radcliffe gets his hair cut here.

Thailand travels - Bangkok and Sukhothai

Around Christmas I had the chance to take some holidays, and spent the most wonderful vacation in Thailand with Jackie. A very unique Christmas. Lots of gorgeous, interesting scenes, colour, craziness, and delicious food.

Our flight there gave us a snack basket - unexpectedly, the onion cookies were my favourite.

This coconut water (?) was actually delicious.

Ah tourists.

Kind of felt like we had stumbled into a small community's market - after just a few minutes in a taxi, we were the only foreigners in sight it seemed. We were entertained by some off-key karaoke singing in the park nearby while we ate our lunch.

Tiger man.

Giant reclining Buddha at Wat Pho.

Chaotic Khao San Road.


Mmmm maybe not a good sign.

We'll cook your street food AND do your laundry.

Christmas pad thai dinner.

Sweet accomodations.

Ruins of the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai.

The monks took just as many photos as us.

It's a Thai Iced Tea! And a goldfish table!!
