Songkran
 May 27, 2002

Monks in Songkhla having fun during Songkran.

Thai float
 May 13, 2002

In April, Bangkok had one of its first Western-style parades. Here is a truck that pulled one of the floats.

Watertower delivery
 May 6, 2002

Ok. You need a watertower and it's Songkran, the heaviest traffic time of the year in Thailand. So many die on the roads they call it "Car-mageddon." But that doesn't stop the water tower delivery guys. They're out on the roads in full force. I saw four such watertowers being moved while driving to the south of Thailand on Songkran. This is a montage of a single truck. I also like how the truck doesn't have a license plate.

Alternative medicine
 April 22, 2002

Graham Ross sent these pics of some "alternative medicine" at Chiang Dao near the temple cave about 50 km north of Chiang Mai.

Billion Million company
 April 1, 2002

Seeing this company's name was one of the fond, funny memories I have of first coming to Thailand. It's a good luck Chinese name like "Lucky Fortune." Billion Million supply bathroom equipment--I was hoping no one would enter the bathroon as I was taking photos in the stall. I wonder if Billion Million ever made their first billion million. I always thought it would funny to start a company called Trillion Billion just to top them.
