Hof Art Now

The Bangkok traffic hasn't got any better. This taxi managed to block the five lane road outside the hotel for five minutes with a very ill timed U-turn. 

We spent yesterday with local boy Jim so we took in a few more unusual sights. Including a detor through this Japanese shopping mall. 

Then a stop off at a small coffee shop that serves Soya milk. 

We spent most of the afternoon checking out an indie Art gallery called Hof Art Now.

We got chatting to one of the curators of the gallery, for anyone who does a bit of art and goes to indie galleries in far off lands this is a surprisingly normal occurrence. After checking out some of the interesting bits in the gallery and the artsy area around the gallery we headed off for a chill out by the pool.

We didn't actually go in the pool due to the weather, see rain clouds behind by very wooden pose in the photo underneath. We chatted to some of Jim's friends, including C who it was great to meet again. As usual C cooked us some amazing food.

 For all of our relatives concerned re: Jim's health hopefully this picture demonstrates his good heath and cheer. Also not the steak promotion behind his head, £2 for a steak dinner!

We have just spent another pleasant day today with Jim checking out the Thailand happiness festival, very happy, and drinking more coffee.

Tomorrow Vietnam.
