ผู้หญิงสวยสองคน - Liverpool FC vs. Thailand, Bangkok Thailand

Pii Kom and I made it through over an hour in traffic to get in to Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok. Shot a few pictures but I didn’t bring a zoom lens, so most of my pictures are focused no farther than 10 feet or so. I was worried that the security might give me trouble bringing too much camera junk in with me. I figured that if the Prime Minister was going to be there, they might get a little antsy about too much electronics and what not.

Anyway, there wasn’t any security. They didn’t even check for tickets. I believe around 15 minutes into the game, they just opened the doors for anyone to come in to the stadium. I would guess with a full stadium it’s 60,000 people that came in to see this game. Liverpool was up 1-0 after 7 minutes but I give Thailand the win after they brought the game to a 1-1 draw. The rain held out until 10 minutes left in the game. And it poured. And we walked the long way around the stadium to get to our car. And it was still hot.

Some better video from takraw tonight.

Sepak Takraw, Bang Lamung, Thailand

Here is a nice shot from the other night at takraw. These guys were pretty dream team. But, I was pretty much the best white guy out there.

It’s a complete toss up, this Miike Snow album or Phoenix’s ‘Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix‘. I could ride out 2009 on these 2 albums alone. If Velveteen put out a new album right now, my head would explode.

And I leave you with nice picture of food taken by Lorraine. We tried to take the motobike over to Koh Larn which is a small island just off the gulf. We were denied for the noon ferry. As we were about to leave the pier we were treated to a nice moto-on-moto crash. I looked away at the last second but, Lorraine had to see how it ended. Jeb! Meh, we wound up at Jomtien Beach.

One year in Bang Lamung is coming up. We did a lot this year. In fact, if you take a closer look at the picture above, we were having lunch on this inauspicious occasion.
