Exhibit caption from Siam Ocean World, an aquarium with nearly as many snack bars as exhibits.

Yep, they provide glass-bottom boat tours in one of the fish tanks.

Also in Ocean World, a spa tub full of gara providing the creepiest pedicure ever.  When I paid my admission I did not opt for this extra, but they gave me a ticket anyway.

Me in a canal boat, scowling because…

…this dude is supposed to be hoisting the plastic gunwale to prevent dysentery- and ameoba-infected water from splashing in my face, but he’s spacing out and not doing his job.

There was no context to tell me if the penny-farthing trishaw was a joke or an actual historical artifact. 

One of many great pedestrian-only walkways and skyways that crisscross Bangkok.

This intersection featured all kinds of numerological graffiti.
