To give you a better
sense of day to day life for me here, I wanted to just show a few very common street scenes from yesterday.
I have written before about
motorcycle taxis. This is at a stand across the street from work and a young lady is taking off for work. No helmet and she'll be weaving in and out of traffic all the way, driving between lanes of traffic and maybe even on the sidewalks. Women in skirts just hop on side saddle.
One of our associates starts her morning by praying and
burning incense sticks at the
Fenix Tower's spirit house.
It is very common to see beggars, most disabled, along the streets. Often they play some sort of music. This man is blind. I often see a couple of other blind folks along this same stretch of
Sukhumvit, standing with a small
karaoke machine, singing Thai music. Their singing and playing just adds to the unique everyday sounds of Bangkok.
