Sometimes out of impulse, you do things without thinking and planning. So, Nite and myself traveled to Bangkok. Someone I meet recently told me that things are more exciting if you do it spontaneously. Too much thinking and planning, will make you afraid of the unknown.
Anyway, this picture is taken outside Bangkok’s famous Grand Palace. I didn’t do any major altering on this picture, only reshape its size to fit the blog. I’m trying to find a way to make the picture pop open in another window to show the full size picture upon clicking. Anyone knows how to do it in blogsome?

Modern and old times mode of transportation. I used to ride trishaw when I was younger in Penang. Those days, it’s pretty safe because the roads are not jam packed with cars. But now, you don’t see much local people riding trishaw. Only tourist do. Even that, they only ride at night, which is good - less traffic and the city are less hectic. If this is the first time for you to visit Penang, I think it’s a good idea to get on a trishaw. With the warm breeze of the night, the ‘ah pek’ or uncle’s operating the trishaw will show off their knowledge about Penang. Another reason to ride is that you may not have the chance to ride one in the future. Most of the trishaw peddler are nearing the age of retirement. They are the last generation of trishaw peddler, as no one wants to be a trishaw peddler anymore. It’s sad, but sooner or later trishaw peddler would be another profession of the past and trishaw would be another object in the museum.
