Bringing It Into Motion

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

New fun and games. Flickr now has videos and I once again have a compact camera that takes them so…

Now Introducing: Real Live Video!

My first day cycling after leaving Bangkok.

And at the end of the day…

(The local air-con bus picked up me and my bike no problem and to my complete and total surprise charged me nilch! Nada. Zero!)

That night I realized I had a visa issue (see Thai Visa tirade/update below) and only got to cycle around town the next day while waiting for a train. Nice town though…

(Ended up hitching a ride with a German & Thai couple to Ranong from Chumpon, then going to Burma for a day and able to get a new 30-day Thai visa upon re-entry. If only someone besides the immigration office on the border itself could’ve told me the actual rules, it would’ve been a very simple process.)
