Bangkok Art Centre:prints and drawings exhibition

Some interesting prints and drawings plus you can buy a CD with images of all the prints and drawings.

Bangkok Bananas

Bangkok goes bananas with lots of interesting comtempory art shows.
On sunday watched the last show at the Paragon Parc with the fibre glass alien woman keeping a watchful eye over the various performances.
Although the drizzling rain could have dampened the spirits of the performers they were enthusiastic in their performances.

Hanoi

Mum and me had an early Pho for breakfast.Later we went to the Temple of Literature.
Then we went to the Ho Chi Minh mausolleum where mum had a little accident hurting cutting her head when she went to look at a model tuk tuk in a souvenir shop;the pavements are so uneven here.

Vietnam Hoi An

Lovely town- to relax in for the last part of the holiday in Vietnam!
On the first evening I ended up playing a Vietnamese version of Bingo!
On the second day went on a day trip to My Son and then on the way back we stopped at an island opposite Hoi An and visited the handicrafts workshops.
Later in the afternoon I borrowed a bike from the hotel and headed off towards the nearby beach,whihc was packed as it was the holiday weekend. The sea was a little rough and the sky overcast,grey and slightly moody;for some reason I prefer the beach like this it seems there's more atmosphere.
In the evening the town's really picturesque with all the brightly lit lanterns in the shops.

Vietnam:Dalat

Took a motorbike "City Tour" with the Easy Riders.;it's a great way to see the city and the surrounding countryside.
On the tour we visited the Chicken Village,then the Dalatana Waterfall,Paradise Lake and the nearby Mediatation temple,the Crazy House which reminded me of the architecture styles of Gaudi and Hundertwasser,the old French train station and a Chinese Temple.
