Daily Offering

Presented carefully, beautifully,
the offering made everyday,
to make the world in harmony
and full balance.
A beauty that lasts just a day.

Here's another version, a modern one, I spotted in a corner of a shop in Bangkok :-)

Beautiful Alphabet

Look how they put their alphabets. When we, Indonesian, could be proud of ours like Thai people do?

Faces of Buddha

Many faces of Buddha,
in a gift shop...
It always feels peaceful when you saw one.

A Shrine By The Corner

In the busy district of Ratchaprasong; stands gleaming shining a small shrine, busy with people who pray day and night.

If you make donation, the dancer will dance on your behalf, because it is believed that Buddha love dances

 Piles of flower garlands for offering..

Bangkok Love Story

You might have had experienced a lot of hotels in Bangkok, but this hotel Hyatt Erawan was my love-at first-sight.
The service might not be uber-excellent, but their attention was somehow heartfelt although a bit funny (it's from their way of speaking with thai accent, I assume )

oh I really love their pants.. anyone knows where to get that? 

Simple touch that nailed

anyway,... "breSkfast" ?

Surprise birthday cake, card slipped under the teddy bear, interesting uniform..

Seizing the city with Bangkok cab, what I found inside the car was a story for itself.
Hit the odd thai pop music ( haha ) and let's roll the streets of Bangkok!

Bangkok taxi drivers love to put things on their dashboard. From coins from many countries, pins, souvenirs and sacred stuffs. The more is the merrier.  And funny stories come mostly from the language barrier between taxi driver and the tourist. I had to ask the hotel bellboy to write down all the address that I need in Thai to show it to the taxi driver; or I would end up somewhere or nowhere.
