The Royal Barge procession


This was an amazing display of tradition and pagentry -
a bit like "the trooping of the colour" for Brits!

Sirirat Hospital


Here are some of the scenes from Sirirat hospital when the King of Thailand was there. I am signing the "Get Well" book. Many people were camping out at the hospital, they sang for the king, and presented gifts to various idols and shrines nearby.
