very thai is a new "feature" i'm starting on the blog...
the intention is to inspire & remind me to blog about things that are actually...well... thai. mostly because that is usually more interesting to most readers than our clean (or dirty) laundry, a sofa (however great the bargain), and maybe even puppies... so when i start to get too "domestic," please gently suggest that i return to my very thai column.
so here goes....
one of the most amusing and ubiquitous features of living here is interesting modes of transport and/or modes of transporting cargo... efficiency is key. as mike likes to say, the thai philosophy is: "if the vehicle is running, then the load is not too large."

Ah, yes. I remember this well. It's like a game. Whoever fits the most cargo on their vehicle wins. It's fascinating.
By all means, DON'T travel behind one of these obnoxiously overloaded-beasts-of-burden with your recording equipment! A double-whammied safety hazard spelling accident for sure!! Learning new ways to cover you in prayer all the time!!
