Re: World tour part two: Southeast Asia (4.00 / 4)

I'm as enthralled as anyone by MillMan's adventures and writing. But didn't anyone notice the disconnect between this diary written in Bangkok, and the one from Far Easterner? Was that the same city?

That's cities for you: mostly just people getting on with their lives.

A lot of it comes down to when and where I take photos and what I feel like writing about. I recognized the places in many of his photos.

For the most part, though, we were doing different things in Bangkok.

Oh, unless you were referring to the diary he wrote about the recent outbreak of violence. I managed to miss most of it, and the riots were not large.

That was my inference, that diary did make it seem the demos and violence were more widespread.
