Day 259: another festival
The comfortable beauty of my current home as well as free Wifi kept me inside - or better, at one of the covered tables in the garden - almost all day. I finally got my pictures from Bolivia sorted again and uploaded them to Hotmail's SkyDrive. After having lost another USB stick due to Bangkok's humidity, I don't want to take chances again. In the afternoon I went to watch the start of the yearly Buddha Festival. A little parade with the different sub-regions of the ...
