On Wednesday, Maly and I fully utilized our day to go and see the Jim Thompson House (an expat who revolutionized the Thai silk industry and then disappeared when he was 61) which was an almost traditional thai house here in Bangkok. The traditional Thai house is several individual houses joined together (and I say almost traditional b/c he added in a dining room table & decided that he needed an inside toilet beyond the chamber pot or going outside). While the house was interesting to see and the foliage was absolutely gorgeous, the best part of the day was an exhibit by some Japanese artists in one of the buildings on-site. 
One of the exhibits
was a game where 1 or 2 people put on these round bulls-eye looking over-clothes and chased images being projected on me around the room. Then, there was another exhibit where I drew a picture on a postcard and climbed to the top of a giant mound of pillows to place the picture in a mailbox. The pictures will go to another part of the world and are given out at the next exhibit. It was great sliding down the mound of pillows--Maly and I probably spent a good hour playing these games.
