Random stuff from Thailand

Well, we're running short of time. I've only got another 10 days before we make the move to China and I haven't had any time to update the blog. There's just so much stuff left to get done before we go. I still have to sell my truck, clean the apartment and we still have to get our visas finalized. Usually Lucy would kick my ass to get me going but she's in Kenya until Tuesday so I have to motivate myself. I'm packing the Xbox as soon as I get home tonight so I won't be distracted. And for some reason, spell check doesn't want to work today, but I'm not stressing the little things, yet.

This is just a post filled with random pictures from Thailand. I have one more post about Bangkok to finish this journey and then I'll send pictures from our new home. This time, all the pictures were taken by me, except for the pictures which include me. They were taken by random strangers.

This first photo is a picture of my last tattoo. It is an homage to Bryan Hitch, one of the greatest comic book artists to ever live, and I've always wanted a Thor tattoo. It's kind of a new school twist on an old school theme. The work was done at Thai Tattoo Studio in Pattaya and I would highly recommend the shop. It got a little infected so I lost some of the ink and will have to get it touched up, but that was my fault, not the tattoo artist or his shop. I've been in hospitals that weren't that clean.

This is the original peice that the tattoo was based on. It only took 10 1/2 hours to complete.
