And it's a lovely time of year because many trees and plants begin to blossom.

Lucky winds I suppose, as the crop burning is in full swing around the country and Chiang Mai is VERY badly affected again right now.

Having owned one for several years, I have no desire to repeat the experience. Borrowing one for a 15 minute drive would be nice though.

Borrowing one for a 15 minute drive would be nice though. They're fun to drive though, like a go-kart. My brother's very first car was a Mini, and my first two cars were quasi-Minis, meaning they were Innocenti's which had a Mini chassis and engine, but an Italian, boxy-looking body. The handling of the Innocenti thus was the same as a Mini, but due to the bigger body and a back hatch with foldable backseat it offered much more space and better seating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 1 From The Tarntawan looking to The Quarter. The Quarter is the building with the trees & tanks on top, plus the slightly taller building behind the tanks. 2 From The Quarter looking to The Tarntawan 3 Looking out of my room at The Quarter. The PRIME location. 4 &5 Electric river boats on the klong by Hua Lamphong station. I read about this in the Bangkok Post, with some high ranking government officials trying the boats out when opening this new environmentally friendly transport. Complete with technology from a European supplier, not that electric drive for a boat should be difficult. Despite the trip being free, I noted about 3 other customers and customers were outnumbered about 3:1 by staff. I got my phone GPS out & confirmed the maximum speed was 6.5mph, so only slightly faster than walking. They need to rethink this, as it's OK for entertainment, but useless as a form of transport. Anyone who has been in an electric car, such as a Jaguar iPace knows electric vehicles can be very fast. 6 Boring 7 Bang Sue concrete industry support project (railway station). Photographed from the Purple Line concrete industry support project at Ta Phoon. Due to a strange piece of network design, the purple line terminates not at Bang Sue, but one stop up the blue line, so an extra change is required to join the purple line. For efficient transport it really should have run via Bang Sue. When the objective is to use concrete, efficiency doesn't matter. 8 Something else under construction by the river Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
