(Seeing them for the first time, you expect them to be smaller. But these giant panda bears are bigger than I thought. This most famous icon of the world's endangered species need little for us to get excited over..even as they lay almost still in this specially built cooled enclosure here at the new River Safari - Kai Kai was left out for public viewing whilst Jia Jia was kept in her den, seemingly on heat and awaiting Kai Kai's attention)
(The famous Erawan Buddhist Shrine, with the 4-face Buddha, was a must-visit for us, in this 2nd trip to Bangkok, this time, solely for some R&R. Do prayers here get answered? Well, mine did!)
(The guy knows all the Hokkien expletives on stage but it's his tuneful singing of his songs, both English and Hokkien, that impressed more. He seemed better in short doses, rather than one lumpsum of 90minutes, though. But his bringing on stage a "Mini-Me Beng" stole the show...all of 8-years old. Imagine what his life will turn out to be, being exposed to all these "benging" in his tender childhood age..let's see if he pops up on stage in 20 years' time with a bigger gutter mouth than Sebastian)
