There is life after almost total destruction! When you think of all that the people and land have gone thru, especially in the late 60s, your photos reflect an impressive come back. Yet the scars in people and land remain. Unfortunately, hu
mans don't seem to learn much from history as the destructive cycle continues, may be not there, but elsewhere.

Bus rides do allow you to see scenery on the ground, but packed buses without air circulation can be difficult to cope with. Not too long ago, it took me 3.5 hours on a Sunday evening to go from the Tokyo AIrport to my hotel downtown via a
bus. Just traffic. When I saw a helicopter in the sky, I wondered if it was carrying some first-class passengers to their hotel. On that particular night, I could see why one would pay for such a service. It still remains a mystery to me - when you get off a long distance flight during which you have done absolutely nothing, you feel tired, very tired.

As usual, love your photos and commentary. There are some things I won't eat over there nor like to look at. But I did eat crispy grasshoppers/crickets. Durian is tasty. However, due to its smell it is banned in many hotels and on airlines.
I think it got the title "king of fruit" simply because of its smell - nothing you eat quite smells like it. And its smell can linger for days.

Your hotel looks very nice. Beautiful pictures. Looking forward to seeing more. Zelma, maybe that fan that you wear around your neck would have helped with the humidity.
