Santa Claus Is Coming to Thai Town


December 25, 2014
   Interesting how pervasive American culture is around the world. Here we are in the Palmer Hotel in downtown Bangkok, Thailand and in comes a Thai choir who lined up in front of the coffee machine and belted out letter perfect Christmas carols in impeccable English:

   Then we heard a heartly Ho Ho Chin Min and it was Thai Santa and his lovely helper who came into the buffet complex and gifted all the good little boys and girls a Christmas gift (I got a spring flower, Kathy got nada).

   We're off to the north country today.
