Default ITRs of Southeast Asia...

Just got back from a 2 1/2 week business trip to Southeast Asia. Had an amazing time, so I thought I'd share some of experience...

Singapore:
(sorry for the quality, took these through the back window of a moving taxi )




Thailand:
(don't know what kind of clutch this guy had, but I've never felt anything like it...)

Trip was great...we ate like kings the entire time. The food was so damn good and so damn cheap. Imagine going out to eat every night when price has no bearing on anything...lol

Maybe I'll ***** the thread out with some food and non-ITR related pics soon...

Great shots, sounds like a great trip. Were you just in Thailand, or did you visit other sites/sounnds?

yeah, I noticed that too. Not sure if it's just an optical illusion from my lense's barrel distortion, or if they were really larger in the rear. I didn't notice until I reviewed the pics...

"Bubble tea is a tea beverage of recent Taiwan origin. The term "Bubble" may refer to the tapioca ***** in the drink. These chewy tapioca *****, or "pearls," are consumed along with the beverage through a wide straw (pictured).

Bubble tea is generally split into two types: fruit-flavored teas, and milk teas. Milk teas may use dairy or non-dairy creamers. Originating in Taiwan, bubble tea is especially popular in many Asian regions such as mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. The drink is also popular in Europe, Canada, Australia and the United States."

If anyone ever goes to Bangkok, find Nathan, he's one damn fine host...I've never eaten so well and seen so many beautiful things *wink wink* in my entire life.

Cruising at 240 kmph on the freeway in his Evo isn't so bad either...
