Wide Aperture Frenzy at Shopping Spree in Bangkok. Weird Characters and Extreme Close-Ups

After risking my life on the streets of Vietnam with the craziest traffic in the world, after seeing so many rats, jumping out at the last moment from under my feet in filthy alleys, after 30 days of rain during the 1.5-month stay in Da Nang, it's just amazing to return to Bangkok and set out to a shopping mall with the super clean, shiny, safe environment including those clean shiny safe bathrooms of individual designs.

The most amazing part of this is that you even don't need to have money to enjoy the glittering treasury of the modern civilization - touch everything, buy nothing. 😁 The only thing you need is good mood and a right companion to walk along that shiny clean safe maze of gorgeous Bangkok shopping malls... Look at a set of images from that reality.

So, the walk was fun! Most of it happened in CentralWorld in Bangkok downtown and led us to a Christmas tree with giant Pikachus all around:

But this is another story 😎 Thanks for stopping by, comments are welcome as always. Yours, @x-rain 🙂
