Just a few thought: Bags in Asia are so expensive when you sit at a restaurant they bring you a small table or cart just for your purse. I don't get it, the really expensive ones are made from stingray or crocodile right, aren't those animals pretty tough? I guess not tough enough for the floor. .... and it makes me feel fancy ;) It's hot here, and it's humid, and I love it. {I really am sad I didn't get a little bit more winter skiing in}. Last night the train station was particularly sticky. The heat was low and stagnant. I think I descretely smelled my arm pits every 19 seconds to see if that moldy old boat carpet smell was me, it wasn't ...at least I don't think it was.
