....and there shouldn't be anything wrong with that.
Willard,
you have the right idea...it is a series of climbing and traverse elements finishing with a huge swinging leap from the platform in the picture. |

| but was it in Thailand? and did you end up there because the check-in guy asked where you wanted to go and he thought you said "Phuket"? or were you just buying stuff for your import business?

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | No Schroeder,
"The pictures" were taken in Bang Sare (Thailand), just as I was completing the construction.
It was just after this that the check-in guy mistook my poor Thai pronunciation as an insult, which unbenownst to me, got me on a flight landing in a small field, in a boarder town, in Myanmar, formerly Burma. The funny part is, as I had no documentation nor permission to enter Myanmar, I was immediately arrested by local quasi-army regulars and put to forced labor in a notorious opium den in Pyu, as the Sommelier.
Due to my incidental knowledge of obscure high-end black-market German wines, I became somewhat of a local legend. With the small gratuities infrequently afforded me and by performing a truly deviant ventriloquist act, I was able to secure my freedom from the Den Marm. Great Gal. |
